February Family Update

So, what have we been up to lo these many days?

1. Cleaning up - Once a year for a month we get the "opportunity" to serve our local church by setting up and cleaning up for the snacks and/or potluck we have. The reason this man is smiling is because this was the last wipe before turning the keys over for 11 months! Actually, it's not all that hard, especially since we have such a hard-working team.


Chris has been firing fuzzy green projectiles (aka tennis balls) at 2-4 metres with his friend Dexter in preparation for the Science Olympiad next week. With help from Dex's dad, I think this tennis ball catapult is ready for launch!


Kelly is our gymnast extrordinaire! Her hands are covered with callouses, and she's got more than her share of bumps and bruises, but that's only because she lives on these and the money bars every day at recess. We got to watch her "do her stuff" the other day and got a couple shots.

Finally it was Valentines (the day of love, as Kelly calls it). Stacey (not pictured) broke out her artistic skills to give the kids a couple life-sized cards - complete with real and candy kisses!
