Beaver Buggies
Every year at Beavers the Cubs set up race tracks for the Beavers to race buggies they make.Caleb's buggie was called Candyland since, as a ploy to get him to get rid of his leftover Halloween candy, I suggested we hot glue gun candy to it. Candyland won some races and lost some.

Terra 20 Adventure
The problem with having gifted Liana a Terra 20 gift card for Christmas was that she wanted me to drive her to Terra 20 (near the Ikea) and I hate winter driving. After having rescheduled a few times, I committed to taking her Saturday before last. As has been a frequent occurrence this winter we woke up to a snowstorm and bad road conditions. I didn't want to bail on her so I proposed we bus (while secretly hoping it would dissuade her from wanting to go. Anyway, a few buses and cold/windy walks later we made it, she shopped, and had coffee at Starbucks afterwards. It was her first caffeinated Starbucks beverage, because she's getting older.
Princess Toadstool
Can you say modern parenting meme waiting to happen? We bought Evelyn a safety helmet. She falls a lot, gets hurt, and we worry. The helmet was $20, it's super light, and there's some patting on the front that also prevents her from face-planting and hurting her face. It's saved her from head falls pretty much every day she's worn it so far.
Miscellaneous
Caleb and I went to see the LEGO movie and it was quite good! May just pick up the DVD when it becomes available.
Liana turned 14 (!) and weekend celebrations took place. There will be a separate blog entry to cover her parties once we receive the photos taken.
