Swimming at Sunrise


Don't want to talk about it.

 

Mac turns 8!!!

Our Mac is a lovely wee boy with the nicest of friends. He still loves pokemon, parkour and is right into jujitsu. He had his first sleepover party with his pals and it was a ton of silly fun, spying on Savannah and her friend, playing games and watching Thor.

Although his sister baked these cupcakes, Mac still doesn't eat baked goods. Chocolate and candy, yes. Cake and cookies, no.

Thank you friends and family, far and near, for the well wishes and birthday love for Mac!

-
Mac had a toonie party and donated half his funds to a charity of his choice. He opted for homelessness in Montreal as he was still upset about a homeless man we'd seen from last March, barely managing in the cold as we walked passed. He was so distraught that we did not stop to give him money - many tears and much confusion for the rest of the night as we walked on to a warm theatre for popcorn and our viewing of Black Panther. I wish now that we had stopped - gone to a bank machine and circled back to the man, in his torn gloves and his ratty, way-too-thin coat. Yes of course there are more efficient ways to donate, but Mac was moved by this man, and why didn't we honour Mac's compassion in that moment. Sigh.



New Year's 2018

New Year's Loveliness with Team Nielsen at their beautiful cabin in Hemlock Valley. Sasquatch mountain is a perfect place for families to log some affordable shredding time (day and night), and hang with your besties as you bring in 2019. I'm just sad there were no pics of the ping pong shenanigans. But happy there are no pics of Rocket pooping on the new carpet...
 
 Poor Rocket can't compete for cuteness with wee Indie (had to burrow these pics from Buttercup's files as there weren't enough of her cuteness on my phone).
 Sporting the Mac Ride shirt, passed down from Joey, and right over Rocket who grew too quickly!



 
 


Rocket's first snow trip. He LOVED it! He played nicely with Dr Jones, and ran wild in the white stuff, chasing snowballs.

 Thank you for hosting, Team N!
