Steveston Park

Learning how to sync the blog to my Flickr account. So very cool and now that I know how to do this it should be easy for me to update regularly... that is the theory right?

A fantastic Easter weekend flew by with a great visit with our friends Neil and Kaoko and their 2 beautiful girls Kinua and Seia. Hard to believe that the 7 year old 'big kid' I was making soup with was the baby I had the honour to see born all those years ago.

Across Canada adventure!

After several mishaps (forgotten credit card, lost drivers license) Ronin has arrived safely in Ontario. A few days of not eating and moping around has passed and it looks like he is starting to settle into his new digs with Gran and Granpa and is enjoying his daily walks in the massive dog park nearby.

Easter Eggs

Eggs, eggs, eggs! We had a blast making easter eggs yesterday. We used beets for red, blueberries for blue (turned out more purple than blue!) and tumeric for yellow. Rubber bands and yellow and white crayons created the patterns. Of course there had to be one with in honour of Spiderman :)

Here we go!

In the words of the Chemical Brothers "here we go!" The house is starting to really look like we are moving now. Books, boxes, toys, papers...little piles stacking up all in each room. It is all well on its way. We have begun to say our 'farewells' (I don't like to say goodbye) and begin the process of ensuring we stay connected and in contact with those around us.

Thus one of the reasons for this blog. Hopefully will be the first of many posts to come (nudge me if I get slack). I will endeavor to keep everyone updated on our adventures in travel, life and homeschooling and although the next couple weeks may be sparse I will do my best to update on a weekly basis.

I have been summoned by his highness and her majesty to begin the Easter egg dyeing process.... photos and post to come soon.
