The ice skates

The children experienced ice skating for the first time on Monday and even Mick skated for the first time in about 20 years!  The sun was shining and it was a beautiful day!

This is what the lake looks like now - it is hard to believe it was just water a few weeks ago!

Merry Christmas!

I can't believe it is Christmas eve today!  I hope Santa remembers where we are living now as there are two very excited little girls hoping he comes to drop some gifts in here.  Merry Christmas everyone!

The children performed in the school concert and it was fantastic.  French and English Christmas songs were performed and it was lovely - well done everyone!

Mick has been clearing the snow off the lake ready for the ice skating - how exciting!  

An award

We were invited to the school assembly on Friday afternoon and it was well worth the trip.  Mya was presented with an award by the principal.  The certificate was to recognize outstanding character.  We are all very proud of you - well done Mya!
