Oreo Cows
Love the Oreo cows at the zoo.
Taking a break
Spent some of the afternoon running around getting errands taken care that need done before we head out on vacation. The last thing was to drop off Ella at dance class. Almost right across the street is a provincial park. It makes a great place to sit in the sun with a good book andContinue reading “Taking a break”
Treat with the oldest and youngest
Jen is helping out all day at the drama practice with Caile and Ella. Alex spent the morning studying for her exams. So this afternoon we decided to walk down our hill together for the first time. We stopped and talked with friends along the way but made it down to the cafe to haveContinue reading “Treat with the oldest and youngest”

Wonderful start to a Saturday
This Saturday morning has started out wonderfully. First I slept in until 6:30, then headed down stairs with just my little man. While he played and watched a little Pokemon, I curled up in a chair with a nice cup of tea and started a new book. The rain falling outside was perfect background noise.

Unseen Perk
Tonight I found another unseen perk of distributed work. Jen is no longer afraid to cut my hair, because really who will see me anyway. YAY free haircut!
Gardening
For a guy who doesn’t overly enjoy gardening, and isn’t very good at it, I seem to have dedicated a fair amount of time to it this weekend. It will be worth it though in the end. The waste resource management group here was giving away free compost yesterday. We took advantage and I wentContinue reading “Gardening”
Mother’s Day
Mother’s Day always reminds me of what I know everyday, I have three of the most amazing mothers in my life. My Mother in Law Linda. One of the most giving and selfless people I know. Always willing to do what ever she can to help out. Having her so close and everything she doesContinue reading “Mother’s Day”
