Christmas Concert

Tonight was Robin's kindergarten Christmas concert.  In years past, the concert was for JK, SK, grade 1 and 2.  This year they limited it to just JK/SK, and there were still 300 or so people in the audience (they even auctioned off front row seats, purchased by our neighbours!).  It was very cute.  Between chatting with her friends, Robin belted out a half dozen Christmas songs.

Big Sister

I overheard the girls in Abby's room getting Robin ready for her Christmas concert tonight. So cute seeing Abby "fixing up" her little sister!

Santa!

Ginger Bread Houses

Advent Calendar!

Skating Lessons

Beth and I were able to get over and watch Abby at her Monday skating lesson. Wow, it's amazing how quickly kids improve!

Academic Achievement

Christmas Letters

Abby got pretty specific on what she wanted (martengale? who knew that was a part of a horse's gear!)

And here's Robin's...

Sleepover Letter

Abby is staying the night at Nana's. She's very into writing stories and letters:

My Date

I'm taking my big girl out for dinner and a movie. We walked down to the theater, and Abby said "who needs a car!". We're going to see Planet 51 and walk home in the dark!

Carving Time

Halloween #1 - School Dress Up

Dracula and our local vet are ready for the festivities at school today!

Thanksgiving

Unfortunately we didn't make the list on Abby's "thankful for" list. Bugs rejoice!

Ride to the lake

We just rode to the lake - the girls rode on their own for the first time. Very impressive. Just as we got here, we passed a group of riders that were riding with some of the Cervelo pro tour team including Heinrich Haussler who won a stage of the Tour de France this year. Very cool.

Toy Story and Chutneys. Perfect saturday night!
