Last winter was so mild that we did not expect that much snow this time around. It snowed so much that school was cancelled for 4 days! Alex enjoyed sledding down the hill at school for the first time but Sophie is still not so sure about this cold stuff and would rather stay home.
Just a little snow to remove here and there...
1, 2, 3, here we come!
Snow everywhere
Fou-rire en luge
Sledding at my school rocks!
Let's throw some snowballs to the photographer!
Too cold to get out. I'd rather snuggle with my bunny (doudou rose)
Papa came to my school to help my classmates and I celebrate Valentine's Day this year. Got to make a cool box to collect all my Valentine's cards and candies. A girl gave me a Barbie card. What was she thinking! I guess she didn't know I'm not so much into dolls but rather into cars...
With my friends Daniel and Violet
What about a cheese-free environment at school, guys?!?
We celebrated Tet - Vietnamese new year - this past weekend. We went to the Catholic church and experienced our first mass all in Vietnamese. Sophie couldn't wait for the lion dance to start at the end of the service. We had some great spring rolls, pho and noodles. Now every time we go to a party, Sophie asks whether we'll see lions or dragons there.
After the year of the dragon, we're starting the year of the snake - which is Alex's new passion. He loves to read about king cobras, boa constrictor, green mambas, rattlesnakes, bush vipers and pythons to name a few. He couldn't believe that aunt Linda didn't have a favorite snake though. What's up with that?!?
Here are the other fun things we did in the past couple of weeks.
I tried my first barrettes on. Don't I look girly now?
Good looking brioche there. Happy birthday, mama!
Going ice skating for the first time
I had to hire an assistant to help me. This is way too slick!
Go, Alex, go!
Lion dance Vietnamese style
Waiting for my balloon
Those boys drive me nuts...
I would rather sit with mama to escape the madness
