A Chill (and Chilly) Week

After the long weekend for Veterans' Day, we quickly found our routine again.  RJ had his field trip on Wednesday, and I tagged along.  I don't have any pictures to prove it because 1) RJ wanted me there but didn't want me to be too close, and 2) it was tooooo coooooold to get my phone out of my pocket.  Thankfully the field trip was Wednesday and not Thursday--Thursday was chilly and miserably rainy.  

The weather cleared on Friday.  As we were walking home from the bus stop, we ran into our new next door neighbors.  It turns out their daughter is also a third grader.  She immediately accepted our invitation to come play and the kids had a great time.

On Friday evening, the kids went to a kids' night out at Sylvan Learning Center.  It turns out a former BrickHeadZ employee now runs some of the programming at Sylvan, so the kids knew exactly what to expect and had a great time.  We look forward to doing it again when it is offered.

Over the weekend, we did our usual ballet and Ninja Zone, but found time to do some serious cleaning of the playroom and was able to move our old desktop computer to the playroom for Minecraft and maybe the occasional school project.

This week is short due to Turkey Day.  But, we plan on packing it with some decorating for the holidays and a few odds and ends to keep ourselves busy.  As always, pics to come.  Until next time, cheers!
