Tadpole Update


No legs yet!

Our First Practise

Coach Kent (thats me) was very proud of my soccer team as we finished our first practice last night. The team looks great and is doing a fantastic job.
HI HO SILVER!



In the Tiki Tiki Tiki Room




My daughter had her ballet recital on the weekend.
It was great.
She was a Tiki Bird in the Tiki Room and did a really great job. The show was very entertaining, and we bought the DVD. The ballet studio has done well by us.

Happy Victoria Day




Happy Victoria Day.



In the photo, my daughter and son celebrate with some sparklers.

Tadpoles

We collected baby tadpoles, and we are going to feed them and watch them change into frogs. I will post photos as they grow. Consider it our own science experiment.



Opening up the cottage



It was a warm sunny weekend at the cottage.





We launched the boat, went fishing, went for hikes and collected fiddleheads. The bugs weren't too bad, and I even set up my telescope. The kids had a great time.

Travel coin race. the results


Our travel coin travelled over 13000 miles in one year. We came in 11th place out of over 120 teams in the travel coin race. That's not too bad, considering our coin was lost for 4 months. Thanks a bundle to the organizers. It was a lot of fun.
