End-of-volleyball-season talk from Coach Sara.

Great group of girls!

Picking numbers for white elephant gift exchange.


X finally won at left/right/center -- a princely sum of $29!


Accidental twins.

Fire alarm went off just as I was picking Clare up from Math Club.

Lots of fire trucks and excitement, but ultimately nothing serious and it was all a big adventure.

Pre-volleyball-game party at Taya and Tony's.


Watching the WWU volleyball team continue to crush it this season.

It's always so fun trying to snap photos for holiday cards. :)



How Clare watches Xander's middle school basketball games: hiding behind the chairs and coding on her laptop.


WMS is having a fantastic season -- they've defeated all three of the other middle schools.

Thanksgiving 2018 -- I'm grateful they'll still happily pose for photos with their ol' Mom. Sometimes.



The Winters joined us and it was a fantastic day.


Waiting outside Taya and Tony's, before we all walked down to Winterfest in Fairhaven.


Always have to stop at the elementary school.

Catching up to the rest of us.

A crowd of some of my favorite people.





After a fun afternoon at Winterfest, Anya came over for an evening of video games

Michael opening his new iPhone/early birthday present.

Another game, another win.



Waiting for Neko!

We let the kids stay out late on a school night for the show.

Clare and her Math Club twin, Jasper.

Celebrating Michael's birthday at the Fork.


And then heading to Boundary Bay to watch the WWU volleyball team compete in their first ever national championship game!

Go Vikings!

Birthday beers.  Cheers!



It was a nail-biter of a game. Unfortunately, they lost by a few points in the final set, but it was a fantastic season!

My Christmas helper elf.

Me and my cheerleaders, the night of the Chamber Awards Dinner.

Ready to go -- photo by Xander.


My team, my partner, and more cheerleaders.

:)

Waiting for warm-ups.

Baking cookies.




Xander's coach this year is really great -- he's been doing this for 43 years!

It's fun to see glimpses of what could be Xander's high school basketball team might someday look like.
