Taking it Easy

Even though the past week was school vacation week, it was still busy for all. Joe & I were consumed with bathroom renovation work, while Sarah and Lauren were at all-day camp everyday. While all fun, it's nice to take it easy. Pic of Joe & Lauren

President's Day

Lauren couldn't wait to show us her president's day project from school ... her 3-sided hat and book with some presidential trivia.

"Where will I find Lincoln's name or picture?"

A: $5 bill, Mount Rushmore, Lincoln Memorial, penny

Womens Ice Hockey

With two little girls, we want to show them that big girls play serious sports also. We watched Dartmouth vs. Brown in womens ice hockey yesterday. Sarah & Lauren & their friends were pretty intrigued by all the women players as they literally stood behind them nearly the entire time during the game. (Dartmouth won 2 -1!)

French Fry

Instructors are trying hard to improve the kids' skiing form. It seems to be working ... Lauren and Sarah's skiing is transforming from "wedge" to "french fry".

Happy Valentine's Day

Shells are pink,
Gates are blue,
Leaves are green,
I love you!

100th School Day

To celebrate the 100th school day, we thought we'd try to do something that was a little more interesting than bring in 100 marbles. Lauren drew a turtle with 100 turtle squares and Sarah made a crown decorated with 100 flags.

Getting Ready for Valentine's Day

Sarah and Lauren are busily working on Valentine's Day cards for their classmates.

Is Daddy In a Show?!

Cool! We all stayed up past our bedtime to watch daddy Joe give a toast to the lassies during the Tuck Scottish event. Watching all these men wear skirts was pretty fun too.
