This weekend Jen ended up having a long weekend thanks to August 3rd being a civic holiday. She doesn’t get a lot of days off aside from a week or so in the summer and Christmas so we took advantage and decided to take a weekend getaway to Moncton New Brunswick.

Rest Day
This morning I was able to wake up early the way I like and I got out of bed to go for a run, but my legs and body were telling me otherwise. I was sore and cramped and I guess that makes sense, I pushed it hard for me this week. I’m pleased withContinue reading “Rest Day”

Picking Raspberries
Last night we went out to pick some raspberries as a family. If you didn’t know I have a thing for raspberries.

This was even better as two of my Aunts were down visiting my Mom and theyContinue reading “Picking Raspberries”

Throwback Pictures
Recently I installed Timehop on my phone and it’s been showing me some awesome old photos. It got me thinking and I ended up going through some old pictures tonight. I found some really cute old ones of the kids and thought I’d share some.
Shaun the Sheep Movie
This morning we went into the city to see an advanced screening of Shaun the Sheep Movie. It is done by the same people that made Chicken Run and Wallace & Gromit. I’d heard of these movies but never seen them so I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect. I had also never heard ofContinue reading “Shaun the Sheep Movie”
