Today the kids and I headed to the master centre for some skating. I have to say the cold if the arena was quite nice on this hot summer day.

Today we headed out to get the kids new shoes for the coming school year. After some effort we managed to get a pair for each of them. Tonight though I share a little collage I put together of Jacob Tieing the laces of his new shows. Perhaps tomorrow I’ll share a picture of Violet’s new shoes.

Tonight we have a picture of an excited Jacob looking over his new Pokémon box.

Today I have a picture of Violet as she runs out to join her last Soccer practice after a water break.

Today we headed up to pick up Violet and Ben from Summer camp. While both were happy to see their parents, I think they both would have been happy to spend more time at camp. Of course they will hopefully be heading back next summer, but that is a long time.

Today with the kids away, Melissa and I had a late night treat at Tom’s Dairy Freeze.

Today we sent Violet off to her first overnight camp. She was so excited to go. I tried to get a nice picture with just me and her…. That didn’t work out.

Tomorrow my little girl heads off to a few days of overnight camp. Part of me wishes that she wasn’t growing up so fast. Of course a larger part is thrilled to see her grow and experience new things. So today I have a picture of all her stuff packed up and waiting to head to camp in the morning.

Today Violet was at a birthday party with a very Special guest. It was amazing to watch as Cinderella interacted with the kids, and kept tall of them engaged, especially the birthday girl who had a huge smile on her face the entire time. It was great to watch. A question for my readers, can you tell what Disney Princess Violet is dressed as?

Tonight we have a picture from the kids knew Friday night Taekwondo class. Jacob had taken it Saturday mornings, but today he switched to Friday night and was joined by Violet. They both seemed to have fun with the kicking drills.
