Malcolm and Marlys came to visit for the Nov 11 long weekend. We had a good time. One of the highlights was going to see the Nonsuch at the museum. Its a full size boat, indoors. We picked up a digital camera and took a few pictures.
Hi Everyone - We LOVE summer. Since I've last been here we have been having fun in cottage land. First was father's day and that was great - we spoiled dad - he got a bocce set, crocket set, 2 XBOX games, the XBOX play and charge kit, and a book called McMafia,and a nice lounging lawn chair - oh yes and the "dad" willow tree angel b/c he needed to be represented in my collection - dad was really spoiled and had a great day and John had a great 20 oz steak!!! We also spent some time at my sister and brother in law's cottage at Lake Metigoshe that was alot of fun, the weather was great and the kids had soo much fun. Then the last weekend in June we spent our first weekend of the year at our cottage, for those of you who don't know where it is, it is in Lake of the Woods, which is in Ontario. We spent this last weekend of June/July 1st with our friends Jonathan and Karen and their kids Josiah and Jessie, we had sooo much fun, the weather was great, we had a...
Here are more pictures of what has been happening in our life since I last blogged. Aunt Cathy came to visit and we were very excited to see her!! She spent one evening with us and we had a great time eating a good meal, playing outside on the trampoline, and going for a walk to get a coffee and some ice cream, we really miss her and Jackson is anxiously awaiting the day he can go on an airplane to see Aunt Cathy :) I went to the spa last week for an appointment that lasted 2 3/4 hours - it was FANTASTIC - I think I should go every month - it was a well deserved break. LOVED IT ! We spent one weekend at our friends Jonathan and Karen's cottage and that was GREAT, it was sooo peaceful and relaxing to be in the outdoors in the beautiful autumn weather! The kids had fun exploring and going for walks outdoors and we had a great time watching movies and eating delicious food. I also took care of my niece and nephew for one week while my sister was at a conference in Reno, so it was ...
Here we are all ready to celebrate Canada Day. We had friends over for burgers at lunch time, then went to other friends for a dinner bbq and then out for fireworks. It was a fabulous day! The boys decided at our friends house that they needed to dress up, so of course I took pictures. These are great for their wedding day!! Here is Oliver and Jackson, and Hannah. Before they dressed up they did their own Canada Day facepaint, it got pretty crazy! Hudson was so happy about this, I can't say the same for John ;) This past week the boys had their friend over. Jackson wanted to let him use his Backstreet Boys notebook. Really it was his Beatles notebook. I thought I better start Boyband 101. Here is Jackson with a John Lennon doll ;) And of course FIREWORKS. We were so close this year that debris was falling on us. IT WAS AWESOME. I can't even explain how great ...
