Final Four

The Golden Bears boys basketball team advanced to the state tournament and we were so excited for them, particularly the Porter family whom we know and love.  On Saturday, the girls had a sleep over at Grammie and Pa's while we headed to Binghamton to see the championship game.  Sadly, the Bears did not win but they worked hard and made history for CHS.  We appreciated this opportunity to have an overnight away too! #goldenbearpride

In other news this week, Mom and Sabrina participated in the Here and Now Women's retreat over the weekend.  Since Adam had a soccer tournament, the Britton girls came over to play Saturday morning.  They were over the moon to be together, as usual.  They made rolled sugar cookies and played and had lots of fun!

Thursday the girls had a sleepover at Grammie and Pa's (twice in one week was a real treat!) because they didn't have school Friday due to Superintendent's day, but daddy did.  They had a great day playing with Grandpa and Cousin Logan.  Claire did some reading to Papa and it's such a joy for all of us to see her doing so well learning this skill.

Winter Storm Stella of 2017 hit the North East!  We were just covered in snow this week.  The girls had two days off from school, the entire state was under a state of emergency, our county had a travel advisory issued, and for the first time ever in my career at SUNY our Governor dismissed us from our duties early, at 3pm on Tuesday afternoon - although all of downstate was told not to report to work at all!  Here are some pics of our driveway.  The girls are getting inpatient for spring to arrive but had a great time playing in all of the freshly fallen snow.
