Let the summer begin!!!!!

As of yesterday at noon, Victoria is officially on summer holidays! She wrote her last exam Friday morning. What an incredible year it has been... We are incredibly thankful to see her so happy and enjoying her school and social life so fully.

Cheers to a wonderful summer ahead! We couldn't be more proud of you Tori!

My Dad's 65th!

All of our love and prayers for my Dad's 65th! We had a lovely visit with them to celebrate this extra special birthday. xo

Awards Ceremony!!!!!

This past week, we had the pleasure of going to an awards ceremony at Tori's school. She was presented with High Honours for Enriched Science, Ethics & Religion, Enriched English and Drama.

She was also presented with Honours in Phys.Ed (this didn't come from me LOL) and Enriched Math.

We couldn't be more proud of her many accomplishments and spirit.

P.S. The pictures we took are very blurry! On a side note, we met her boyfriend and his parents at the awards ceremony. Yes, you read correctly.... :) They are all very nice and we enjoyed talking with them...

The Big Dig

Well.... the time finally came..... For some time we have had some issues with our pipes in the front of our home. The city is responsible for a lot of it as the pipes were old and needed to be updated. However, also my beloved Rosabelle played a bit of a roll with her lovely roots. I ADORE Rosabelle and vowed to save her from an ill fate.... Thankfully by being completely stubborn, we were able to have the work done and save Rosabelle. Mission complete! Apart from cutting two branches, as you can see, she is still standing proud today! You may be laughing a little, but my drama is heartfelt!!!!!!

Walking with Tinkerbell....

On one of our evening walks, we had the treat of being accompanied by a prancing Tinkerbell.... These are incredible moments.... Besides, it isn't every day you can say you took a walk with Tink! xo

P.S. When you click on the pic and view it in large, note Mara-Grace's feet.... they aren't touching the ground! I would definitely say she does indeed have a little Tinkerbell magic in her!

Congratulations to Olivia!!!!!

As promised, here is a video of Olivia performing one of the songs from Pinocchio. As you can see, she was amazing as The Purple Fairy!!!!!
