Our sweet girlies
This afternoon Hendrik had Jack Rabbits (cross country skiing for the small set). It was his first time of skis. He had a blast! Afterwards, he and I went for hot chocolate at a local shop that was also having its grand opening today - hello yummy goodies and a beautiful ceramic travel mug freebie! Hendrik, Emma, and I also checked out a brand new shop this afternoon in town. Much more exciting for me than either of them - a women's clothing store! I've always admired the owner's sense of style and her clothing, so I was thrilled to hear that she was opening up a shop. I picked out an awesome tunic and a funky silver necklace today. I will be back again, sans children, to take a better look and find some pants to match. Love, love, love! While I was out with the eldest and the youngest, Dwayne kept an eye on the middle two. Riley and Abby had a great time fashioning cakes out of Play-Doh and Dwayne milled more lumber for the addition (I will have to get some photos tomorrow of he and the mill in action). Tonight we are watching Star Wars Episode III with the kiddos. It may be too much for the girls, we'll see. Hendrik is beyond excited. He goes to bed with a Star Wars book every night and Dwayne gets asked a multitude of Star Wars questions when he gets home from work each evening. Off to enjoy some BBQ'd burgers before we settle in on the couch with our movie.
