School Begins

We have been enjoying our time with the grandkids. We've been to hockey practises, hockey games, birthday parties and such. We've been to the park, been to the grocery store, been out for walks, read books, made suppers, watched movies, and pretty well had a full weekend. We had a big turkey dinner on Saturday (with all the trimmings) and have almost finished all the turkey fixins'. The kids are definitely 'finished' with turkey! So, last night, John made his juicy hamburgers and everyone enjoyed them with salad and veggies (everyone has to have at least 3 pieces - apple, cucumber, strawberries). We ate about 5:30-5:45 pm and at 7:30 we were ready for a snack of ice cream, and a selection of either strawberries, bananas or chocolate sauce. Some opted for all three! Bed time went smoothly about 9 pm with individual prayers for each child. That's my favourite time!

This morning everyone was up early as they are having pictures taken today at school. We had Eggo's for breakfast and fruit and made up their individual lunches and they wanted to leave early so all were gone by 8:20 am! The walk to school is quite the adventure with grampa along!

Here's a few pics.
