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.

It is starting to feel like fall in the morning!

And so begins another school year

Grade 1!!!!!

Some days I wake up happy...

Some days I wake up like this!

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.
