Still

I pick Jaden up in 23 minutes, and our Christmas holiday will begin.  Enjoying a few last moments of quiet.  It's even still and peaceful outside.

The view right now

Here we are at mt. Tallac trail at Tahoe. Check out my view.

Winnipeg Goldeyes vs Wichita Wingnuts

I took Jaden to his first ever baseball game. I asked Jaden about his favorite part...thinking it would be one of the many treats he had. Nope. He said "when our team scored." :). The building in the background is the Canadian Human Rights Museum, opening in 2014.

I took a pic of the guys on the field during a "Pork Trivia" contest - I liked his bacon suit.

Moose Lake

Last week we went out to Moose Lake, located in Southeastern Manitoba. Our family has been going since my brothers were kids.

I drove a boat for the first time in many years... And the boys got to try their hand at fishing. We didn't catch anything but saw a few perch and a jack fish follow our lures up to the boat. Jaden exclaimed he thought it was going to be a good trip but he didn't think it would be that good.

St. Vital Park today

Here's a few pictures of my favorite place in Winnipeg. We went for a nice stroll today.

Lower Fort Garry - mid-July

One of our many stops this trip was to Lower Fort Garry. Important during the fur trade, the fort is filled with some of the important history of Manitoba. The boys enjoyed visiting with people from the era (actors) and taking part in a posse to solve a murder mystery x

Having a Great Time in Winnipeg

The boys and I are having a great time in Winnipeg. Lots to see and do. Here's a couple of pics of the boys.

I'll post more from our adventures soon.

Coyote Hills Regional Park

It was a very busy weekend what with the boys having a birthday party and cousins sleeping over.

Today we went on a long hike to Coyote Hills Park. We found several letterboxes. Jaden found a cool salamander. Here's some pics from the weekend!!

At the library

Here's a pic in front of the library last week

Lucas is Four!

We are at the park today waiting for Tyson to get home. Then it's off to Chuck E. Cheese. Fun!

I loved the pic of the boys walking here together.

The picture of Luke napping was a few days ago.

Jaden in Cub Scouts

Well, the dust has finally settled from the holidays and it's a good chance for me to post some pictures from the last month. Here's the first installment.

Lucas sure loves to help cooking! If only he wanted to eat too.

Over the Christmas break, we visited Linda and Don in Arizona. This is our trip to Rooster Cogburn's Ostrich farm. The deer were nice to feed. The ostrich? Not so much.

I have lots of pictures with the boys and the lorikeets. I will get more up because they are hilarious. This was the only one on my phone.

Jaden joined cub scouts, and of course loves it. He is very proud his uniform (and didn't complain about having to have his hair combed)
