Cobwebs



This is what my brain feels like it is full of when the little one is sick and I'm up half the night with her.

Done!

One more Melissa's done!  Lots of foul language used going up the hill :)  It was a great week-end, with beautiful weather and beautiful company.  See you next year!

Why do I do this to myself?

Seriously, what was I thinking when I signed up for the race that goes up this hill?  Pah!

They really do grow fast

And yet still maintain those fantastic personality traits that I love so much.  I remember this "I only turned my back for a second" moment.  That speed has not changed.

Why ruin it?

I love the colours of the sunrises and sunsets and we are getting to the time of year where I actually enjoy being up with the sun.  I am not a morning person so having the sun rise at 4:30 am and subsequently the kids...well it's not a pretty combination.  So to be standing enjoying the sunset and have someone say "the colours are only that brilliant because of all the pollution" makes me want to slap you.  It's good information but shut up and enjoy the peace of the moment.

Mud Puddles

My kids went out to my parents for a sleepover a couple of weeks ago and there were no mud puddles.  My brother felt bad so he dug a hole in the garden filled it with water and created a mud puddle for my kids.  This isn't it but it shows how much they enjoy puddles!

Goosebumps

This was my 7th year of cheering at Ironman Canada and the start line never fails to give me goosebumps!

Away

My thoughts have been elsewhere and not of things that I have wanted to write about.  Today it struck me that I could just post pictures and be happy with that.  So begins that phase of "a picture is worth a thousand words" because I don't feel like writing 100.
