Early February catch up

Somehow with my jet lag from Japan I missed a photo of Papa's visit with Boyd but I did snap this photo of Boyd's drawing from the Italian restaurant. Papa has taught Boyd some Italian. Boyd also has the opportunity to do a research project on a country of his choosing and he picked Italy.

After dropping Papa off at the airport we went and visited the Thompson's and new baby Hannah.

Boyd has the same picture with Hannah's brother Bennett when he was the same age. Boyd even chose to wear the same shirt.

Photos out of order but some neighborhood pals.

Annual iceskating. The ice and dull skates made for a rough outing this year. Next year we need to get our own skates.

Boyd and Bennett. Bennett loved Boyd so much and Boyd was so proud to make Bennett laugh and laugh playing games with him. Bennett cried when Boyd had to leave.

Selfie.

Awards ceremony at school. For critical thinking and creative problem solving.

Boyd and his teacher.

He should be in a jeans commercial.

Trampoline park to jump around with our neighbor Shawn. They built some cool structures to knock down and jump over into the pits.

Before the Superbowl, Boyd claimed the Sushi Go Championship title.

Tonight we completed this years Valentines. As customary we made them homemade. I love the rocks with Boyd's personal flair. 

One of the few times I can get him to "craft".

Must have gotten his creative juices flowing. "Look, I'm a pirate."

Snip snip snip, now I'm a shark.

No comment. I swear 8 year old boys and anything having to do with their bodies.

First night of working on his Valentine's Container. Tomorrow we need to get and stuff black socks and then attach the signs. He he too funny with the signs.
