Today we have a picture of Ruby relaxing after a long day, that included a visit with her sister Porscha .

Today was hockey prep day for our little family. We pulled out the hockey bags and tried on all the equipment seeing what fit and what didn’t.  It seems it mostly fits, we might have to get one or to things but nothing major. After we were done, Violet was all about hockey. Begging me to get out the net and play hockey with her. So I spent most of the afternoon outside with her playing hockey.

Today I took a little time for me and headed to a local Tim Hortons to try their new Dark Roast coffee. I have to say it was pretty good. I think I like it more than their regular roast.

After a long road trip the Blue Jays returned to Toronto, so Bill and I headed down to the Rogers Centre to watch the game.  It was a disappointing 8-0 lose. Still with only 6 weeks left in the regular season, I’ll be at every game I can.

Today I captured this picture of the kids, and it makes me wonder if they are from Gatlin. Of course it was just the flash, still they looked cute so it is of course my picture of the day.

.Tonight after the kids were in bed I decided to sit back and spend some time with Melissa and Enjoys a beer. I usually only do that on Friday but for me, today feels like a Friday, except for having to work tomorrow that is.

Today Jacob had a bike rodeo at camp, so the kids got to ride and scoot to camp this morning. I captured todays picture of the day as we walked to camp.  They both loved ‘riding’ to camp, I expect they will both want to do it again tomorrow.

Tonight while we were out Jacob lost a tooth, it was so strange. One minute it was in his mouth, the next he was showing it off. he was so proud of it.

Today I took Ruby out for some fetch. I captured today’s picture of the day while we played.

Today we headed down to the Canadian National Exhibition. It’s a bitter-sweet tradition for our family. It’s sweet because we always have fun, and today was no exception. Even with the rainy weather we all had a blast. It’s better because it also means that summer is coming to an end.  It of course was also a long day, so even though I took a ton of pictures, I thought this one of the lit up ferris wheel would be a great way to capture the day.
