I picked Ben up at school today and he said, "I have to show you my Book of Clay that I made during Free Choice."
Here is the cover...
And the content...
It's obvious that Ben loves school, he loves learning and he loves Clay! So... Grandma, Grandpa, Bachan, Jichan, auntie and uncles... remember this love and this smiling face when he hits you up for Jog-a-thon pledges next month!

Round Two
With a few days left of winter break and a parking pass that was still valid, we decided to head back up the mountain for another day in the snow!
Kara and Ben gathered large pieces of snow/ice to build an igloo...
Though it's hard to tell from this picture, they created an open concept igloo with an en suite. We watch a lot of HGTV at our house!
Kara loved showering herself in snow...
While Jason just wanted to eat it!!
Snack time is always a favorite time for these kids, no matter the location.
We ended the trip with some sledding down the mountain, which all the kids enjoyed.
Mostly, it was nice to just have a family day before we the kids head back to school.

Snow Day!
We were invited to join the Kozuki and Ikemiya cousins for a snow day. Since there was so little snow last season, our kids were eager to take a day trip.
Claire was kind enough to make Jason some perfect snowballs, which he quickly smashed or threw to the ground.
James initiated the idea of building forts and walls to prepare for the eventual snow ball fight. He's also the cousin that is good to the little ones, making sure everyone is included and having fun.
Sho had a lot of work to do and couldn't take the day off, but fortunately Fun Uncle Todd was in town and was able join us for our snow day.
After a few hours in the snow, everyone enjoyed the yummy snacks and food. And once you're sitting near the heaters with a plate of food... it's hard to leave your chair!
Kara and Elyse found their own snack spot up on a rock and enjoyed the views from up top.
After lunch, Jason remembered reading about snow angels in the book "Peter's Snowy Day" and tried a few times to make snow angels of his own.
It was a great day full of fun and family... our kids are already asking when we can go again!
