Algonquin Trip

Mike and I spent this last weekend at Algonquin Park for some much needed couple time. It's been a long time since we had a whole weekend away by ourselves...it was nice! We did some hiking and some canoeing. It was a tad chilly but not uncomfortable and of course having a heated trailer makes all the difference.

I am not overjoyed with the photos I ended up with this time...my camera is in desperate need of some service...I would actually love to upgrade to a new Cannon but we will see about that.

Here are the little pieces of Algonquin Park that I captured this weekend...we plan to go next weekend as well for Thanksgiving so stay tuned for more photos.




We were also lucky enough to see another moose...a buck! Sadly he retreated to the woods before I was able to photograph him...oh well, ya can't win 'em all!

Busy Busy Busy!

Life gets so crazy so quickly sometimes and all of a sudden you find there's no time for anything.
Blogging has taken a back seat to all of the other things that have been going on but I thought I'd just pop in to give a quick update on life in my little world...

- I now have a job...I clean houses with my friend Rochelle. I really enjoy it and it gives me spending money. It's physically tiring but it feels good to be working again.

- Bailey has just begun third grade. I can't believe it! She is growing up too fast and if anyone knows how to freeze time so I can keep things just the way they are right now...that would be great. I would gladly use some of my new income to pay you for such a service. Eight year old's are just about perfect!
Here are some photos from her first day of school...







- We went to Arrowhead again at the beginning of September. It was beautiful as always and we all had a wonderful weekend.
Of course there were plenty of opportunities for picture taking...















- Mike and I are going to take a well deserved "Mommy and Daddy weekend" to Algonquin Park in October...can't wait for that! The colours should be amazing and the local wildlife will hopefully make themselves available for some photos.

Well that about covers the big stuff. Hopefully soon I'll have some new scrapbook pages to show off. See you soon =D.
