moms day at grammas

some pix of gramma and the moms on moms day

a kids game

Take me out to the ball game...

A perfect day at the ball park Sunday. Halfway through the game at 4-1, Simon decided the final score should be 5-2 (for his and Chloe's ages) for the Jays over Texas, and it was!

We were going to head out after 7 innings but stuck it out longer and after the 8th we all got up on the JUMBO TRON!

That was way cool!

Should'a bought a 50-50 ticket...

RIPSODY

Sadly, today marks the loss of Rapsody.

She was an quirky cat who took many years to settle in with anyone who didn't actually feed her. Corinne got her about 10 years ago and she logged many air miles in the interim.

She/we spent the last 7 months coping with some form of carcinoma on her leg. She had still been pretty much herself, happy and mobile, until now, it quickly become too much for her.

For all her moodiness around most people, in the last year or so, (Rappy, or Happy as the kids first called her) she came to be very comfortable and affectionate with the kids and they with her.

She will be missed.

Natalie's birthday party

We celebrated Natalie's birthday at the local recreation centre. The kids had a swim and then ice cream cake and presents in the party room. We did the group activity of kids lifting each other with only two fingers each. (For the record, we didn't drop any of the kids!)

Much silliness was had by all!

Sk8

Simon's skating has really come along in the few times we were out this year and Chloe seems a natural on her second time out!
