This past weekend was Labour Day weekend. In past years it was always our last little get away for the summer. This year though the kids started school a couple days before and we had a few getaways this summer already so we didn’t take off. We did have lots of fun though. It wasContinue reading “Labour Day Long Weekend”

Day at the Beach
We had a long but fun day today. Seemed like a lot of driving, because it was, but we broke it up with stops along the way. To start we got up bright and early and headed down one shore of Nova Scotia to visit Jen’s Grandparents. We unfortunately don’t get down very often, butContinue reading “Day at the Beach”
Evening Family Walk
This evening we went for a wonderful family walk. My sister is still home visiting with her husband so a bunch of us got together to take Finney for a walk around Miners Marsh. With us came my mom and my brother in laws parents as well. It was a perfect evening to be out.Continue reading “Evening Family Walk”
Back to School Pictures
The kids headed back to school this morning. I gathered up a few of the first day of school pictures over the past few years. These are the ones I could easily find figured it would be good for TBT
Watery Fun Kind of Day
The plan for today was to spend a fair amount of time on or around the water. The river which we tube down had the water levels brought back up so it was open again probably for one of the last times this year. We decided we would take advantage of it and get thereContinue reading “Watery Fun Kind of Day”

I actually ended up with lots of sleep because I went to be early. 5:30 am didn’t seem so bad at all. Just as I was getting ready toContinue reading “Dance Class Parent Participation”
First Sleep Over
Over the weekend Noah went to his first ever sleep over at a friends house. It’s irrational but I always get a little worried when the kids go for a sleep over, especially the first time. I was pretty sure Noah would be fine, but there’s always that chance that they are going to getContinue reading “First Sleep Over”
My Sister’s Home
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. We took all the kids swimming in the afternoon. It started raining on us for a while but only a bit. They were in theContinue reading “My Sister’s Home”
Afternoon in Chester Nova Scotia
Yesterday afternoon we took a drive into Chester Nova Scotia. It’s a beautiful village right on the coast. There is a neat little beach that we like there called Freda’s Beach. It’s not very big, but the view is lovely and the kids like playing in the water and finding creatures like star fish andContinue reading “Afternoon in Chester Nova Scotia”
