Catching up over lunch with my cousin:

Second goal of the season!

When your daughters ask you to join them for a 6:00am work out at the gym you go because you are thankful to be asked...

First goal of the season and I gave him my free Starbucks reward-an egg nog frap as a reward...and a bribe for this photo:

Packing up these reusable cloth bags for another year....

I was completely spoiled not only today by my family but also in the 12 days leading up to today by my awesome husband with these numbered gifts:

12 earring backings

$11 Starbucks card

Some things from La Senza to make me feel like a "10"

9 cans of my new favourite drink

8 socks to keep my feet warm

$7 gift card for Menchies

6 bottles of lime picapop (another of my favs)

A bottle of Iced Java which is my 5 day work week breakfast

4 razors

3 bottles of hand santizer

2 flavours of tictacs

1 giant Toblerone chocolate bar

Surprising Kiandra at work this morning:

These guys did some shovelling this morning after a major dump of snow happened overnight.

12/22/2015

I'm not really an outside kind of girl but I did enjoy the afternoon with Kezia and my nephews tobogganing at the park. The -7 degree temperatures sure helped me enjoy it more than I usually would have!

12/21/2015

Kezia and I did some Christmas shopping at the mall this afternoon...

12/20/2015

The over 6 hours at the spa today really were relaxing after such a busy couple of weeks.

12/19/2015

Christmas table set for 12 this evening as we hosted my side of the family for dinner this evening.

12/18/2015

Getting another year of twinsies from our matching shirts we bought on clearout a few years ago during our annual spring trip to the States.

Kaden's broomball team won for best team spirit today and he showed up at my school looking like this:

12/16/2015

We added these 2 feet to our school staff family when we showered a new mom (and former teacher for all three of my kids) and her new son with gifts and snuggles.

Conrad snapped this picture of Kaden's snap chat. Kaden is all dressed up for formal day at his school.

Most of Kezia's friends have an easy week this week. Kezia's teacher have decided that this week will be a busy week of tests and assignments...

12/13/2015

These girls finished their first ever time working together and celebrated by getting take-out pancakes and French toast after their shift.

12/12/2015

Support letters are getting ready to be sent out for Kezia and Kaden's upcoming youth mission trip to Mexico this summer....

12/11/2015

Two of Kaden's projects for his electronics course. The blinking light project came home today and the remote control car came home a few weeks ago.

12/10/2015

Kaden and his friend Jen attend their high school's production of West Side Story this evening. It worked out perfectly for me because I had to stay at that end of the city for our school's concert anyway so it wasn't even an extra trip to go back and get him. Jen's family invited us for supper and then her Dad drove them to the musical and I drove her brother to our school concert. I got to be the chauffeur to drive Jen home after the musical ended.

Kiandra's snap chat of her walk home from work today...

Pretty amazing view for December 9!!

12/8/2015

Trying to finally catch up on my late blog posts and Princeton thinks this is the perfect spot to come and lie down...

12/7/2015

Kaden was just a little bit excited to cash in his free 7th drink today. Or maybe it was the warm temperature (3 degrees) that prompted this face!

12/6/2015

Got a special Christmas letter and card in our church mailbox today from these awesome 7 girls:

Seven sisters from three families really have a great time together. My kids have awesome friends.

12/5/2015

Kiandra worked here this morning and Kezia had her work orientation here this afternoon. Kezia's first training shift is on Monday...

My grade 1 families spoil me...this was given to me by a parent after school:

I am blessed and lucky to have a daughter come to volunteer for the day to stuff portfolios and help out with other random jobs in my classroom. It was her first day without university classes or work and she decided to spend the day with my class.

12/1/2015

These two...Christmas shopping at the mall while Kaden is at hockey dry land training.
