Officially Outgrown

The stroller served our family well. It was time to say goodbye to the Uppababy bassinet and stroller...

Fresh Face of Four

The day after her birthday, we caught the feisty, funny, and frowny face of this fresh new four year old over some sweet dessert ... and with the phone's selfie function...

FOUR!

Keva turned the BIG 0-4 on a Saturday so we celebrated her in style!

Family Feast

MOMENTS: Love & Jumps

Keva brought some banana and pb 'sandwiches' (with the corner dipped in chocolate!) to share with her friends at Moe's. What better way to spend a day than being surrounded by those who love you? So, a whole cast of Keva fans participated: Caeli, some friends (Parker, Zach, Isable & parents), Grandpa Mike, Auntie Colleen, Alanna, a phone chat with Grandma and Grandpa, and of course, her biggest fans: Mommy, Daddy, and Tavish. There was jumping. There was sushi. There was cake. Happy birthday, Keva!

Urban Cook Out

Turns out, you can have a cook out in the heart of this great city! We got a permit, gathered the crew, and let the kids run free!

MOMENT: Outside Fun in the City

The ravine system in Toronto is a hidden gem and this group of friends uncovered a small section of it.  Kids played. Adults Chatted. Dinner. Marshmallows. Sparklers. This is how friends make memories!

Swinging and Skipping

We've got some batters swinging and a new skipper in these parts...

Batter Charlie. Catcher Tavish

Keva Steps Up to Bat

Swingers and Skippers Gotta Sleep!

MOMENT: Swing Batters Don't Skip a Beat

Tavish plays fielder for his bat swining buddy, Charlie. Keva takes a step up to bat. Tavish discovers skipping. It's all so fatiguing yet tiring that Daddy has to haul these swinging skippers off to bed!

Waterfront Weekend

Saturday was paddling to the Leslie Spit from Cherry Beach. Sunday was kite flying after a bike ride to the beach. Ahh, the perks of living near Lake Ontario.

Boat Full of Family

Beachcombers

City Scenery

Let's Go Fly a Kite!

Selfie Silliness

MOMENT: Canoe. Kite. Bike.

What more could we ask for? Family togetherness and a canoe, then a bike ride, then flying a kite. Fun family.

We're Off to See the Wizard

On April 24th, Grandma, Auntie Colleen, and Mommy took Tavish and Alana off to the Young People's Theatre to enjoy a performance of the Wizard of Oz. It was wonderful and inspired continued adoration for the story and the characters...

Keva as the Fairy Godmother

Alana as Dorothy

Tavish as the Wizard

MOMENTS: To Oz! To Oz!

It started with the show and ended with show of our own talent 4 months later! Keva along with dedicated painters, Tavish and Alana, pulled together quite the tribute to be displayed in Auntie Colleen's art room. It was a labour of love turned masterpiece unveiled and displayed at the end of August. Each character was a traced family member... Dorothy was Alana; the Wizard was Tavish; Fairy Godmother was Keva; Toto was Caroline; Wicked Witch was Auntie Colleen; and Kerry, Oksana, Tom, and Kath became the rest of the cast! A family tribute to a true classic!
