A REALLY WHITE MORNING

First snow came yesterday 

in the afternoon

and went on in the night an today.

This morning we put on heavy boots

and went downhill to pick up our cars.

It's so nice to live "uphill"

but a bit incovenient when it's snowing.

Wonderful white Winter landscape!

Ready for a white Xmas?

WINTER KICK OFF

First weekend far from home ALONE

from Friday to Sunday 

in the shadow of the Matterhorn!

So excited at the idea to be away 

and overnight 2 nights with his friends.

 

Second appointment of the winter season

on the skis after the official  kick off

 1st of November.

Ski Club is calling

and soon (hopefully)

runs will be ready also here!

So silent house in these days

It's unbelievable how a kid

fills your life!

BE BRIGHT!

 It takes a big effort 

to keep up with all the daily activities,

school and sports schedule. 

E. is doing very well

even if sometimes it's hard

to study after dinner

when you get home 20,30

from training  sessions.

B-DAY

On Sunday afternoon

we celebrated E's birthday:

11 kids running in the garden 

from 14,00 to 19,30 in the afternoon

playing hide and seek, volley ball, rugby, 

basket ball and football .

Fortunately

we had the B-party 

with cake, pizza and sandwiches

in the garage

(I wonder what it woul have happened

to have all these kids upstairs!)

A nice party. E. was really happy.

This year theme was

minions and despicable2

(we went to 3d cinema last weekend 

and both adults and kids liked this movie very much).

Time goes really fast

one more candle on my kid's cake!

2012, 2011 (also here) and 2010 (also here)

looks just round the corner

but 4 years are gone!

Y E S, IT'S FRIDAY !

Very busy week this week

(for all of us)

swimming, football, dentist

driving up and down the valley

everyday, but today!

Alarm clock for everybody at 6,30 this morning:

there was some Celsius

and how thermometer works

 still to study for today.........

But at least it's Friday 

and we have a weekend ahead

I CAN, I WILL

Last Saturday mood 

before the football match

was really NEGATIVE

since the coach said that
the opposing team was very strong
(and indeed it really was).

This time the coach just said
"We will win"
(even if probably they will not)
but this time the mood
is different:

YES
We can win. We will win.
