Week 6 of 2013

I didn't pick up my camera much this week... all but one of the pictures below came from the weekend activities and the one exception came from my camera phone!



This weekend we celebrated the Chinese New Year by attending a festival in Richmond. We attended the same one last year and once again, it was a good time. The girls enjoyed the food, the performance, dressing up, the parade, looking at the Chinese trinkets, and doing some Chinese themed crafts. The boys? Well they enjoyed playing iPod/phone games in the back of the auditorium.

The boys had their second week of basketball. They are now 4-0.





And Monday, Brynn's GS troop had the annual food festival where they sample food from the country they are studying for an upcoming event. Last year they studied China and this year it was Iceland, a bit more challenging. Brynn made blueberry soup (top right corner). It probably would have been great over ice-cream or pancakes but as a soup, it was really sweet!
