Busy Week

Well another busy week at Blue Bay Farms, a lot of potatoes went out the door this week. Even with some snow this week we managed to get out a lot of loads, not quite sure how many, 10 anyway.

Cassie had a good week at Marlene's, she's happiest the days Caitlyn and Cassidy MacNeill are there, another little girl to play Polly Pockets and Littlest Pet Shop with , and princess and whatever else it is little four and five year old girls play together.

Cassie got some bags of clothes today from Marie, down the road, she was a very happy little girl when she got home.

Aaron's had a busy week at school, well sort of, they had school Monday, a snow day Tuesday and Wednesday, and on Thursday at school Aaron said they went outside in the woods on snow shoes, he said that was SOOOOO much fun.

Most of our evenings end with supper, homework, showers and a few rounds of Go Fish or Crazy Eights, and maybe some Nintendo. Then a bedtime story and kisses goodnight.

Well that's about it for us. Tomorrow is grocery day, Oh, I almost forgot, I must tell you of a special milestone Aaron has reached.

He's been saving up his pennies and coins for a long time in the hopes of getting a Nintendo DS. I promised him, if he stopped biting his nails for 28 days straight, that I would pitch in the rest of the money. Well, yesterday , Aaron reached day 28!!!! So guess what, tomorrow we go in search of that new Nintendo DS. I'm really hoping he will keep it up! I told him if he gets another three months of no biting in, I will take him out and buy him a new game of his choice.

Anyway, I was really proud of Aaron and wanted to share that with you guys.

Have a great week everyone!!!

Love to all , Love Tineke, Aaron and Cassie.

Talk again soon.

Great job Aaron, keep it up.
I wonder if that will work for Caleb, he is biting his nails way too much. I have to think of something I can bribe him with.
Love,

good job Aaron! Now if only I can bribe myself with something! hahaha.
It sounds like you are keeping very busy over there in PEI. We're busy here too, and no snow days yet. It only snowed here once (an inch or two) since we got back from PEI. I have been missing the snow. it makes everything look clean and gives a legitmate reason for the cold :P.
Love you lots!
