Jumping for joy.

Well, last weekend Roger and Tracey celebrated their 10th anniversary. The commemorated the event by getting away for an overnight trip to Whistler. Can you believe it's been almost 9 years since their last trip overnight anywhere without kids! Well, despite the rain, they enjoyed themselves with a dinner out and a night away from any screaming kids. Here are some pictures from the short trip. Here are the crazy kids on their honeymoon in Cuba: Here's the IG picture Roger put up: INSTAGRAM

First day of school.

Melody started grade one and Malcolm is now in grade four. It's been a long and eventful summer and Roger and Tracey are more than happy to see the kids start the school year. All in all, they've been pretty great the last two days. They even started Tae Kwon Do on Tuesday! Here are their first day of school pics. Elsa and Batman are on their way to school.

Summer is winding down.

It's sure been a long summer. We're winding down to the last week with Labour Day long weekend upon us. There are so many highlights from the summer, but one to really remember will be the hot, dry weather in Vancouver. Records were broken, water restrictions were implemented and Roger even came pretty close to buying a portable air conditioner. For Melody, she's been able to really swim, not quite yet confident to jump in the deep end and swim herself out of it, but she can seriously go underwater and propel herself a good 15 to 20 feet. Oh, and she's also mastered the backwards, underwater somersault (something her brother can't do yet). As for Malcolm, it's been a jam packed summer with camps, bike camp, camping and a couple of mini vacations to keep busy. Literally the last weekend before school starts. New backpacks are ready, school supplies and bought and all there is to do is for school to actually start on Tuesday. Here are some pictures from the past few weeks including the family's annual outing to the PNE, uncle Calvin's birthday, and our trip to the Aquarium on our last DaddyDayCare day of the summer. Now the first day of school......
