Time Travelling Monkeys

 It's true, you heard correctly, we have a child in a boy band.

MOMENT: Time Travelling Monkeys

These boys have an actual song, With lyrics. And, it is sort of catchy. Earlier this month, we are pretty sure Tavish was up in his room writing songs for the back that includes all the usual suspects: Jack (keyboard), Zach (drums), Charlie (bass), Riley (singer), Tavish (electric guitar). Riley created a logo with music notes and a stick figure monkey with a clock for a head...

Girls Trip to Long Point

Keva and I hit the road (and drove a bit far too) with some neighbourhood friends for a quick camping trip to catch the tail end of that summer feeling!

MOMENT: Long Point Fun

Rachel and Adelaide were up for an adventure, and adventure we did. We didn't stay too late on Sunday because of a tragic incident involving a burning marshmallow and Addie's cheek from the night before! The good news is that it all turned out okay and we can take the more positive memories away with us!

Jazz Dancer

We have a new jazzy dancer in the family! Keva is signed up for an after-school pick up program that ends with a jazz dance class. Needless to say, she is pretty excited about it...

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...
