We have some catching up to do!  With Cliff on crutches for the last 6.5 weeks, blog posting has taken a back seat.  We’ll try to get back on track.

Nothing quite like time with cousins!  We enjoyed our Thanksgiving weekend in Hamilton!

I have been to the stock exchange a few times as part of my job.  It’s always pretty cool down on the trading floor.

Colin spontaneously decided to write a letter to his friend Zachary the other evening.

The kids had the day off today to go to the state fair. Laura headed there with some friends and Colin and I met with a friend and played at an indoor playground with climbing structures, rides (mall level easy rides), and an arcade full of fun games. 

They each had a great day!

This week the kids school celebrated International Day of Peace. 

Laura got to share what peace was to her in front of the whole school. 

(She’s at the 3:00 mark)

This week we had to go to the dentist. Colin seems to be turning into a shark and Laura is losing teeth left and right. 

The dentist said they both look healthy and all looks good for now. 

The kids are so creative when left to their own devices…

Colin and I went for a special ice cream date while Laura had some play time with her friends. 

I’m not sure what the story was, but it obviously needed dramatic eye rolling. 

It was a hot day and the kids really needed to get moving. This is one of their favorite places. Laura practiced skateboarding for about an hour and Colin showed me his attempts at the “wall”. He did make it up when he wasn’t paying attention to the camera.
