Apparently we had a lot of time in March to play board games. Spring break wasn't until the middle of the month. I'm sure we did lots of school work and chores and important things too. ;)
But where the evidence is for that, I haven't a clue. (haha)
Matthew has been holding the spot of long standing winner of "Ticket to Ride".
Evelyn is willing to play most games with most people. She holds the spot of the most eager player of board games.
Jennifer and Daniel tried traveling through Canada instead of the US.
Yup, it's Evelyn playing a game again. She also loves card games!
I thought Daniel was cleaning up his bedroom. But I don't know...exactly what happened. Perhaps he thinks it will help to organize himself first?
We still had some skate-able ice in early March!
Matthew programmed his robot to follow a line...it was fun to watch it go around and see how sharp of a corner it could manage.
On our way to church...since Daniel is 12 he can get in the passenger seat if he is quick.
Evelyn goes into the back without a fuss. She often plans ahead and brings a book along to read. It's only a 15 minute drive...but it might be a really exciting spot and why wait until we are home again?
Jennifer always wants the best seat in the van, but she's not 12 yet, so she can't even get a turn in the front.
I demoted myself to the middle of the van once Nathan got his G2 license and I don't have to sit beside him in the front anymore. It's a nice change of scenery. (Philip usually leaves early in the car with Matthew.)
Melanie waiting patiently to get to church, wishing I'd stop snapping pics.
Matthew got a game for his birthday that involves a lot of strange and funny challenges.
Definitely wasn't expecting to blow it like that! Whoops!
See, we did spend some time doing schoolwork! (Well, it looks like Matthew did some math, anyways.)
Nathan took a rare morning off of school to drive off to some place an hour or so away and pick up a used air compressor that he found on kijiji.
Jennifer is working on her second (or third?) language here. Evelyn is enjoying her company and seeing how it works. She wants to use Duolingo as well, for learning Dutch as she is not enjoying the program she is using right now. (Duolingo works great, and it's add free on a laptop! The cellphone app version is really annoying!)
Melanie felt sorry for me one evening (or was really bored?) and played a game of Scrabble with me.
And I still have a husband. He is often sitting on the couch beside me. Busy on his phone or the laptop, probably.
Swinging in the snow!
