Happy Graduation Savvy!

She's on her way to high school next year, and Lansdowne through an epic paint ball send off from middle school!

Two more weeks, Savvy. You got this!

Truth & Reconciliation

 
215 orange hearts at the Willows fences is of course only a gesture, but still so grateful to the teachers who are trying to help our children understand our past, and bring truth to what really happened at residential schools. It's led to some of the most difficult and important conversations we have ever had at home with our kids. The stories and poetry that have been triggered by the discovery of the first of no doubt many unmarked, mass grave are well outside my range, but I am forcing myself to listen.

A Special Toy

 He carries his special stuffy ball with him. He licks it. But he doesn't chew. He's playing the long game!

No Spectating During Covid!

But you can snap shots of your kids pitching as you are cycling away from the pitch after field prep, right?

Ka$h's Birthday!

We Unsworthed, we lounged, we ate, we campfired. There was wood chopping, fire starting, and maybe even fun "at the range". There were outfit changes. And let's not forget the satellite gazing!

Happy Birthday Ka$h!

 

Cutie Spotting!

 Chi found this double trouble outside Ruth & Dean. Besties.

And more jamming. The band is coming together!

Birds and the Deck

 
It's coming together, hey!? New cushions, ou la la!

Here is to many, many, many happy meals out on the argument couch (rebranded after it came titled "the conversation set" and then Glen and I got into a battle re naming the space!).

Did I post this one already?

Charades, outside after dinner. What a treat.

Chopping wood makes for a Dirty Dob.

Jumping in the background

No matter what is going on in the house, there are usually colours and shadows jumping in the background! In ground trampoline for the win!
