Trying to Stay Warm

Note that this was written on Jan. 15th - just not posted until tonight. I was trying to upload some video footage, but have not had any luck. I will keep trying. Well, I suppose as most, we are working at trying to stay warm in this crazy cold! No school for the kids today meant I had to stay home too. Darn! Now to recap a few things that have happened over the last week.

Last Friday, Kaylynn was in a short skit at school, dressed as a pig - what else? They were suppose to have done it just before Christmas as it was a skit about the birth of Jesus from the perspective of the animals in the stable. With a little rewrite, they did it the Friday we returned to school. She did great. Quite the natural actress.

What a cute pig!

Aren't they cute?

Back to basketball on Saturday. Garrett's team lost but he played well. Keeps getting better at that dribbling. Kaylynn's intramural team lost 16 to 11 but once again, she had 4 points! Garrett had a game again on Monday evening and a win came their way. He played well again. He even had 4 points! The Scher kids must be stuck on 4!

Is this a Mr. Basketball in the making?

The kids did get to play in the snow for a while on Wednesday, as it was not as frigid. I am not sure who wanted this more - them or their dad. Too bad he was at work! Well, back to watching the Boilers on TV. Everyone stay warm!
