Sunday play: the Park and Riding Bikes

Max and Bruno at the park...a favourite past time.






















Bruno has a new bike!!! Now both boys are riding their bikes. We've finally graduated from a tricycle to a two wheeler. Now, we have to get Max off the training wheels-yikes!






True brotherly love..in between the arguments and tears, Max and Bruno have a great fondness for each other and a great bond!!!!

Max's Kindergarten Class

So few images of Max's class. The themes in Kindergarten are Bears, and Dinosaurs for January and February! It is still hard to believe that Max is in Kindergarten, and on his way.

Valentine's Day


Valentine's Day is becoming such a big celebration these days...preschool parties, kindergarten parties, lots of candy, and mom making 50 valentine's for the boys. I should have just bought the tacky ones at Safeway!!!!

We had a great day... we hope everyone had fun, and thanks for all the valentines and chocolates!!!!!

Playing in the Park: It feels like Spring for a Day


First, we have hot chocolate, and then we venture to the park























Bruno can finally climb up the chain on his own, wearing his red converse shoes



























Max jumping....like a superhero!

Skiing Lessons in the Sunshine








Here we are at Mount Seymour, watching Max take lessons.
He graduated from the "den" to the rope tow. Here he is with his instructor, waiting to ski down the hill.












The kids have to show they can make their "pizzas" to stop and "french fries" to stand in the learning area.











Putting on his skiis, and getting ready to go. We can't wait to get both of them up the chairlift!!

Back to Work






For those of you who don't know, I have moved jobs to a new school.


This was a module called "Art and Poetry Connections" and I worked with a great group of grade sixers.


So, here's my room!!!!
