There is no doubt it has been cold this winter and it's Canada, we expect that. What I don't love is the cold and no snow. It just makes things annoying when you have nothing to play in and you need to skate across the field to get to school, without skates. This week we had some bitterly cold days, but we also had the return of snow. Yay! That means everyone wants to play outside. And we wrapped up the weekend with some fun Valentine pictures.

My Funny Valentine

This week we lost a pet. A fish. Her name was Pink and she is dearly missed by our youngest. She hadn't been doing so well for the last few weeks and gave up the fight on Monday. Fairies were contacted in the hopes that they might revive her. Alas, they left two notes saying that while they tried, it was to no avail and Pink is buried in Fairyland.

Birthday Party exhaustion

This week had some cold days and a little girl with an earache one day. We filled them with school and baking and the usual crafting that occurs here on a daily basis. Someone is also trying to round up 100 pennies for her 100th day of school. This means she scavenged every bank she could find in the house one morning. We have 40 so far. :)

Sunday treat

The first week back at school and into our regular routine. We threw in some winter fun as we did manage to get a dusting of snow. Just enough to get a small sled hill going on the steps. The pictures are fairly uninspired, but at least there is one for everyday. Our week in a nutshell.
