Life – Explained
This is how someone described life to me!
On the first day, God created the dog and said, “Sit all day by the door of your house and bark at anyone who comes in or walks past. For this, I will give you a life span of twenty years.”
The Best Week of My Life
Last week I attended a Peaks Potential Camp called “Mind of Steel, Heart of Gold”. It was the best week ever in Squamish BC. I met some awesome people, challenged myself all the way and did things I never imagined doing… yikes…

This lady sums up all that I believe in and would be great for many of us to follow. It is worth your minute.

Manitoba Kids Chinese Summer Camp
Today is the third day of the kids summer camp and they are having a blast. I have been picking up their friends Megan and Stephanie. My favourite part of the day is listening to them talk about their days, comparing notes and singing and making jokes. The drive to the camp is about half an hour so there is a lot of noise and laughter.
Patricia and Glen’s Wedding
Only July 18th 2010, Kyle’s cousin Patricia was married to Glen at the Breezy Bend Golf Course here in Winnipeg. It was so much fun. Kyle’s siblings and niece and nephews were all there and we had a great time. It was Andrew’s birthday and even after the birthday party, he had loads of energy to dance. You will notice the fatigue in some of the pictures.
Weddings are a good place to meet up with family, it was great to see his aunt Carol who we hadn’t seen since we left Ottawa 3 years ago. I love weddings. Matthew was proud about telling everyone that he danced to every single song til we left at around 10:3pm. Needless to say we all slept in Monday morning and took it easy.
Here are some of the pictures o the big day.
Strawberry Picking
Last Friday we went Strawberry Picking. Unfortunately on our drive there, I realized I forgot my camera so you will have to use your imagination.
Andrew is 7 today
What a week of partying. Last week was Natalie’s party and this week is Andrews. Today Andrew had 2 of his friends over for a little get together. He was so excited. He had pick out his clothes and underwear the week before. It was so funny when the boys arrived they were all dressed in the same colour. No wonder these boys hung out together in Kindergarten. They played, went to the park and had cake, before we knew it, the party was over and we had to get ready to go to the wedding…

Natalie’s Friend Birthday Party
Natalie has seen her siblings having their friends over for birthday parties so this year as she turned 5, she wanted to have her friend over too. It was a fun Monday afternoon. She had 4 little friends over which age ranged from 2-9 years. The party started at 1pm till about 5ish… They played in the basement, in the playroom, in the backyard, and we even went to the park. The only organized activity was a couple o games that we played, “pass the gift” and “musical chairs”. Other than that the kids just entertained themselves. I love throwing home parties, the kids get so creative and find different things to do and play. Here are a few pictures of the afternoon.
