Grade 1.

Today was our first day of grade 1. It started out great till it was time to go to school, then we couldn't find shoes and keys. We held it together and we made it on time I would have like a little more time to spend with her this morning at the school but what can you do. I forgot that during summer vacation she kept Eastynn well entertained Eastynn is very bored. I on the other hand have got so much done in such a little amount of time.

That's all for now

Swimming Lessons

So swimming is finished a both girls passed.

Taylor did good, once in awhile she had issues listening. Mostly she had troubles with her goggles. She doesn't like them to suction to her eye then she would get water in her goggles a no win situation. She does really well on her back and is doing a little bit better on her tummy now.


Eastynn well what can I say about Eastynn she can easily do everything she is asked....if Eastynn wants too. She did great her first week, the second week was hard she didn't want to do anything on a couple days. We fought really hard to make her cooperate but she just wouldn't. The instructor said its only cause of the first week that she passed.

Nonetheless she passed.

That's all for now

Swimming Lessons Begin

Today was the first day of swimming lessons.

Eastynn really surprised me, it was her first non parented class and she did amazing. She probably did the best of all the kids and considering her nature I was surprised she even got in the water. She impressed me the entire half hour.

Taylor also started lessons today she struggled a little more than Eastynn but that is to be expected with how much more advanced her class is. She will pull through though she is a determined little girl. She just needs to listen to her teacher....and grandma.....and mom and she will do just fine.

That's all for now

Weekend in Sask

We just got back from a great weekend in Sask.
We camped with the Troberts and the Thompson's. Taylor and Eastynn had a blast.
Taylor had a little birthday so did Justin (one of the Trobert boys).
Also Calvin and Brooklynn's little guy actually came before we left. When Luke was born he came the day after we left. Reid Came on Saturday and he even came down to the lake on Sunday to meet everyone before they left. We got to spend some good quality time with Luke and he wasn't as shy as usual so it was fun.

Taylor's 6th Birthday

I can't believe Taylor is 6.
She woke up in the morning and asked me how many more sleeps till my special day. I said none its today and said Happy birthday baby. She smiled so big.
We got out of bed came down stairs and made pancakes. After breakfast we went to Grandma Mellor's and she gave both girls a nice little dresses. Then Grandma bought us some little ceasers pizza and we came back to the house and ate it and Taylor got her big present which was a pool. All the girls went shopping while dad tried to set up the pool. We bought the rest of Taylor's school supplies and a cover for the pool. When we got home we decided it was in a bad place so all Fabian's work was for nothing. So we moved it all and started setting it up AGAIN. Taylor was being so impatient and I do not blame her at all. So we had supper and got back in the car and went shopping again. Taylor bought some new bathing suits with her gift card from Grandma Huber. Grandma Mellor also bought Taylor a pair of roller blades that convert to ice skates, we also got Eastynn a pair. The girls absolutely love the skates have been skating on the carpet all dad I think good practice for now.
That's all for now
