Thanksgiving in Kelowna
As is our tradition, we enjoy an annual trip out to Kelowna to visit some vineyards, relax and waterslide. This year, our trip coincided with Thanksgiving, which was celebrated at Joey’s Kelowna with a yummy meal. We all enjoyed this break from school/work with lots of laughter.
Heart Beats Walk and Run
ScoutJ and I took up walking in the summer as a way to spend time together and exercise while he was in his cast. This led us to take on the challenge of walking a 5km race. Our race of choice was The Heart Beats walk/run which raises money for children suffering from heart disease.Having more than a few running t-shirts of my own from over the years, I knew just how much fun this could be for ScoutJ. He enjoyed the day, the competitive aspect of it and even managed to kick out a few bursts of jogging. The highlight for him was definitely his sprint to the finish line. What a great way to try something together. I hope in the years to come there will be several more for me.
DaddyJ’s Birthday
This year being a pre-milestone birthday was celebrated on a weekday with dinner and DaddyJ’s favourite desserts at home. These included donuts from Jelly Modern (Bacon Maple of course), Strawberry Rhubarb Pie from the Log Cabin and Huckleberry and Vanilla ice cream from Village Ice Cream! While we were all hopped up on sugar for days, it was well worth it and I think that DaddyJ even enjoyed it a little bit.
My favourite part, was the card from the kids which reminds
him that the “nuts don’t fall from the tree”! Tee hee hee, happy birthday
DaddyJ.
BrownieJ is officially a Brownie!
October saw BrownieJ officially enrolled into her Brownie troop. Or as we like to say, baked up into a Brownie. Yippie
Halloween 2012
BrownieJ, ScoutJ and BuddyP all enjoyed trick or treating together at Halloween in BuddyP’s community while I handed out candy at home. A great time was had by all. Thanks for a great night Sfamily.
