22 November 2015

Sofi's school celebrated National Take a Hike Day by encouraging the students to dress like they were going hiking on Tuesday.  Sofi carried her schoolbooks in Abe's frame pack.  She took Abe's since it is the smallest of our backpacking backpacks.  Maybe they should have celebrated the day by actually going on a hike.

 Abe has 2 or 3 basketball games a week.  They've won some and lost some.  Here's a photo of Abe warming up before Wednesday's game.

 On Friday, Helen and Gibson's school celebrated No Shave November by wearing mustaches.  

 Gib was awarded student of the month for his class at the school assembly.  In every other class, the teacher selects the student of the month.  In Gib and Helen's class, the students choose the student of the month.

 This is a photo of all the students of the month and their teachers.  Some classes had 2 students so there are more students than teachers in the photo.  Our new grade school is about half the size of our old one.

 Brandan and Gibson emptied a load of rich compost from our compost bin.  It's great to get such rich fertilizer for free.  They spread the compost on our vegetable garden.  We need the empty space in the bin for all the leaves that fell in our yard this week.
