Whooooosh-A-Bahhhhhh!!!!!

Charlie's class has been learning about the West African drums. So we dropped by the school for a little performance. It's really cool.
Above, they take a deep breath and raise their hands up, then put their hands together and bow, while saying "Whoooosh-A-Bahhhhh!"
"Gooon-doh......Gooon-DOH! ....."

"Whooooosh-A-Bahhhhh"!

"Drums down"!
Ashley and Dad, watching.

Hugs from sister!
The next few photos were taken when we got that big dump of snow. Just before, it dipped below -30!!

Everything looked so beautiful!


I love to hear the words..."can we go play outside?" Yes!!!!!!! It's been way too cold lately, but I can't wait to send them out! I remember being little and all bundled up and loving to be out in the snow.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!!!!

YAY!!!!! I'm so happy that it snowed today!!!!!
It's a real winter wonderland out there. It totally got me into the Christmas spirit! Calgary was starting to look a little drab. It's amazing how the snow can make anything beautiful!
We took the kids to Stanley Park today for some toboggining. it was so much fun!






"Wheeeeee"!!!
I love this photo of Charlie. He was in awe of all the sledders! (Peter and Ash are in the background).

Strike a pose!
Charlie loves a good snowball fight! Beware!
