Luke's First Tooth




On Saturday, Luke's first tooth popped through, much to everyone's relief. He hasn't enjoyed the teething process and hopefully it will go smoother from here.

Aaron and Luke


Making Jam


I have fallen in love with making Jam. I never knew that it was so easy and so satisfying. I have so far made Strawberry Kiwi, Rhubarb and Blackberry Jam. Here is a photo of the first 2. I think I may try canning some fruit next.

Centennial Beach


A couple of weeks ago, we joined Aarons parents for supper and then headed to the beach for a bit. It was a beautiful night and the perfect way to end the day.

A Day At Play or was that Work?


While we were in Colorado we visited the Denver Childrens Museum. WOW! It was an amazing place and Katie had a blast. They had a fire truck area, Preschool area (too big to begin to explain), Vets office, Workshop, Construction Zone, Ant hole/Nature Area, Grocery Store, Art Zone, and so so much more. With Katie not quite 3, she would have been happy in even just one room for hours, but as you can see she played in several. Her favorite would have been the grocery shopping. This is rather ironic since she fights me everytime I try to take her for real. They even had an area for infants with Lily Pads to lay Luke on and mobiles above. If you ever go to Denver this is a must for those of you with kids. The whole time we were there we were wishing we could have shared it with so many of you.

Great Grandma Oster


A while ago I posted a picture of Luke with 3 of his Great Grandparents. Last week were in Colorado visiting family and I finally was able to get a photo of Luke and Katie with Aarons grandma.

A Sunday Morning Run


Almost 2 weeks ago, Carolyne and I did a 5km race here in Delta. It was a very last minute thing, and a small race but we had a lot of fun, and even got a medal out of the deal. We finished in 30:11. Next up, the Victoria half marathon in October.
