Children's Festival Field Trip

I had the great pleasure of escorting Brennan and his classmates Clara, Elyse and Lucas, accompanied by all of the other grade 1 and 2 students and teachers from Ecole St Gerard and several mothers who also volunteered, to the Jack Singer Concert Hall for a performance of "Physical Music". Entertainers played unusual instruments upon which they simultaneously performed some amazing gymnastics. Amazing that some 50-odd children were so well behaved and truly delightful!

The Queen's Birthday

The Queen's Birthday provided a most memorable week-end for us. En route from Calgary to Invermere we admired bear and moose, as well as the usual deer, sheep and goats. The weather was beautiful and we were able to do some boating with the Taits,play a round of golf with the DeDominicis',Urquharts and Perrys, and share short visits with the Wipflis, Wilsons and Trimbles.

Another sign of spring: putting up the trampoline.

A Toast

A toast to Krystal's health! She has thankfully been released from hospital after an eventful week.

Spring

Spring must finally be here because there are crocus flowers in the park!

May Birthday

Lucinda and Jim recently celebrated their birthday. Lucinda was exploring castles in France with her family and Jim enjoyed an amazing cheesecake prepared by, and shared with his family. Since he is a passionate entomologist, it featured a collection of candy bugs and worms crawling in what looked like earth but was, in fact, ground Oreo cookie.I spent the day digging in my garden, as I had on the morning of May 07, 1973!!!!
