In November, specifically Remembrance Day, Sean, Aunty Claudette and I took Owen and Brandon to Telus World of Science to see the Lego Transportation exhibit. They found the whole place really interesting and hands-on. There was the first room which was concerned with all things to do with the weather. Here the boys got to view […]

Happy Birthday
It’s a little late, but Happy Birthday Aunty Claudette. Aunty’s choice for her birthday was chicken fajitas and rice. Uncle Phil did an outstanding job cooking the chicken — this means Uncle Phil MUST always have dinner with us when it’s chicken fajitas. After dinner, came the surprise birthday cake — Aunty was touched by […]
Baking and Decorating a birthday cake
This year Owen and Brandon have both really caught on to the excitement of birthday’s. So for Aunty Claudette’s birthday (October 29th), I thought it might be fun for the boys to help bake and decorate a birthday cake for her, plus I knew she would think that was pretty special. Over a couple evenings […]
Craft Time
Owen and Brandon moved to daycare in the summer months, they have learned a lot and enjoy daycare so very much. So much that sometimes on the weekends, Brandon tells us he wants to go to daycare today! One thing they do a day care that our day home didn’t do much of and we […]
The past week
We have had unusually warm fall weather this year and we have tried to take advantage of it. Most nights we try to get the boys outside to play before it gets really cold.

Happy Thanksgiving
Or as Owen and Brandon would put it…Happy Turkey Day! There was no gymnastics on Saturday, but we were pleasantly surprised to have Aunty Claudette come by to make us her very famous, very yummy waffles. Owen and Brandon were very helpful — adding the ingredients, mixing and then watching the waffles cook. They loved […]
Brandon’s 2nd birthday with family
Brandon is now two years old…love that mischievous smile! The poor guy had really really bad diaper rash the day of his birthday…but you’d never know it from the pictures! We decided for his actual birthday we would have it at Aunty Claudette’s house. Owen and Brandon always want to play at Aunty’s house, so […]
Cornfest
Callingwood Marketplace is a nice little area near our home with shops of all sorts, a farmers market in the summer and lots of activities year round. In the fall each year the put on CornFest where they have corn on the cob, music and much more. This year the firefighters were there with their […]
Making Pizza
One Friday on the way home from work and day care, with no motivation to cook, Sean and I struggled with what to make for dinner. Then Sean had an idea, what if we made pizza at home. Owen and Brandon would love to help put the toppings on and it would be something a […]
