Thankful

Before Thanksgiving, I had the day off...thankful for that.


Brighton did not have the day off, so Tily and I headed out right after Brighton did, and we joined him and the students of Rose Park for chapel.

Parents are always welcome, but I normally can't go.  What a gift on this day to join students in their Thanksgiving chapel! 

THANKFUL!

A Great Restaurant

Sorry for those of you hoping to get a fabulous restaurant suggestion.  This is about our very own Walcott Diner.  

We play restaurant over here quite a bit.  This is our Saturday morning menu. Those are pancakes.   Brighton is host, server, and kitchen assistant.  Sometimes he sneaks off with the iPad, but generally he does a pretty good job.

No idea what's for dinner tonight.  I think we will be playing again though.  I hear the roads are quite icy. I love getting waited on even if it is not quite up to typical restaurant standards.

More Sports

We decided to take in a hockey game this weekend.  Just our local high school team at the Edge Ice Arena. It conveniently started at 6.  Tily and I got in for free.  It was a good time.  Good team.  Good snacks.  Good fans (even though you can't see them).  Good tunes (you can see my kids dancing below).  Good game.

Even though we had a great time, Brighton has no interest in learning how to skate.  Go figure.  He was very impressed, but they were very rough. Oh well, maybe we can show him some calmer skating soon.  Temps are cool enough for the local ice rink to freeze.  Maybe that will happen sooner rather than later.

Brighton and Sports

He is not into soccer.  Not into basketball.  Not yet anyway.  

Climbing?  It's a legit athletic activity, and the boys in this family love it.
