Kelowna with Savvy

Shark and Ty, despite our horrific timing, came out to support our Savvy on the court in K-town. Thank you, guys, for hosting despite the strain of the moment.

Late night work emails. Post whiskey. Wise, or...?

Goodbye, Louie!

He was truly a very good boy. 

Lots of sadness in our house, and on the street, and of course, for Team H. 



Scouts with Beast 3

 I am stuck doing the fundraising while Dob is out rocking it with the youngest beast. Epic adventures. Sometimes too epic!? But all character building and amazing.

(one night in a tent, the other in a snow cave!)

Superbowl 2025

Come for the wings, stay for the wings

Snack and bevvies were on point.



Fire Cadets

From Popo Camp to Fire Cadets, Savvy knows how to pursue very neat opportunities and SEIZE them! Glen and C went to watch her on Salt Spring after her week long camp and were thoroughly impressed. She nailed it! 
Out in front: 

Blindfolded, on air. Tight squeeze!

She loved the instructors and is very grateful for all of their time. A program led by so many generous volunteers.
The video is even cooler-





Mac - VVA Club Team

So fun watching Mac pick up this lovely game. VERY LUCKY with awesome coaches and kiddos + families.


More Buttercup Walkies

"Alone"

Sometimes you wake at 530am, tip toe out of the bedroom and hush hush your way down the computer to log some work. At 630, you sneak back up to wake your husband. But he's not there. Hmmm.

You check the basement couch. Nope. Hmmm.

You see the dishwasher has not been run. Hmmm. 

You see the dog is sleeping with a lit up collar, ON, and you think. Uh oh.

You start to hunt about in favourite places - the garage, the camping cupboard, the crawl space. Your heart is racing a bit now because it's waaaaay too late for the pub. He's fallen on a walk and is in a ditch. It's snowy outside, the dog came back alone and someone let him in thinking Glen was in the shower etc...

NOPE. He's just here. Snoring.



Christmas 2024

 

No snow, lots of rain. Not much rest, but still some great hikes and bike rides.

And special time with family.

Grandson and the master Chef (in her new jumper)
Family "fun" with games.



Always such a good boy.
Mega and Wendy 3. So special.




We missed Chi but Aya doubled down with the love and fun. And early morning hikes. Go, Aya!

Savvy did not miss a day with the cold jump. SO BRAVE!

We bullied her into the odd hike too-




A night to celebrate

 Joint birthdays are my favourite. Lemon drops for everyone!


This is 14 - Go Mac

Caught between a suit, ultraboosts, posh chains from a posh Aunt/Uncle, and ...light sabers. 

We love you, Mac! 
(Awwwww)
