August 28th


oops, my days are out of order (and i'm too lazy to erase my previous posts and redo them :)

This is not the greatest picture but I was so excited to get it. I decided to take out my camera and take a couple of pictures of my son's soccer tournament...as soon as I held up the camera, my son got a goal (he's the one on the ground). He was so excited, especially since all of his grandparents were there watching

I went hiking in the Gatineau Hills with a Friend today. She brought along her 3 daughters plus one of her daycare kids. I brought along my kids, my daughter's best friend and the dog (the 4 on the left). It was such a beautiful day and I can't wait to go back when the leaves change colour

We got a nice surprise today! My daughter's caregiver from when she was 8 months to 3 years old happened to be in town and stopped by for a visit. She moved to Toronto 8 years ago so we haven't seen her in a long time.

I helped my husband coach our daughter's soccer team this summer...we had a blast but i'm glad it's over (at least until winter soccer starts up at the beginning of October)

We took the kids to visit the Diefenbunker.  The Diefenbunker is a huge four-storey bunker, buried deep under a hillside and meant to house the prime minister and other government officials in a nuclear war. It was built in the 1960's has now been decommissioned and is used as a museum

We're trying to walk to the Beaver Pond as much as possible before the trees get clear cut. I think I might try and have my Fall mini sessions here if the trees are still around (the different community groups in the area have been doing a good job getting the builder to delay cutting the trees down)

I love this plant....it's a hibiscus that my friend Alison gave to me a couple of summers ago. It accidentally got dug up by some landscapers last summer but managed to survive and this year it's had so many beautiful flowers.
