Apple picking!

We got together to pick apples in celebration of my daddy's birthday today!

What great weather we had! It was actually a bit 'too hot' for us. We opted to pick from the Honey Crisp section (which are a personal fave of mine), so most of our time was spent there!

Happy Birthday Daddy... maybe I'll bake you an apple pie! :)

The CNE!

Since Ron took Jacen to Fan Expo today, I decided to take Jaina with me to the Ex! Oh, and my brother came too.

I finally got to try the cocoa chicken, which surprisingly wasn't bad! Coke also had a booth where you could get your name on a can (for FREE), so we lined up and I was able to get them for my entire family. Gotta love the EX!!

5 years!

It only took FIVE years to finally get me one of these boxes!! :)

I also got 3 bottles of wine... does my hubby KNOW me or what?!? lol

Happy Anniversary Ron!

Funnel cake!

I love the summer because it means it's funnel cake season! Yum yum gimme some!

Celebrating Canada Day...

a day later! We took a day trip to Niagara Falls since Ron had taken a couple of days off.

I've never been to the Hershey store before, so we checked that out, the tourist strip area, oh, and the falls of course! No photos of the kids because they wouldn't cooperate, so we had some dude just take a photo of US! :)

Congratulations on your Graduation!

Jaylene and Justin graduate grade 8 today. I took the kids to watch, and it was nice to see my niece and nephew graduate! They had a slideshow presentation and it showed them when they were in kindergarten and it almost made me cry (and these aren't even my kids!).

At the end when they received their diplomas, the grads each received a rose to give to one of their parents (which I thought was a nice touch). Well... my boy took the rose from my sister and decided to give it to his mama as well.... how sweet!

Justin and Jaylene's Confirmation!

We celebrated the confirmation of Justin and Jaylene today. I was Justin's godmother and my sister Sarah was Jaylene's godmother. It made for a big fam jam celebration!

It's nice that these two cousins are the same age/grade and go to the same school!
