CATCHING UP

 

Another week has gone by......

 

Nicest thing is.......

Joe is home

 

Ethan is putting his green runners on to go with  his 'hockey get-up'

Dad said he had to change shoes

Needed sturdy runners to run around the arena before the first game

 

Papa found a clip on tie for Ethan

Easier to get on and off when changing into his hockey gear

 

 

In a second he is going down

Off came the glove

Take a look at the stick of the Kamloops player

 

Down he went

Hit his head

No call from the ref

The boys played in a tournament

They played 4 games

Won 3 lost 1

Tied for 2nd with 3 other teams

Got knocked out of the playoff games

as

They had the most penalty minutes of the 4 teams

GOOD LESSON BOYS

 

Here comes the plane

 

Stephanie asked her Dad what he wanted to eat

after he was finished with

'his diet'

A hamburger loaded

from

FIVE GUYS

I think I have said this before

'The boy' introduced us to

FIVE GUYS

in

Arizona

 

Monday morning we had pink clouds

 

Monday was also picking day

Pinot Noir

A first haul of grapes for the new truck

 

It was good to see Joe outside

 

The weather has changed

It was bloody cold walking down the drive yesterday morning

 

Wednesday

Picking day

 

 

Riesling

 

Nikki came down from Pemberton

Her friend Jane came from Squamish

 

This is a first for Jane

She was well prepared

 

Of course Rosco came too!

 

Linda had two jobs

Picking grapes

and

Throwing the ball for Hunter

 

It's the change in the weather that makes the grape leaves take on the different colours

Just like trees!

 

Fifteen bins went off to Ruby Blues

for

Future Tight Rope wine

 

Smile for the camera!!!!!

 

Papa getting the pizza ready for the oven

 

Garen made his pizza

Pesto sauce

Cheese

Pepperoni 

 

It never fails

Whenever I get the laundry out of the dryer

Bing is right there

Whenever I change the bed

Bing is right there

Scurrying under the sheets

How does he know?????

 

Had a phone call from Daycare this morning

Garen was a bit under the weather

Here he is helping me fold laundry

 

I got out the vacuum

Garen took over!

Doesn't look like he is under the weather

Maybe he just needed a quiet day

 

The sun is trying to come out

 

Dig those 'duds'

 

Nikki was saying there was a photo she and Les liked of Rosco

Rosco was shaking a paw

So...........

We decided to see if we could capture something similar to the old photo

I took at least 30 pictures

Out the back

In the house

Out front

 

Love this one of the paw on the hand

Nikki has a treat in her hand

I'm sure you can guess that by the look of Rosco

 

I think I like this one the best!

 

The girls taking a breather

They were helping Graham bring in the nets this morning

 

The Dad and the son soaking up a bit of the sun

We have had rain for a few days now

The warmth of the sun feels good

 

 

 

Everyone was outside!

 

I made venison stew for supper

 

Joe took the girls to the Giroux orchard to pick apples

He came home with a varitey of fruit

Made up this 'still life' for me to take a photo

 

Nikki and Jane are in charge of making a salad

There's everything in there but the kitchen sink

 

Voila

 

A NICE DAY
