This morning we got up and headed to visit Jen’s Aunt and Uncle at their cottage by a lake. It’s about a two hour trip each way so we wanted to get away at a good time. We took Jen’s Mom with us as well as it’s her Brother we were going to see. VisitsContinue reading “Day at the Lake”

Much Better Day Today
Yesterday was one of those days where just nothing seemed to go right. I would have likely been better off if I had just stayed in bed and there were parts of the day when I felt like that is what I should do. Just call it over and get out of the way. ItContinue reading “Much Better Day Today”
Finding Time for Yourself
The topic of freedom has been on my mind for a while now. During my later teenage years I had more freedom than I knew what to do with. Now there are days when it sometimes feels like my time really isn’t my own. Honestly I have nothing to complain about in my life, I’mContinue reading “Finding Time for Yourself”
Moncton Long Weekend
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. Moncton is only aboutContinue reading “Moncton Long Weekend”
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. It isn’t even that they are my favourite, but they are delicious and the memories are great. 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.
And we’re off
We were up late getting all the last minute things packed and ready, then up early again. Hopefully we didn’t forget anything because we’re on the road. So far so good all the kids are busy with the things they packed. We have a long drive today but after that they’re shorter drives. Keeping myContinue reading “And we’re off”
Proud Father
Today has been an extremely proud day for me. My children never cease to amaze me in all the things they can do and accomplish. Today it was my three daughters who all really out did themselves. Alexandria finished writing her exams today. When we arrived home after the last one this afternoon she checkedContinue reading “Proud Father”
Baby Canadian Geese
A couple nights ago we went out for a family walk around Miners Marsh. It’s a beautiful little trail close to home and doesn’t take very long to go around. There are usually lots of wildlife around. The kids were hoping to see a bunch of baby raccoons others had seen and taken pictures of,Continue reading “Baby Canadian Geese”
River Tubing
Saturday started out great, and it just continued right along that way. The rain cleared up and made way for gorgeous weather. We took advantage and with a group of other families headed out to float down a river. One of the fun things to do in the summer here is to tube down theContinue reading “River Tubing”
