Today has been busy day. We have friend’s down staying with us for the night from New Brunswick with their family so we spent the afternoon and night with them.

About a month ago I finally started doing something about my gaining a bunch of weight back and poor eating habits. Things started off well but a cold slowed me down for a while. Still I had pretty good progress I lost close to 10 lbs during the past month. I’m very happy about this,Continue reading “Back to Basics”
Shadowy Figures
Yesterday after supper we took the kids to go swimming. Noah was done before anyone else so he and I went for a walk. He turned a corner and he looked down. Look Dad my shadow is almost as tall as yours.
