Today was family and while Melissa had to work the kids and I headed to Nana and Papa’s house for an afternoon of swimming and lunch.

After dropping Melissa and Violet off at the Science Centre for a play day with a bunch of her friends, I decided to run a little experiment. I headed to a Starbucks with just my Cell Phone and Tablet to see how much code I could write. Though I came up a bit short of my goals, I did find it a successful day.

Today we have a picture of our dinner table after Melissa and I (Well mostly Melissa) finished setting it up for our Valentines dinner. I love sharing these family moments with Melissa and the kids.

Today was Parent Teacher interviews at the kid’s school and while I do find talking tot he teachers enlightening, I have another reason for attending. I like to capture pictures of the kids work off the class room walls. This year that seems to be only Violet’s work in her kindergarten class. Still I managed to put together a collage from her different winter themed works of art. .

Today after the kids skating lessons we headed to Montana’s for a special dinner. We don’t go out just the three of us that often, so it was nice.

Today we headed to the doctors office to get Jacob tested for allergies. This is Jacobs second time being tested, and thankfully he doesn’t have any allergies. (Jacobs first Test) Of course this makes me think that we really need to get Violet a second test, just to confirm that she has out grown her Peanut allergy.

Today was practice day, both kids were on the ice early in the morning. Thankfully not that early, the first practice started at 8. Of course the best part of the early morning practices is that you are done by ten and are free to do what every you want to do for the rest of the day.

Today we have a picture, well pictures, I took at Jacobs hockey game. Google’s AutoAwesome just put a few of my action shots together to form a pano of the game. My question for you is how many Jacobs are there in today’s picture of the day?

Today is Thursday so that means Hockey Skills at Mimico arena.  Today I have a picture of Violet charging down the ice.  I really love watching out there skating up a storm.

Today Melissa and Violet headed to their favourite store,  the American Girl shop in Indigo at Yorkdale.  There Violet used her birthday gift cards to get herself a new doll.  Meet Molly Rose,  the first American Girl doll that didn’t come with a name.
