Volleyball, blocks, paint, and Starbucks

Lilly got home from a volleyball game one night and posed with Anthony.

*Lilly's doing great this season!*

 For preschool, Anthony gets extra points if he reads for 20 minutes each day.  

Shame on me for not reading to him much before!

I've always worked or volunteered in libraries!

So, we started reading each day, going through 3-5 books each time.

The stack of books each week is about 1 1/2 feet tall.

Anthony LOVES it!

One evening he cuddled right up to me and started reading his book without me.

 Maggie had fun with Anthony's blocks.

 Daniel is a certified Starbucks barista.

He's liking it, I think.

 We went ice skating, and Anthony had fun watching.

Between watching his movie though.

I couldn't believe how well I was skating (not falling down and not having to be holding on to the edge), and on the last half of my last lap of the night, I did a knee-plant and splits enough to make my hip hurt seriously for a few days.

 We got our family pictures done on canvas and didn't think they'd look good with our old paint.

So, I got some chocolatey paint and re-did our fireplace wall.

And the inside of our front door.
