Biking Pro

Today was one of those proud mommy days.  We tried a few times last year to get Stefan riding a two wheeler with no training wheels and it didn't go so well.  So we decided to wait a little longer.  Well as soon as the snow was off the road this year he was ready to give it a try and it didn't take him long to get the hang of it. 

All it took was one push from me and he was off. I was so happy and excited for him.

My baby isn't so small and more and it growing up way to fast which means that a.  I am getting older and b.  all my boys are growing up way too fast.  LOL

Once he was going there was no stopping him.  He had to call everyone and tell them he was so excited.

It is a little bitter sweet when you see how quickly they are all growing up.  But I am so happy for him.  Love you.

Flying High

As I am sure everyone know, Jamie loves to fly.  So when a pilot friends calls up and overs to take you in a business jet, really who could say no.  Not Jamie that is for sure.  LOL

The boys are looking good for the ride because it happened to be right after church.  The pilot and other passenger were really impressed with how good they looked.

The controls.  Only Darien and Jamie would take a picture like this.

Stefan enjoying his ride.

Landing in Calgary.

The boys had to have their picture taken in the airport washroom because they thought it was so "fancy".  LOL

Rylan was really excited to be able to sit up front.

Stefan started to get pretty tired.

Rylan taking control.

And then he was out.  They had a really great time.  What a great opportunity for them.

So So Funny

So this year was grade 8 graduation for Darien.  Meaning that next year he will be starting high school.  This is a very exciting time for him and his friends so the school put together a slide show of them when they were little and them in the same pose now.  Of course Darien had to choose this picture.  LOL

And this is the now.  LOL  I love that this boy has such a sense of humor.  LOL

Lacrosse Fun

Lacrosse Season Starts

Stefan was so excited this year, because it was his turn to play during the half time show for the Edmonton Rush.  He is there up front for the opening ceremonies.

And here he is playing :)

He is the one with the which jersey and the red stick.  He had so much fun and even managed to score a couple of goals.  He loves lacrosse.

Cool Dude

The boys always enjoy seeing what they can do to Mr. K

This is one very cool dude with some shades.  LOL

Cute baby Alert!!!

Happy Easter

It was so nice to be home in BC for Easter this year.  One very good reason was the lack of snow.  LOL  But really just being able to be with family was so great.  The Easter Bunny hard at work. ;)

Let the hunt begin.  LOL

We were very rustic this year with no buckets.  They were actually using the hoods on their sweaters to collect the eggs.  LOL

Keagan managed to find a basket.

Then it was time to try and fly some kites.  That didn't last long before they were off and playing at the park.

They never get tired of playing at the park.  Here Uncle David is helping one of the boys that got stuck.  LOL

You would think that he would look happier playing at the park but alas.  You never know what is going on in his little head.

Swinging fun.  The was a great way to spend spring break.  We sure missed Darien but he had a great time on his trip too.

Knotts Berry Farm

So today we spent the day at Knotts Berry Farm.  I have never been before so I was really looking forward to it.

Everyone came along and we were all really excited for the rides.  LOL  Not really.  I am not really a ride person and sadly since Jamie's accident his body can only handle so many.

Starting with the bumper cars is always a great way to start.  We got to the park just as it was opening and so there was hardly any lines for the rides which was great.

I must be honest.  When Stefan went on his first roller coaster I was pretty freaked out.

Stefan and Rylan wanted to try every single ride.  The rest of us were a little bit more low key.

We even managed to get the Grandma's on one roller coaster.  LOL  As you can see they are holding on tight and holding onto the small children.  LOL  So much fun.

Just in case you were wondering were we went.  LOL  We have a our pictures with the sign.  LOL

Even Mr. K had to get in on the action.

This was a crowd pleaser.  Just the right speed for the Grandma's.  LOL

They waited a long time to be able to be on the top.

Mr. K and I going for a ride on the train.  Just our speed. ;)

Such a funny boy.

This was a really cute ride and the last one the went on for the day.

As you can see from Stefan's expression.  You actually had to pump it to make it go.  LOL  He was in it to win it. LOL

Our little sausages.

I bet you had no idea Marylin Munro was so big.  We had a really great time in Palm Springs.  I enjoyed Knotts Berry Farm but been there done that now.  ;)
