Owen has been asking constantly to go skating for the last month or two. Ever since we took him to the Oiler game all he has talked about was going to play hockey… we told him that he needed skates and a helmet first and that we would take him and Brandon to get the … [Read more…]
Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters! Owen recently went to his first hockey game. Our neighbours had Oiler tickets and invited Owen and myslef to go along with them. During the first intermission Nick (our neighbour) bought the kids the Oilers foam fingers and what a hit they were at the game. I thought that we … [Read more…]
Lately both Owen and Brandon have been a little more scared to go to bed. They are worried about monsters, dragons, bad guys and fire. Of course we tell them that Kosmo protects the house and will not let them in after all that is what puppies do! Our imaginations can get the best of … [Read more…]

We wanted to send out actual Christmas Cards this year so we planned ahead to shoot them and then have lots of time to put everything together and get them printed. Who knew that it would take 2 days of shooting to get the amout of “co-operation” we needed from our kids! I created the … [Read more…]
We put our tree up a few weeks ago and while the lights were being put on (boring stuff) the boys and I relaxed waiting for the green light to start putting ornaments up. As you can see once the green light came the troublesome two wasted no time in getting to work. Brandon needed … [Read more…]
