Snow Day and Dinner with Friends

The week went by as a blur: Adam was in Belgium, Ayson had a concert Tuesday night, Amy a meeting on Wednesday AND no school on Friday for the kiddos due to SNOW!!  We had a holiday dinner with Annie and Bob on Sunday and Adam finally got to try out our new stove!!!  We hope that our family and friends are healthy and enjoying time with close friends and family!


We made chocolate mound drop cookies on Monday :)



Luckily, the kids are easily impressed by simple treats.


On Tuesday, we went to Ayson's band concert - the kids did a great job!


Friday was a snow day for the kiddos!  The both played outside and made snow people.



This is the same child that hates being cold...


She said she was warm enough!


Last session of of ice skating lessons for 2022.  Addie will start again in January - she has much more confidence on the ice!


Adam was in Belgium last week and he came home with yummy chocolate!


The snow was not good for making big snowballs but Addie persisted!


Addie had two sticks going through her snow person and she even added leftover tomato sauce for blood.


On Sunday, Adam and the kids decided to test out the new oven and they made an apple pie!


Look at that smile :)



We had a date with Mr Bob and Ms Annie and we took the pie as a treat!
The kiddos watched Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer while Adam  gave a run down of his trip to Belgium to the adults in the greenhouse.


The Teenage Mutant Ninja turtle (Ayson gave Ms Annie the red one many years ago) is still in the greenhouse.

The pie!


After dinner drink


Ms Annie and Mr Bob gave us all gifts: a hand drawn picture of the chipmunks for Addie and meditation balls for Ayson (he likes the ones in the greenhouse).  PLUS the kids received a snowman kit complet with hat, scarf, buttons, and carrot nose.  Thank you!


AND Mr Bob built a fire bellows for us - thank you SO much!
