Happy Spring!

Thought we'd share some photos from the past few months.

Easter!

Hunting for eggs in the garden.

Showing off our Easter goodies and crafts (dyed eggs and Gryffin's paper mache egg basket).

Rowyn and her pretty new Easter outfit.

Gryffin's Top Secret 7th birthday party, held at the GMM Secret Spy Agency

Twelve Secret Agents were sent on a mission to find the missing birthday cake. Now quick eat it before it explodes!!


Do you recognize these mysterious people?

Secret Agent (007) Gryffin
Secret Agent (0011) Rowyn

Happy Birthday Gryffin!

Gryffin shows us his eye-popping birthday cupcakes.

Here's Rowyn riding her bike. No training wheels! Yay, Rowyn!

Skiing in the beautiful Callaghan Valley. Daddy competed in the 15km Loppet (his first race in a few years).




Gryffin catches some air sledding during a rare March snowfall in Vancouver.

Christmas is coming...

Santa came to Gryffin's school this week, so the kids had a chance to say hi and tell him their Christmas wishes. Gryffin: a detective kit; Rowyn: a transformer (?!)
Ho, ho, ho!

Enjoying the autumn leaves on Parker St.

New Windows!

The new windows arrived on Thursday, February 4. The 3 workers arrived at 11:30 am, just a tad late, but wasted no time in getting started. The first window was out and in by 12:30 and by 6 pm all 8 windows were in and the workers were gone.

Removing the front awning.

The living room is a lot brighter with the awning gone.

We think the front of the house looks better too!

Front window gone.

New front window going in.

New front window in. Just a few plants were trampled.

Gryffin wasn't very pleased about the plants.

New windows!

Happy New Year

It's been a bit rainy, but we went to the beach today...

Rowyn spotted some ships.

Anchor's aweigh!

Merry Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house not a creature was stirring not even a Gryffin or Rowyn... until 2 am when Gryffin asked Daddy if he could turn the light on to look at books because he was too excited to sleep.

Gryffin opening his stocking.

Rowyn checking out her new purse!

Gryffin with 1 of his 2 new Transformers. He's wanted this one since the summer and even made up a song about it when he lost his front teeth.

All I want for Christmas are my two...

Rowyn pretending to be a present. Her words were "I hide, I hide under tree"

Gryffin getting ready to ride his new bike.

Candle light Christmas dinner. The camera flash makes it look brighter. A few weeks back Gryffin found some candles and thought it would be neat to eat dinner by candle light. Since then Sunday has become candle light dinner night.

Bed time is so much more fun when you have new pajamas to wear, plus Super Heroes don't need to go to bed!

Bed time, says who? First we must do battle and save the world...
