Ham Comes From Pigs!

Words by Ethan the other day:

We were having ham for dinner and Ethan asked what type of animal ham comes from as he was totally pigging out on the ham (no pun intended!). I answered that ham comes from pigs and Ethan quickly answered that "I'm sure glad this pig is dead", so he can enjoy ham! (His kindergarten class had a field trip to a butcher recently!)

It's Time for the Tooth Fairy!

Ethan lost his first tooth (41) on Thursday morning (April 3, 2008). It was driving him CRAZY and after I loosened it a little, he was able to pull it out! Mini wheats taste so much better when you don't have a tooth flapping around in your mouth! He put the tooth under his pillow that night and the tooth fairy brought him a toonie and a loonie! Beats the 25 cents we used to get!

Spring. Dare I Say the "S" Word???

We had Easter Sunday BBQ dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's house and these are 5 of the cousins after hunting for chocolate!

The crocuses (croci??) weren't thrilled with the dump of the white stuff!

The kids and Everest, however, had a fun, snowy play day!


The previous 2 pictures were just taken yesterday and are showing that yes, spring is winning out over winter! FINALLY!

First Baby Pictures

I had my first ultrasound on February 19th and this is what we saw! Just one baby that is growing well! Who do you think it looks like? Sorry, we know it's a baby, but not what kind, we'll all have to wait for the surprise at the end!

Fun At Big White






I just put together a bunch of pictures so we can show you all of the fun things to do at Big White Ski Resort! The guys dug out a snow cave literally right outside our back door, and we even got Joel inside for a minute!! Mom and dad's cheese fondue was enjoyed by all after a day outside!
Tubing was a big hit for everyone, Ethan and Maren LOVED it! We also went sliding, x-country skiing, walking,skating, skiing, snowboarding and just played in the snow!

Happy 6th Birthday Big E!!

We had a family party on Ethan's actual birthday, January 8th, and Ethan got a new bike!

Ethan's friend party was the following Saturday at Cedars. We played games, watched Veggie Tales, had hot dogs, ate birthday cake, and finally a scavenger hunt for goodie bags! Crazy, exhausting (for mom) fun!!
