Cody and Tyler take part in the 1st BBC kids tournament

I organized a kids badminton tournament this year. We only had 4 entries this year, but it was a start and hopefully next year we will have a few more entries.  We had round robin doubles and round robin singles and everyone had a good time.  Everyone got a trophy so they all went home happy.

Icecream on a snowy day!

Tyler and Cody were invited for ice cream today. Nevermind that it was super snowy and freezing. Everyone enjoyed it!

Snow Day

The boys got their first Snow Day this year.  It is really unusual to shut the schools down, but we had a foot of snow in a short period of time and so we got a text this morning telling us the schools were shut for the day.

The boys spent the morning playing iPad and the afternoon making igloos.

Even the deer were out in the snow

Tyler completes his gingerbread man

Tyler is suddenly the king of gingerbread and wants to decorate at any opportunity. We were invited to the markers for Pizza and gingerbread making and although Cody wasn't particularly interested, Tyler was more than happy to decorate.

Halfway through?

Letters from Santa

The boys went to the mailbox today, and they each got a letter from Santa in reply to the ones they sent.

Here they are with their letters.

Cody and the family

Cody had his family pot luck and sing along at Hulstrom this week.  The kids did a picture of their family as the backdrop.  Here is Cody's version of the Millser family. Not sure why Siew Gin had a space helmet on!

Pretty good proportions!

Christmas Decorations

The boys have been asking for a week to put up the decorations, and today we finally got around to decorating the tree.  They enjoyed looking at the old ornaments we had, and were super excited about finishing it off. There main concern is how Santa will deliver the presents now we don't have a chimney.
