Winter Season

Lots happening right now at school and alas we have completely been neglecting our blog for people from far away. Winter is here and we are often bundled in long underwear and layers upon layers of clothes. Warm muslim noodles often fill our bellies, and we are thankful for quite a well working heating system. Only a few days left of school and we will leave all this cold behind which will fade into a memory as we head down south for a few days with friends, then REALLY south to India! Yes, our friend Cyriac has been asking us to come and we finally have the time, the money and close proximity to make our "one day"'s into TODAY! I am nervous but excited to explore us much as we can, and Ben should be a decent tour guide after spending a number of months as Cyriac's travel companion, long ago when they were both still bachelors. Now married, we are excited to meet his lovely wife and adorable little boys.
Heading up to these last few days of school we have been enjoying holiday festivities with the kids. The other grade one teacher and I have really enjoyed melding our classes together once again for all the fun. Here are a few shots of past and more present past. We've been making penguin adoption snow globes, reindeer hats, cookies, cupcakes and more. Such fun such fun!
