Last weekend was a good family weekend. It started out by meeting up with some family friends in Lunenburg to go to the Fisherman’s Museum. Before they suggested we meet there, neither Jen or I knew it existed even though we had been right beside it a year or two before walking along the LunenburgContinue reading “Last Weekend”

Obviously the summer months have made me slack in updating this site, and if it wasn’t for Jen reminding me last night I probably wouldn’t be writing this right now. She has been keeping up her part by updating our photo album, so I guess I’m just slack. As you can see if you have checkedContinue reading “Two Months Later”

Home again home again. After a long day of traveling we are finally at home. There were a few stressful moments on the trip back to the airport, but we made it. Our goal was to leave the hotel by 10:00 am as we had about an hour an a half drive not including anyContinue reading “Vacation: Day 7 – Last Day”

The last full day of vacation, I have very mixed feelings about it. On one hand it will be very nice to sleep in my own bed, get the girls back on a schedule, and have a home cooked meal. But then you have to look at all the things that come a long withContinue reading “Vacation: Day 6”

Wow finally getting to write a blog entry before 10:00 pm, this is a first for this vacation. Today was another very fun day. We didn’t do much in the way of activities today, but the girls were on some of their best behaviour for the most part, so the things we did do wereContinue reading “Vacation: Day 5”

In my opinion day 4 was the best day yet of this vacation. Ella is feeling much better and therefore more cheerful which makes a world of difference. So we got up this morning and headed to the African Lion Safari, just outside Cambridge. I think this was everyone’s favorite attraction that we have seen.Continue reading “Vacation: Day 4”

When we look back over this vacation I think we will see day 3 as the turning point. Not that days 1 and 2 were awful but they did have their moments. Now today wasn’t completely incident free but what would a vacation be without a few little hiccups to keep things interesting. First thingContinue reading “Vacation: Day 3”

Being in a hotel room is pretty boring, especially when there are three kids sleeping and you have to try not to wake them up. It does however give me a good chance to write in this blog each night. Last night didn’t quite go as hoped. Alex and Ella were about the only onesContinue reading “Vacation: Day 2”

Well I’m just about to turn in for the night but I thought I’d better write some of today’s events while they are still fresh in my head. The first day of a vacation always seems like the hardest and this time seems to be no exception. Ella was not cooperating this morning when weContinue reading “Vacation: Day 1”

Well the time is finally here. We are flying to Ontario tomorrow afternoon. We are busy packing stuff up tonight and getting all the last minute things ready to go away. Keep hoping that we will not forget anything, but I’m sure once we get there we will find something missing. There are lots ofContinue reading “Vacation Starts Tomorrow”
