February Winter Break Week

This week Trent and Landon had their Winter Break from school. Luckily we had a few nice days outside as the weather was sunny and a bit warmer! On Friday the temperature reached 55 F which is the warmest day since we have been living here. This week we have been trying to stay busy playing both inside and outside and visiting a few fun kid places here in Aberdeen. The boys have been enjoying bike riding through the neighborhood most days. The terrain here with all the hills makes it a little more interesting. We've had several falls with scrapes and bruises but they always get back up and are ready to ride again. They enjoy riding their bikes to the park or playground and to get snacks at the "Coop" which is like a convenience store in our neighborhood. Its really close to our house. We played at an indoor play area called "Hoodles Playbarn". On Thursday Trent and Landon had their first golf lesson at Kippie Lodge here in Aberdeen.  Coach Craig was a lot of fun.They really enjoyed it and can't wait until their lesson next week! Scotland is the birthplace of golf and with so many amazing golf courses here we all hope to start playing some in late Spring. Today we went to a birthday party for their friend Brantley Hollis at the "Foam Factory". This was their first time to go to attend a party where you shoot foam balls everywhere. It was lots of fun!

We have some new pets in the house! This week Trent and Landon convinced us to get a fish tank and fish. On Thursday we bought the tank and set it up and had to wait a couple of days to add the fish. So today we went to Dobbies Garden Centre and picked out some fish that we were advised would be easy to care for and would last for a while. The boys named them Jack, Cleo and Leopard. They came up with these on their own. The fish are very active fish so they are already having lots of fun watching them.
