Well, it's almost the end of February, and we're waiting for the snow to melt. We've had a pretty mild winter, but I'm ready to start planting my garden :0) Although, after that last snow we had, it will be awhile.
Last week, our school division had February break, so Rebekah, and I, had the entire week off. It was great to be home with Bek's & Chloe. We didn't do much, since I'm still trying to get over a cold that I've had for the past 6 weeks. Last week was also Glynn's last week of school. He is now a third year apprentice! I think he finished with about an 80. He won't receive his official marks for a bit, but he's glad to be done. This year was much harder than last year.
Now he'll be staying home with the girls for the next couple weeks, until construction starts up again. This morning he got to get Rebekah ready and take her to school. With my schedule this semester, I have to be on the road by 8:00. Then he and Chloe spent the morning steam cleaning the carpet.
This weekend was a big one for our family. Melissa turned 16! She got to celebrate by spending the weekend at YQ, which is a big youth retreat weekend at the school that happens every February. Basically, it involves several thousand teenagers, bands, games, speakers and very little sleep for two days. Sunday we went to Boston Pizza to celebrate her birthday. We gave her a new bedding set for her room, and Harajuku perfume, which unless your're a teenager, probably doesn't mean much to you. And for dessert, we had oreo cookie cake, complete with candles and singing.
