Quick grab the camera….Owen and Brandon are smiling and ready for a picture. Owen quite proudly displaying his lego creation (it turns into a shooting gun – but as Owen will tell you, you only shoot at targets). Brandon showing off his army guy who is ready to go off into the woods and hunt […]

Elephants, Light Sticks and Tigers
The circus came to town in March. Owen is almost 4 yrs old and Brandon is 2 1/2 yrs old; we felt they were old enough to enjoy it, last the afternoon and remember the events. About a week before the circus date we started to ask Owen and Brandon if they would like to […]
Skating for the first time
As promised the very next weekend we took Owen and Brandon skating for the first time. As it worked out, it was Family Day weekend so we got an extra day of skating in. Saturday after gymnastics we headed to Servus Centre in St Albert to use their indoor skating pond. It was a great […]
Puzzles and Pretend Play
Owen and Brandon are growing up too fast for me; while the things they are learning and how independent they are becoming is exciting, that baby / toddler stage is slowly slipping away and it’s a little sad. Well, I’ll always have my pictures to look back on! Owen really is enjoying puzzles right now; he […]
Valentines Day
As for Valentines Day, we had a special evening planned for Owen and Brandon. Aunty Claudette came over with her waffle maker and made heart shaped waffles for dinner, followed up with valentines sugar cookies. Sugar rush! Owen and Brandon thoroughly enjoyed the waffles…homemade is always the best. After waffles and cookies, Owen enjoyed putting […]

Galaxyland
Well it snowed again but since the roads were somewhat cleared the week following the latest dump of snow, we managed to brave the weather and head outside. After gymnastics we headed to West Edmonton Mall Galaxyland for the boys’ special treat day. Potty training has been going exceptionally well for both Owen and Brandon […]
Merry Christmas…2010
Merry Christmas! We were especially lucky this year to have Uncle Derek, Aunty Colette, Zoe and Isaac here in Edmonton with us and Aunty Jodi staying at our home over the Christmas holidays. We were surrounded with family all through the holidays and while at times it was a little chaotic, a little busy, it […]
Gingerbread…train
Aunty Claudette asked, would Owen and Brandon prefer a gingerbread house or train? Hummm…that would be a tough question. Yeah right, a train of course! Aunty Claudette came over one night with a special craft to do with the boys. They were very excited to see a train and were as patient as they could […]

At about the end of November we started with the Christmas Tree decorating….there is Grandma K’s house, Aunty Claudette and Uncle Phil’s house, Grandma and Grandpa H’s house and then finally our house. All these houses need Christmas trees and decorating and who better to help out then Owen and Brandon! This was the first tree, […]
