Whistler 2013 - Team LIA Reunites on the Slopes!


Team Nielsen and Team Roberts joined forces for a weekend in Whistler.  I was a bit of a downer with a nasty flu/sinus infection and a nastier still fall on the slopes that left my tail bone seriously bruised and aching.  But the party carried on with the huge support of Dob, PBC and FT (thank you all!).  Not to mention Whistler Kids Camp and a Sat night babysitter...

Birthday Wrap Up Part 2

 Yes, we get some weird looks about town since Sav decided to adopt her Valentine's day love heart patch
 It really was a lovely weekend of sunshine
The patch goes up for this very serious monkey business
Lovely date night with the hub and his fancy take-pics-at-night camera (we call her, Baby).

Birthday week has been a big hit.  Family dinners, waffle breakfast, time with friends, date night, thoughtful gifts (including an amazing kindle:), international best wishes, and SUNSHINE!!! Hello 39!
Just hanging out

Mac shows off his piggy back rider gadget.  (We'll spend money on anything, but especially gadgets).

Happy Valentine's Day MegaDob!





































I turned 21 in Scotland, but not without a wee taste of Canada!

School Play

So nice to have the sun out this afternoon.  Sav played nicely with Mac in the school yard and Mac soaked up the attention in his rocking homemade jumper.

Who is Ready for Camping!?


Santa sent a pretty tough lego project
 Two hours and 40 instruction pages later, the camper is ready!
The real tough job was keeping Mac out of the way. 
(Auntie A, he hasn't taken off his Fireman Sam shirt since it arrived. P.U.!)

Mac the week before he knows what's about to hit him!


A nice dry Friday afternoon.  
Mac's walking more these days...to the park and back....to the coffee house and back... all in preparation for day care Tues and Thurs with Jalena (Yalena) - a Yaletown child minder who also takes care of three other lovely kids.  They walk everywhere in a wee group along with several other child minders from the area. We hung out with them a few times last week to prep Mac.  He misses Amy but think he'll come on board.  Might take a few weeks of adjusting though as he's going through a clingy phase.

We've had some computer issues.  Three laptops down and stuck with a measly tablet and 2 smart phones.  Plus the PC we have been mooching from Nana.  We persevere.  The blog must go on!

A blast from the frisbee past

Very fun to be going through old pics, scanning and sharing them.
