B.'s Birthday!

Soccer is the name of the game at B.'s friend party.
So was WINDY!
Whew!!
A giant pizza blew over, the balloon arch was blown away, but most importantly B. and his friends had a great time.


 

 


G'mie and G'pa sent a revolving nerf gun! 
At last B. has been dreaming of his own weapon for so very long.
(note the genuine smile)


Roller blades!!


W.'s Birthday!

W. got together with his friends at the local bounce place for loads o' fun
 and finished off with ice cream cone cupcakes.



At his family party





Odds and Ends

The results of one of our big snow storms.

J.'s school Valentines Day party











Igloos vs Tents

J. has a great Scout Master who plans these amazing outings with the boys.
The "winter campout" consisted of making igloos, sledding...
J. and Marty decided to be some of the "brave" ones and sleep in the igloo with a few other people who got the chance (it took so long to make the two igloos that there wasn't room for everyone)



  All of the other "wimps" were going to sleep in the tent with a stove so they would be nice and toasty!


As it turned out the stoves didn't work very well (I guess there were some issues regarding the wood) so they froze and the igloos were nice and warm.

Ha ha ha!

I guess it pays to be "brave"!

It did get below 0 degrees that night!
Brrrrrr

We are ALIVE! Just not this poor blog :-(

I have often thought over the past months "I need to update the blog".  I didn't realize how long it has really been. 

Oh Dear!!!

So I will soon be posting snippits of the past 5 months.

I think I want to post quarterly.  That should be doable eh?
