The chocolate exhibit was really interesting! We brought chocolate to eat afterwards - we knew we would crave it!

syrup and sculptures
We made our trek to Parker's Maple Barn with our friends Maddy and Hannah! It was the first day of syrup-making for the year.
Afterwards we went to a sculpture park in the woods. It was muddy and wet but we had fun exploring the sculptures!
spring preview
The past few days have been very warm! Most of the snow has melted. I made iced coffee to bring to the playground!
Even Westie wanted to venture outside.

telephone
It was fun to help Jane's class do experiments with string and cup telephones. The kids were surprised they actually worked! It turned out using plastic cups and fishing line worked best.
Valentine's Day 2017
The kids always love exchanging valentines with their classmates! This year they made bookmarks. They decorated them with stickers.
In the afternoon we had veggies and dip to offset the chocolate fondue we were going to have for dinner. I thought the raspberries tasted the best in the chocolate! Jane liked the rice krispy squares and apples the best. Malcolm's favorite was the marshmallows!

100th day celebration
I was happy to help with a caterpillar craft in Malcolm's class for the 100th school day, but not happy to drive home in the snow afterwards! The second graders travelled back and forth to different rooms for all the activities.
fourth grade concert
Jane is playing trumpet this year and we were all excited for her first concert! She practiced that afternoon.
She was way in the back so we couldn't see her, but it was fun to listen!
During the chorus portion, she had a dancing part. It was cute! She helped me paint the t-shirts the girls wore.

We've been waiting for this brewery to open nearby and it finally did! We went twice in the first week.
half-day
The kids had a half-day last Friday. Nate and Jane skiied all afternoon! She rode the chair lift for the first time and she loved it!
I took Malcolm and Milo bowling. They had fun!
