Mama Watches Ringette

Mama proudly attended her first ringette game yesterday.

Because their games usually fall on the weekend when I work, I don't watch many of their games. In fact, it was the first one this season. It fell on a pedagogical day, and very early in the morning. We were up at 6am for a 7 o'clock start. The girls did very well, one playing offence, and the other defence. The little one spectated with me. My 9-year old scored the first goal of the game that they eventually lost 8-10. Here are some photos:

More Winter Fun

I was certain that the snow would melt, but not only do we still have snow, but several ski hills have opened. Two of the three girls grew enough to require longer skis, and they will be adjusted next week...

Winter Came Early

The kids were overjoyed to see snow last week. I, on the other hand, was scrambling to get the winter tires on our vehicles. I have accepted that winter has come early this year, but I will also be expecting spring to come early next year...

She Lost Her First Tooth

Our littlest one, now 6 years old, lost her very first tooth on November 1. Here are the before and after photos:

Happy Halloween From the Three Little Superheroes

They flew through the night, weathering the rain and the wind, searching for sweet treats. They went door to door, hats on their heads and capes on their shoulders. My three little superheroes filled their bags, then returned home for a warm bath and a sugary meal...
