Happy Canada Day!

I had actually scheduled this to post yesterday, but somehow it didn't happen - so it is a little late!

Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadians!

I hope that you have a fun, enjoyable Holiday - and remember to stay safe - no drinking and driving!

We host an annual bbq on Canada Day - the kids play, we est and socialize - and watch fireworks that nearby neighbours sometime have (if ppl are here late enough) Some years we are out on the deck until 2am, and other years it is earlier. Now that most of us have kids, I imagine tonight will be earlier.

I will be back tomorrow to post some pictures!

Happy Canada Day!

Swimming class ends today

As the title states, the swimming class Kyle and I participate in is ending today. I am sad to see that happen.  While we have missed a few classes, it was really nice to know that I would see 3 of my girlfriends and their little dudes every week.

With summer approaching, it also means that 2 of those friends will be heading back to work soon - sigh.

great friends

I have been on a web forum for a number of years. A friend recommended it to me when I was planning my wedding, and I got hooked. After the wedding, I stayed on the site but spent more time in the family section.

After finding out I was pregnant with my 2nd child, I joined a monthly group for others that were due in the same month.  Since Kyle was born, I have actually met some of these women, that live in the area. It is so nice to have friends with children going through the same things (even though they may be different in terms of meeting milestones, they are all at the same stages etc).

These same women are the ones that are attending swim class with Kyle and I.  It really amazes me that after all these years on the website, I have met some great friends. Thanks ladies!
