Dave and my school had a mid-term break two weeks ago, my apologies for the delayed posting. We pulled the boys from school on the Friday and headed up to spend the weekend at the cottage with Grams and Claw. It was a chilly but gorgeous weekend. It snowed, with little to no accumulation, but it was pretty none-the-less. Reading, writing, drawing pictures and even colouring on ourselves, some tv, BananaGrams, games, roaring fires, baking, wood chopping and piling and laughter made the weekend a fantastic time for everyone. We had an early celebration of Kieran's rapidly approaching birthday which delighted him. Quinn vowed he would wear his Jamaica hat all weekend long, which he did! Many thanks to Grams and Claw for taking us in and sharing your time and gorgeous space with us. xxoo
