Today Melissa snapped this picture of Ruby as she peeked over the patio fence wondering when I was getting home.

Tonight we have a picture of my to little girls, both being a little naughty. Violet is up way past her bed time, thanks to an afternoon nap. Ruby is on the couch which she knows she isn’t supposed to be on. 

The other day Jacob came home from day camp with this creation. His very own Poké Ball. It’s amazed me how into Pokémon my boy has become. I think it’s finally dethroned Power Rangers for his favourite toys right now. Of course between Figures, Video Games, TV shows and the Card game there is a lot of different things to entertain him.

Today we have a picture of Jacob during tonight’s soccer game.

Today Jacob and I braved the scorching sun to watch the Jay’s beat the Yankees 3-1 at the Rogers Centre. It was fun being at the ball park with my boy. It was better that the Blue Jay’s were able to avoid the sweep and stay just a half game back of the division league.

This afternoon I headed down to take in a rare Saturday afternoon game. It amuses me that over the past few years I’ve probably been to close to 50 games with these tickets, but have sat in the seats less than 6 times.

Tonight Jacob and I had a Guys night. we headed to the theater to see Pixels. Jacob loved it, and I really can blame him. if you get past the predictable plot and cliché characters it can was fun. specially if you played Video games in the 80s.

Tonight after dinner Jacob, Ruby and I headed to an off leash area to let Ruby run around. I captured today’s picture of the day while Ruby rested.

Today the Jays did something they haven’t done since I was a teenager. They took moved into first place in the America League East. Sure, it’s early. There is still almost 50 games left in the season and they will have to play well to stay there. But it was only 2 weeks ago that they were 8 games back and it was hard not to feel like they were headed for anther disappointing season. Oh what a different a week makes. Go Jays Go..

Today I have a panorama from the Jays game. It’s amazing how many people where there for a Tuesday night game. Between the players the team picked up at the trade deadline and the 9 game winning streak the excitement around the Jays is something not seen in this town for over 20 years.
