Kiandra and Kezia returned home from their weekend away and I was so excited to hear about the stories from the weekend that accompanied the glimpses I managed to find on instagram with the youth edge hashtag.

My date for the beginning of the band concert. Conrad joined us for the first part of the concert and then he and Kaden left for hockey and when Kezia finished driver's ed, she joined me for the remainder of the concert.

Kaden was very excited to be at the band concert.

I got home late from school because Kaden was refereeing volleyball and the girls were making supper...homemade chicken soup and cheesy garlic bread.

Last visit to the Farmer's Market for this season. The 6 degree temperature made eating our lunch a little difficult because we were so cold!

This was a wonderful surprise from Conrad when he picked up Kaden from school and I still had a 2 and a half hour staff meeting to attend.

Wednesday surprises: Flip flop weather in the middle of October?! Twenty-two degrees in the van after school?! A thoughtful text from Kiandra asking if she could make me a naan bread ranch chicken bacon pizza for supper to eat before dropping them off at kids club?! SO many good things

Today we had our first parent meeting and jersey fitting. It's ironic that the community club we are playing for had a huge fire in Spring and yet out of all of the things that were damaged the old, ripped, stained jerseys were in a part of the club that escaped damage.

Hard to believe that it's been a year since Kiandra got her license and we've been able to head out on Friday night date nights and could leave the van with her to drive everyone home from youth.

That time I asked Kezia to put on the sweatshirt she made in sewing class so I could get a picture of it:

I've been so thankful that Kiandra has chosen to spend her Tuesday afternoons at school with my Grade 1 class. Today she helped cut out our "check for understanding" check marks which will be used as a comprehension tool for my awesome readers.

Kezia went to a Lazer Tag birthday party this evening and the mom sent me this photo. Who knew Kezia could look so fierce?!

A Pre-Concert dinner and I forgot to snap a dinner picture with Janice and Sherisse and had to settle with a parking lot shot of me and Janice instead.
