Laurences letter to the museum from yesterday......this is the photocopied copy (for his portfolio) and it seems to have cut off part of each line so thats why some of the words don't look quite right lol!

sledding again!
Abigail and Laurie have been out sledding this afternoon....Abigail didn't stay out qwuite as long but Laurie was out for ages, came in to warm up and then headed back out again. The snow is a little too deep on the hill right now so Laurie is working at creating a bob sled slope thingy by digging a trough through the snow - it works well! The dogs enjoyed watching :)
Gingerbread house craft........
Here is the gingerbread house that Susannah is busy making.......the instructions can be found in this months Family Fun magazine!!! I will add some pictures of the finished house when it
it's done!!!
In a slump...
I think maybe we are still all getting over that bug ew had last week......it has left a few of us feeling really lethargic and fed up. No motivation to do anything......
I am glad we have a lot of plans this weekend...hopefully that will kick my butt into action.....and maybe tomorrow we will head out too and get out of this place! A change of scene might be in order...
It is going to be a LONG winter....I am so glad we will have two weeks of being in the sun come January - it will be a welcome break from the snow :) Much needed :)
This afternoon the children went out sledding for a while making the most of the warmer temps for the day......Susannah is makinga gingerbread house from a cardboard box, following the instructions in the Family Fun magazine....
I have been very lazy and sat and read my Redbook magazine.......I should go for a walk or something. Maybe I can persuade Lloyd to come home early and we can go out on the quads for a ride and some fresh air......I should go out for na walk but I just feel so tired.....I ahven't had my iron either which I know I need :( My anaemia is quite bad atm.......that doesn't help :(
I will take a pic of Susie with her gingerbread house....

Thursday
Chris is at work...Lloyd took him as the roads are bad...I have been threading strings onto baubles/ tree ornaments.......haven't done much else so have to go do something!!! I did email my wish list to Lloyd so he can go shopping!
Susie is learning about synonyms and writing riddles too. Laurence is making a lapbook about space suit technology. Abigail is using her kindergarten cd rom downstairs.
Sam has been playing with my button tin...scattering the buttons everywhere but having fun!
Lloyd is so funny - he has been shopping like crazy this week - for himself!!!! Well, he did bring me home a lovely bottle of perfume, but everything else was for himself which is really nice because he never buys himself anything! This week he bought himself three new pairs of shoes, two new sweaters and a really nice dark brown corduroy jacket...the funny thing is that he is buying this because of the movie The Lake House....he really likes the style of the Keanu Reeves character Alex! So he has been looking for clothes in a similar style....
He looks gorgeous in the jacket :)
He says he just has this mad impulse to shop!!!! So I sent my wishlist lol!
