ice skating

Last week we had a playdate with one of Malcolm's friends from school. He has his own skating rink and the boys had a lot of fun skating, pushing each other over and pulling each other on a sled!

Later in the week we went to the town's rink to skate. Jane hadn't been skating since last winter but she remembered how!

better her than me...

Westie in the dirty laundry!

Malcolm had a blast at a classmate's gymnastics party on Saturday.

bowling and arcade

We met our friends Lindsay, Rosalie and Nolan to go bowling. The kids did really well and had a good time!

They even set up bowling at home the next day!

Jane has started to like basketball a lot better!

She scored two baskets during the scrimmage.

vacation

We had a good winter break this year. We visited several museums and had lots of days at home for the kids to play with legos and all their presents.

We also went out for brunch one day. The kids got French toast!

I got a lot of knitting done!

Nate and Malcolm made pumpkin chocolate chip muffins with his new cookbook and baking cups. They were delicious!

We spent a day at the Museum of Science.

Right after the kids got out of the lunar module we ran into some friends from school! That was an exciting coincidence.

Just the other day we met some friends at the Discovery Science Museum. Jane and Malcolm love the mixing studio.

Malcolm and Hannah built a house together.

It finally snowed and Jane played out in it!
