* Some of us were not allowed to vote in yesterday's election. So we decided to vote on dinner instead. (And all ages were eligible!)
* Treasure chests are STILL A THING in my classroom. You might be thinking that Grade 8's are a little too "grown-up" for that kind of stuff. Ha! If only you heard the squeals induced by frog erasers and Spiderman stickers!
* Black beans are difficult to find here, but we managed to spot some at the grocery store yesterday evening. Nory decided to eat them straight-up, claiming that they were so yummy because they taste just like CHEESE. #whateverfloatsyourboat
* Phil's volleyball team won their final regular season game this week. Playoffs begin on Saturday and then he's off to Jordan for the international tournament on Halloween weekend. And THEN, it's basketball season. GO TEAM!
* We went to bed at 7:30 last night and have been up drinking coffee and watching the Jays game since extra-early this morning. GO JAYS GO!
* We are balancing chemical equations in science class and one of my kids described the entire ordeal just perfectly, calling it "stressful, but really nice!" HAHAHA. The fun continues today!!!
* Gem's decided to remove her earrings permanently because her ears continue to reject them. In good news, guess who popped by with her jewelry box, giving me first dibs on the entire collection? Eeeeee!!!!!! THANK YOU GEM!!! xo
* We are looking forward to Grandma's arrival at the end of November. She is coming for Juliet's first birthday and we can't wait to have her here for part of the holiday season! The weather will be great in Kuwait and we'll be able to do stuff OUTSIDE :)
