Next Up......1st Camping Trip of the season

We haven't been out since but have sites booked for a weekend in August and one in September. It is nearly impossible to get a site in any provincial campground without booking in June. My friend Brianne is really on the ball and had our summer excursions all planned out!

Where to begin....

Holy smokes do I need to update this thing.

It has been a busy summer.

I am going to try and pick up where I left off!

What threw me completely off track was our trip to Vegas (end of May). Not only the blog....let's just say I needed time to recover.

Scenes from Vegas:

May Long Weekend in Banff

The boys eating Mexican Food! Luca apparently loves a taco salad and Carter devoured a taco! Yummmy!
All tuckered out.
Supper after a big day of playing.
Love birds!
Luca loved the pony ride with his horse "Perogy"

Goofy kids!
On a hike.....

Happy Mother's Day

A bedtime story from Gramma
Making their own pizza

I hope everyone had a wonderful day. I had a great day! Joel prepared a feast this morning that I was lucky enough to enjoy with my own Mom. My boys presented me with some handmade treasures. I took a nap before enjoying a solitary wonder through the greenhouse dreaming of future landscaping, went to the library, watched a movie by myself (P.S. I Love You.....it was a bit of a tear jerker and maybe a bit sappy but I liked it).


Luca decided he wanted to be dressed up for most of the weekend. The Batman costume is way to big and the Jack Jack costume is too small but he didn't seem to mind.



We are off to Banff for the long weekend and we are all VERY excited! We are staying at the Douglas Fir Resort (http://www.douglasfir.com/) which is very family friendly so if the weather doesn't cooperate we will have plenty to do. I told Luca we could go for a pony ride and he went to bed tonight asking if tomorrow was "horsey day".

8 lbs Down and Vegas Bound!

Well, I am happy to report I am down 8lbs! I can't believe how well I am doing and how great I am feeling. I am actually enjoying the gym......I have been going strong for the last 3 weeks so I am hoping I can keep it up.

We have booked a getaway to Vegas at the end of this month for a much needed break from reality. We have been trying to getaway with Tanis and Quentin forever and the planets have finally aligned to make it happen!

A Visit with Sonia

Happy %^@#*& Earth Day!!
