Oilers, skates and sea lions
Last weekend our neighbours had tickets to the Edmonton Oiler’s hockey game (Hockey Day in Canada); so Sean and Owen went to the game. Owen was very excited, he got to drive to the game in a pick up truck and then eat popcorn and wave a big foam hand around. Brandon was pretty upset, almost devastated, […]

Each year we plan to get together to celebrate and each year we have to rebook due to bad road conditions, piles of snow, wintery winds…you get the idea. After […]
