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 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.
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.
A few weeks back at camp Violet painted this ceramic monkey, because of our family adventure getaway it wasn’t till today that she brought it home. I’m really impressed with the paint job she did with the little guy.
Today we have a picture of our little butterfly. After camp today my mom took the kids to the comunity block party where Violet had her face painted.
Tonight I have a picture of Violet and Ruby. Violet as trying to make Ruby look pretty, the truth was she was doing anything to stay out of bed. Ruby was a good sport. It was a very cute moment.
Today’s picture of the day is Jacob riding a bike at the local park. It wasn’t his bike, and was a littke big for him. Of course to me it was just a preview of next summer.
