Days 78 - 84

This post is a wee bit late (about 3 days!), but we have been pretty busy.  Friday evening we had a birthday supper for Brenda at my sisters house.  On Saturday we spent the day at a curling bonspiel with the Coghlins and didn't get back home until close to midnight.  Sunday is always a busy day around here with church, plus I spent the afternoon sewing dresses for the girls.  Then Monday was the first day of Spring Break and I spent the day catching up on all the housework I was behind on.  There's my excuses...here are the pictures.

18 March 2012 - Mike had a meeting this morning, so the kids and I met Angie and Eli at Cardel Place for the Bouncy Castle Gym Time (though this picture was taken on our way out when we paused to watch floor hockey for a minute.)

19 March 2012 - Anastasia decorating her leg with princess stickers...

20 March 2012 - John and Brenda came over today for a visit after their trip to Israel.  Jesse and Rebecca were playing on John's iPhone, and John and Mike were doing something on the iPad.

21 March 2012 - Anastasia with her fabric hair and crown!

22 March 2012 - Mike couldn't fly today because of the weather, so we went shopping at Cross Iron Mills.  The girls loved the Disney Store!

23 March 2012 - I woke up this morning to find Jesse and Rebecca doing a craft before breakfast.

24 March 2012 - John, Brenda, Dan, Chantal, Mike and I spent the day at a curling bonspiel.

Days 71 - 77

Another week already over...
11 March 2012 - Jesse and his friend, Tyler, at the park.

12 March 2012 - The rest of us were having ice cream...Anastasia wanted beans (and after she finished the beans she ate ice cream.)

13 March 2012 - Yay!  My new sprouting seeds came in the mail finally.  I've been looking forward to trying the Kamut.

14 March 2012 - Today was another day spent sewing (so much fun!)  I made the girls matching dresses from some left over material, and flower headbands from some other scraps.

15 March 2012 - Today we had a friend over for the morning while his mom was busy.  The kids had a lot of fun together (and polished off this bowl of popcorn in record time!)

16 March 2012 - Ana has been taking scraps of fabric and tying them on her head as "hair".  She even put a headband on it today.

17 March 2012 - We played a few games tonight...Jesse and I played Mexican Train, and the girls and Mike played Snakes and Ladders.

Sunday, March 11

Days 64 - 70

Pictures from our week...

4 March 2012 - The kids really, really like blueberries (well, any kind of fruit really).  I bought two of these large trays, and they were both gone within 24 hours.

5 March 2012 - Rebecca coloring with some new pens.

6 March 2012 - Rebecca and Anastasia playing on the computer.

7 March 2012 - Jesse working on a school project.  For his "book report" he made a puppet show to tell the story to his class.

8 March 2012 - Everybody wanted to come to the bus stop this morning.  I love Jesse's wink on the bottom left...and in the last picture Jesse was panicking because he could see his bus coming (no more pictures mom!)
9 March 2012 - My serger got a workout today!  I managed 3 adult shirts, 3 adult pairs of leggings, 3 kid skirts and 2 pairs of kids leggings.

10 March 2012 - Eli stayed for a sleepover tonight...and so did White Sheepie, Brown Sheepie and Otter.  :-)

Sunday, March 4

Days 57 - 63

Another busy week around here.

26 February 2012 - Jesse and his craft.  He loves getting craft books from the library and doing them all on his own...but apparently doesn't like taking a normal picture.  :-)

27 February 2012 - We dug out some umbrellas to play with today.

28 February 2012 - Jesse had a stomach bug last night, so he stayed home from school today and had a looong afternoon nap!  

29 February 2012 - The extra day in this "Project 366"!  Anyway, this is Mike getting ready to run on the treadmill..yes, with his backpack...filled with 60lbs of weight (see the hammer hanging on the side?)  Working on getting in shape!

1 March 2012 - Bouncy Castle day at Cardel Place.  It is the biggest bouncy castle I have ever seen.  The girls really like gym time at Cardel.

2 March 2012 - The kids went for a sleepover at Aunty Angie's (while Mike and I went out for supper and finally got to use a giftcard from Christmas 2010).  Eli and Jesse are "best buds" according to Jesse.

3 March 2012 - Getting doggy kisses from Ghost.
