Spring (or Winter?) Break!

We wrapped up Nathalie's winter session of gymnastics on March 17.  Normally, she is so shy about getting her certificate in front of the class, but this time, she marched right up and shouted YES!  (Hence the fuzzy picture...I wasn't exactly prepared for her to be so brave!)  Way to go, Nathalie!

And then, spring break began!  We started it off in a big way in the Zabikow house...with sugary cereals that are "banned" during the rest of the year when you're trying to send them off to school with something decent in their tummies.  Ben was in cereal heaven!

 

Sadly, we didn't see much "spring" during spring break.  In fact, it snowed nearly every day and was quite cold.  But, we made the best of it with playtime in the snow, watching icicles form on our windows, bowling, and other indoor fun.  The weather warmed up enough (and by that, I mean in the 30's and 40's) for Greg and Ben to enjoy a boy's day skiing at Nakiska.  When Canada hands you snow...make snowmen or ski!



Over the break, Greg and I were able to sneak away to Charcut Roast House for an amazing dinner and date night.  Good wine, good food, handsome hubby and great conversation...life doesn't get much better.  Our sweet babysitter, Amy, got to enjoy the sing-along version of Frozen.  :)  Unfortunately, "do you want to build a snowman?" seemed all too appropriate this week.  Here's to hoping that April is a bit warmer...
