Bread Lady

Jamie got to go and help out in Stefan's class today.  I was working and hate missing out but at least I was at the same school so I was able to go and get this cute picture.  They were learning all about bread with the Bread Lady.  She teaches them everything they need to know from the very beginning about wheat to the point of baking.  So much fun.

Rylan Basketball

Rylan did spring league basketball also this year.  Because there wasn't enough his age they combined the girls and boys teams.

They were all fairly new to the game but they played their hearts out.

They all made huge improvements over the season.

But had a great time.  Their coach was so great and taught them so much.  They didn't care whether they won or lost but had so much fun doing it.  :)

Stefan Goalie

For the younger group in lacrosse they don't actually have a designated goalie but instead they all take turns.  Stefan has been waiting for this opportunity.

He had a great time.  I love seeing them all bundled up in the equipment.

Stefan and his best buddy Parker.

Ready to get started.

He managed to protect a couple of shots.

But that ball can me pretty tricky some times.  LOL

Playing peek a boo with us.

Heading out.  It was a lot of fun for him.

Keagan Basketball

Keagan is out basketball player.  He did community league for the winter season.  Then it was time for Spring League.  This was their team.

He was also on his school team.  It made for a very busy time.  This is the finals for the school league.

It was a great game.

Keagan had some great shots.

And blocks.

Getting it in.

At the end of the day they managed to pull it off and won Gold.

It was so exciting.

They got to have a special banner to hang in the gym. 

Everyone gets to hold the trophy.

Keagan was the team captain so was able to except the award.

Way to go team

This was another tournament that they were in and they won gold in that one too.

New York City!!!

It is finally Stefan's turn for his father son trip to New York!!!  Getting ready for their flight and as you can see Grandma is there for the final one going to New York  She has been a part of these trips since the very first one with Darien.

Jamie loves to sit beside the window.  LOL

He is out our little one.

Auntie Sherri met up with them in New York.  What a treat for Stefan to have so many people with him.

They did the bus tour almost every day.

The weather was great for them.

Enjoying the view.

That is one cool kid.  LOL

On the ferry.

The view of Manhattan.

How lucky is he.

There is no where else like New York.

Like a kid in the candy store or in this case toy store.

On top for Rockefeller.

The amazing view.

Auntie Sherri being a cool cat.  :)

They did a lot of walking.

Who would not want a giant Hershey kiss.

Taking the tour at the World Trade Center site.

I think it is important to remember.

Seeing some the items that were pulled from the site.

The new tower.

Ground Zero.

Trying to hale a taxi.  :)

Taking a ride at the toy store.

These are some cool kids.

A bike tour of Central Park.

This was a great way for them to go.

This was the first time that Jamie had done this tour and they really enjoyed it.

Stefan and his bike.  :)

Jamie's favorite place to hang out.  LOL  The airport.

They had a lay over in Ottawa so they decided to stay for a few days.

They did some touring

This was their sweet ride.

Stefan enjoying some of the art work.

Touring around Ottawa.

Touring Parliament Building.

What a beautiful day.

Stefan can now say he has been here.  LOL

Spring is such a beautiful time. The tulips are amazing.

They managed to squeeze a lot into a couple of days.

More of the Parliament buildings.

That is one large chair.

They then when to Cornwall Ontario which is where Jamie lived while he was in training to be an Air Traffic Controller.

Jamie lived in residence while Darien and I lived with a family in town.  We would see other on Saturday to help him study and Sunday at church.  It was a hard time but so worth it in the long run.

We spent a lot of time on those grassy fields studying while Darien would crawl around.

The St. Lawrence Sea Way.

Not very clean but a great place to throw some rocks.

We met a great family there.  It has now been over 14 since we lived there but we still keep in contact.  They have since had two more children and we have had three.

But all the kids get along great.  Jamie and Stefan had a wonderful trip.  So many more memories.
