So today we went to Earls and used the gift card that Rob and Rita gave us to Christmas. I think that they must have put something on her drink because she was wired after.
We are also getting a lot of snow. Perhaps this is why my head has hurt all day.
Face Painting.
I had promised Kendra that we would do facepainting on Friday with real paints as that is all we had. But Friday rolled around and Kendra was tired and so was I. On Saturday morning when I got up she was playing with what I thought were pastels that she had got from her daycare. Then I looked more closely and noticed they were face paints! First she painted mine and then her own and then Daddy's. She had a lot of fun. She didn't want to wash it off when Daddy took her out so she went out looking like this! This was a perfect gift for her.
Our Tree is up!
We went out to get our tree tonight. It's a real tree, but it was so expensive. Why do we pay 80 dollars for a tree? I don't like fake ones, but this is getting ridiculous. Kendra helped pick it out. Actually she just ran around the lot shaking the snow off the trees... LOL.
She is really loving snow. When I arrived at daycare, she and her friends were sticking snow on a tree trunk. When we got home, she didn't want to go in so we played in the front yard and made more ice-cream castles in the snow for about half an hour.
So much fun.

Medicine Hat is a Slippery Mess.
Woke up today hoping for a snow day, but no such luck. Kendra had so much fun yesterday that it would have been nice to play all day today. It just didn't happen. The roads were a mess this morning. I realized when it was hard to get out of the driveway. Well, the driveway was clear, it was the little section between the road and the driveway that was bad. Turning onto 20th would have been OK if I didn't have a 4 year old wanting her granola bar opened. Before I turned onto Parkview, there was a car attempting the turn before me. It missed the turn and went down the turn left lane, got to the light and then turned right. Traffic was going 8km down the hill. I stayed in the slow lane across the bridge because I didn't want to have to change lanes later. I was glad when Kendra and I got to school about 20 minutes later than usual.
Kendra's class didn't go outside today because other kids didn't bring snow pants and proper clothing for the weather. They said they would try tomorrow when it was warmer.
We went outside after dinner again. John took Kendra on the saucer around the block and then Kendra and I built a snow castle in the front. Kendra decided that she likes snow castles better than sand castles because they get built fast and they are just so much fun.
That's it for today!

Winter has arrived.
It started snowing this afternoon. Kendra and I went out back and played and played. The snow was really wet so we got soaked. After dinner, John wanted to shovel the driveway and walks so Kendra and I came too. It ended up with me shoveling and Kendra and John playing. We had a blast.
Winter is arriving.
I say 'arriving' because I don't believe it is quite here, but there was a dusting of snow on the ground today. Kendra was excited about using her new boots. They even light up when she steps. She got her scarf, hat, gloves and boots on this morning without having to be nagged. She showed everyone her boots when she arrived. She was so proud of them. She wanted to wear her snow pants but finally agreed to just take them to school in case she went outside.
She's smart
When I went to go pick up Kendra, one of her teachers told me that Kendra has been playing with Cameron a bit more which makes sense because he's intelligent too. Cool. My daughter picks smart men.
Also, she is adding more and more. She can do:
1+3=
3+4=
4+5=
9+3=
4+4+2=
I'm so proud of her. She finds minus more difficult, but can do it if I use the words 'take away'. What a braniac. I'm so proud of her.
