Street Party Weekend

This year marked the 10th anniversary of the annual Coady Avenue Street Party! Although it was our 5th street party, the excitement and anticipation was as high as ever!

MOMENT: Celebrating Street Style!

The kids woke up excited. I try to feed them breakfast, but then I lost them to the street.
It really is a lovely community day spent outside your front day and the day never disappoints!

SK & Grade 3

They are back to school books, recess, and packed lunches!

Keva is back with Ms Sharma and Ms Uson in SK.

Tavish is back with Mme Ehrhardt in grade 3.

Both kids are happy to have their same teacher again - yay!

A muddy (and therefore short) after-school play for the girl in SK!

The Eve of the Eve of School

The night before the night before school (so, the last school-night-free night of summer), the four of us snuggled into the back 'yard' for an end-of-summer flick: Despicable Me. We are digging our new back yard digs!

Homey Highlights from Summer 2017

Our pace is quick and we are usually far-flung from home, but when we are home, there is happiness, creativity, friends, and adventure is never that far away...

Fort Fran-fun 2017

Always the highlight of summer! We are a real cast of characters when we get together in Fort Frances. So much fun to be had...

MOMENT: Family, Friends, Food, and Fun

All of the highlights can be re-visited through video to help us get excited for the next visit!

Privacy

After a swim at the cabin, Keva is walking toward the cabin with her swimshirt off, bottoms being pulled down to her knees...

Keva: I want to change in Grandma and Grandpa's room for privacy

Cute Conversations

Keva: "Tavish, would you like to have some of my appletizers?"

Later...

Tavish: "Keva, if Santa Claus asked you right now, what would you say you want for Christmas?"
[pause]
Keva: "40 money and a dinosaur. A real one."

Out of the mouth of babes... <3 p="">
