The Perfect Picture that Wasn`t

Here is where Alec-gator drew the line on pumpkin farm photos. :-(

Montreal 2011

Alec took most of the pictures in Montreal last Fall, but here is one he is actually in!

Hockey

This picture marks the first time we got it all on!

Apple Picking in September

As you can see, the usual suspects were involved. Later that same day, an apple pie was also enjoyed by all pictured.

Alec`s First Day of Kindergarten!

Enough said!

Yo Yo Boo Boo

Last summer, Alec and I packed up his swim trunks, marshmallows and three of our best friends (one of whom was another Mom, luckily) and headed to the southern Ontario mecca of camping - Yogi Bear`s Jellystone Park in Niagara Falls, Ontario. A good time was had by all, and we might just have another round of that up our sleeves for summer 2012.

One Other Day Last Summer

Alec put on a red shirt and got totally soaked! If you read this blog, you will know that this is an annual occurance.

5.

Well, you only turn 5 years old once so the fact that about 7 months have passed without me posting the pictures won`t stop me from doing so now. :-) July 1st of 2011 was a great day! Alec very much enjoyed his big day (and the sweet treats that went with it, pictured above) and after a party that was packed (quite literally packed) with buddies and fun, we set sail for our first week of adventuring aboard Cataque. You know how it is, you turn 5, and your mother sends you off to sea...

One Day Last Summer ...

Last summer, Alec got into the habit of listening to my i-pod on the way to his summer camp (which was a great summer camp, by the way - complete with a secret hideout, a girlfriend and buddies so tight that they would try to hide Alec when we came to get him so he didn`t have to leave) on the day the picture above was taken he temporarily removed his earphones to ask - ``it would be so cool if the whole world could hear my ear-tunes``. That was a great moment.
