Four Loons travelling together on the lake! Awesome! 

We spent a wonderful weekend at the cottage. The sunrise around the point was beautiful. The water was so warm, you can almost see the steam on the lake in this picture. 

Erin Stikes Again!

What do you get if you mix one part beautiful girl, one part caring spirit, one part smartie-pants with two parts fun? EASY! You get Erin Merry. Have I told my Internet readers how much I love her today? Well, if not here it is: I love her! She surprised me with flowers today. She's soooooooooo sweet!

Fighting like Cats and Dogs!

Jack and Stirling love each other and they love to wrestle with each other 24 hours a days. WAIT... I'm obviously exagerating. There are times when they take breaks. Here's a photo of them during intermission (*grin*) 

My 10th Tea Party Concert!

The Tea Party never disapoint! They rolled into k-town and played a great show at Stages. It was fitting that it was Stages because that's where I first saw them in 1993 with Yvonne. 12 years ago! WOW! So, Julie and I went super-early to make sure we got front row and baby did we ever!!! WOW! Erin joined us a bit later and we had a great time. I got super loaded and had to leave my car downtown (hee hee). Here's to the next 10 Tea Party concerts! Jeff always love playing to the Crowd!!! 

Stuart looking intense!

Ok, he is SUPER CUTE!!!!!!!!! Both ears up! YEAH Jackie! 

My little boy is growing up so fast!

I came home from work today and both of Jackie's ears are standing up straight now. Oh my goodness he's growing up fast. (*haha*) We went to the vet for a well puppy physical and I was please to see that he weighs 1.7 kg (3.75 lbs). That's up from 2.8 lbs on June 20th! Wow he's getting big!!! HAHA!

Jackie loves grass!

Jackie is so small that he gets lost in the grass in the backyard. Too cute!  

One ear up! Cute! 

Jack is HERE!

Ok, so how cute is THIS!!! Meet Jack.... he's my new manly puppy dog! A 9-week old Papillon puppy. He's the ultra cutest thing I've seen in a long time. Robbers beware... he's likely to be a great guarddog too! hahaha! He currently weighs about 3 lbs and he's likely to max out around 7 or 8 lbs. If you want to see a bunch of pictures of what this breed looks like as an adult check out this link The breeder told us that the ears raise up at around the 14 week mark. Too cute!!!

Happy Canada Day in Ottawa

We headed up to Dickson's in Ottawa for a rocking good time on Canada Day. The drinks flowed, the food appeared (and I'm talking heavy duty food...two types of jerked chicken slow cooked on a charcoal BBQ and then pork souvlaki... we basically ate all day!!!), the people were great, and the fire works were amazing. We watching them from an abandonned railway bridge near the Lemieux Island Water Treatment Facility. I had never been there and it was really an adventure!

Thanks Dickson and Kristen for the hospitality!!!
