We started the week with the fantastic news of Grace's acceptance at Berkelee College of Music for an online degree in composition! She will start classes in January. We just so happened to be going out that evening for a fogging supper... so we turned it into a celebration supper and went a bit farther afield to what Dad claims are the best burgers in the world. They were really good - and definitely celebration dinner worthy!
Mom's bike broke on the way 😖 Not just a flat tire or something easy - the back axle snapped from too much wear and tear! Proof we have well used these bikes of ours in the last 5 years, especially when combined with the growing number of smaller fixes in the last few weeks.
Aiden started soccer this quarter, but between rainy days and suddenly declared public holidays (to do with the elections this weekend), he's only gotten to have one practice 😒
Mom got Advent decorations and plans made a week early this year - maybe a first ever. Feels good, but also highlights just how fast Christmas is coming up...
We ended the week with Jasmin's news of being finished with braces! We spent pretty much the whole day out as she had two appointments - to take off the braces and get a mold for retainers, and then to get them fitted. So she got 3 hours of total freedom in-between braces and retainers 😁 A lunch out and a short shopping spree with mom for clothes to take to Canada (in about 12 weeks!?!) filled the rest of the in-between time. We're renewing clothing here as we can because there's no way you could buy 11 items for less than $60 in Canada!
