Day 16 - Paige and The Old Hat

Paige

Day 15 - Twilight Fun

A couple of the girls at work and I were having fun taking pictures of a shiney red apple that was sitting there.  I just couldn't resist this picture! ;)

Day 14 - Canadian Skating Championship

I got to go to the Canadian Skating Championships, compulsory dance at the JLC tonight with work.  What an opportunity to see future Olympic Skaters!

I'm sorry that these are great quality, I wasn't allowed my Canon camera in the JLC so had to use my tiny Sony Cybershot 4.1 !!!  I was just happy to get some kind of picture to remember this by.

Unfortunately I don't remember all of their names.  Maybe some of you skate fans can tell me. ;)

These last 3 are Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir.  They are from the London area and were FANTASTIC!  They were definately favourites tonight and placed 1st place in this competition.  How cool is THAT!

Day 13 - Who Am I and Where did my tooth go?

Haley had to do a bit of research for her Sparks tonight.  She needed to find out information about the countries her family is from and present it to the group.  (food was encouraged) 

Sooo.... For the German side... here is the history of our name with our family crest.

And for the English side... SCONES and JAM!!!  (made from scratch I might add!  My first time make them EVER even thought I cooked them a little long and they were "crispy" on the bottom)

And this was the result of the "crispy" scones.  LOL  Haley's front tooth FINALLY fell out after eating her scone.  The other one is loose too and I'm sure will go soon too.  Boy will she look funny!  LOL

Day 12 - What am I??

I did a fun game with the girls at work tonight.  I went around this afternoon and took pictures of things around the residence.  They had to run around and guess what they were.  So... even though you may not be able to know what some of the things are... I thought I would share my macro shots for the day.

LOL... this one I found humourous!  What am I??

Day 11 - Haley tries out Skating!

Ok... so I'm cheating a bit today. ;)  I didn't ACTUALLY take todays pictures.  Gary (grandpa) got handed the camera as they were leaving for Haley's first skating experience today to snap a couple pics since I wouldn't be there.  I think he did a GREAT job and Haley LOVED skating. 

Thanks Gary!!!  We couldn't do this without you!

Day 10 - Sparkles, Birthdays and Kisses

Haley was commenting this morning on how the snow is sparkling today since it was so sunny.  I thought that was such a cool thing for her to notice.  She wanted me to take a photo of it for my blog today and although I thought it a GREAT idea, it turned out to be difficult to capture.  I was taking this photo out my in-laws back door so I didn't set up the shot well.  It is the best I could do to capture the sparkles today though.

So, we were at my inlaws' to celebrate my birthday (again) and had a lovely brunch.  Nancy (my mother in law) was appauled I was taking this picture of her table as she said it wasn't her finest. ;)

And finally... my favourite shot of the day. ;)  Gary (father in law and Haley's current "babysitter") came downstairs and this was the greeting between the two.
