Today was the last day of school for the kids, so instead of just having a picture I took today, I’ve put together a collage with pictures from each of their first day of school and one I took this morning. The school year is long with ups and downs, but both did amazing and both are excited to go back in the fall. Of course before then we have a summer of fun planned.
Today Bill and I headed down to the Rogers Centre for our 13th game of the year. For today’s picture I tried out my new toy. More on my new toy in the days to come.
Tonight while watching TV with Melissa, Ruby and I played tug-a-war. Our little Ruby isn’t so little anymore, but she’s still our puppy.
Today was report card day for the kids, and I couldn’t help but smile when I saw Violet’s picture on hers. Both kids did great. I’m so proud of them.

Today our little family met up with friends for a day of picnicking at Christie pits, and though I took pictures throughout the day, I love this one of Violet and Jacob I captured as we headed out.
Today was the first day of summer and to celebrate that, Melissa and Violet headed berry picking and Jacob and I headed out for a bike ride. First we hit a local park, then a little swim at the out-door pool, before grabbing a pizza lunch and heading out for a ride to Sunnyside. I captured today’s picture of they day on the Humber River bridge. I was impressed with how far Jacob was able to ride. It helped that we stopped at almost every park we passed. In the end our ride was close to 18 kms.
With the family all snuggled up in their beds, it’s time for me to relax with a beer and some Watch Dogs, my father’s day gift from the family.
Tonight was baseball night. The kids love getting into their uniforms and heading out to the diamond. Both kids had a good games, but Jacob shined. He had two hits and at least 1 RBI maybe more, I was watching Violet’s game when he got his second hit. To top it off after the game the coached called the team over and congratulated Jacob on a great game and gave him the game ball. I’m so proud of my little guy.
This evening when I sat down at my desk to do a bit of coding, I found Chloe laying across it, purring away. So out came the camera and I had my picture of they day.
