Proud Parents

Our boys finished their first set of swimming lessons today. We picked up their progress cards and they both did great. They have come along way from the first day of lessons ... Randy wouldn't even get in the water at first. Its kind of a neat feeling to be so proud of them. The weather is great and we had a picnic lunch outside .... lots of fun. They both seem really happy.

Victoria Weekend

We had a action packed Victoria Day Weekend. Wendy's brother Tim and Family came up for a visit on Saturday. All of the cousins had a great time playing together. On Sunday Paul and I went for a bike ride in the park ... we cycled along for a while and to our suprise we were stopped by the police ... they had rifles and asked us how we got into the park. We found out that there had been a bear siting and the police and closed the entire park off to everyone (except us somehow). Anyways they eventually captured the bear and everything was ok.

Today we went to a farm. The boys got to ride ponies, milk a cow, ride on a hay wagon, chase after chickens, roosters, ducks, emus, horses, cows, goats, sheeps, pigs etc. etc. They had a great time ... I think their favorite part was talking about all of the different types of poopies all over the ground .... gross!

Our boys on Mothers Day ... we are so proud. 

The Morning After (Mothers Day)

Yesterday was amazing ... Wendy had a perma-grin all day long. We went to a Mothers Day tree planting thing at the park in the morning. Wendy planted four trees with the boys. The local newspaper was there and took their picture ... we will wait to see whether they make the front page :)

Wendy's mother and two of her brothers came over with their kids in the afternoon. Paul and Randy played with their cousins and seemed to have a great time. BBQd hamburgers and corn on the cob ... just had a blast.

It felt like the boys have been here all along.
