Thursday:

Such a happy girly

Friday:

Both of Credo's senior volleyball teams made it to provincials this year and we watched as many of the games as we could. 

We were enjoying a slow Friday morning so the kids watched the first game in their pjs while eating breakfast. 

Saturday:

Even Clara was interested to see what was going on

We had the tv working double time for a bit while the girls game went on a bit longer and the boys game got started. 

Peter smashed several set winning points which we were all very impressed by

Peter's team won provincials which was very exciting for everyone, especially since they were played in Abbotsford so they had a good crowd cheering them on. Anneke, on the girls team, came in second, not too bad for a provincial tournament either. 

Delilah and William got invited to a birthday party for their friends on Saturday afternoon. So much giggling from that group! 

Sunday:

I left cat-napping Clara, and not-a-fan-of-snow James with Will on Sunday afternoon and went outside to play in the snow with the two oldest! 

We built a fun sledding track in the snow and had a great time together

Monday:

I made him put pants on before we left the house. 

Tuesday:

Although it was raining outside, for school we painted snowy skies as part of our study of The Tailor of Gloucester. The kids first drew snowflakes and dots with a white crayon on the paper and then painted over them with blues and purples and the crayon shows through the paint. 

James likes to sit near Clara to show her pictures from the books he's reading. He doesn't want to hold Clara like the older kids do, but he shows his love and bonds with her in other ways which is special to see.
