clouds

Beautiful sunny day, then this came through. The storm only lasted about an hour then the sun was back out.


the last frame in the sequence is blurry because the camera was getting soaked so I grabbed it and the tripod before the shutter closed.

Toronto at night

Awhile back I had to work at night, so I made the most of it by taking my camera along. After finishing up work I wen't out walking the streets of Toronto to take photos of the city at night. (about 3am)

Roy Thompson Hall

Nathan Philip Square and Toronto City Hall (if you look closely you'll see Ursa Major just above the city hall building)

on the corner of York and Adelaide

I very much enjoyed my walk and would do it again in a second.

is it any wonder

he ends up with dirt in his hair

visiting the Bassetts

Here are some pics of our trip up north to visit the Bassetts. Okay so they are only an hour up the highway but they are still further north then us so it counts as a visit up north. Any how, we had be slackers and hadn't visited the Bassetts in a long time so we called them up and asked if we could spend the day with them. They reluctantly accepted our offer. :)

Once we had arrive we decided to head out to the apple blossom festival.

where Max got a new hat

and some blue sugar.

Once we got back, Ev wanted to play in the grass in the huge backyard

Max running and gunning

Michaila asked me to take a photo of her so here it is

Because this post has a lot of Max pics I thought I throw this one of Evelyn in to balance it out a bit.

The photo was taken from the outside looking in. Ev and Carrie were looking out the window and Ev started pressing her face against the window.

parks and recreation

went searching for more parks to play at and found a couple.

at the first park either nobody can read the sign or nobody cares what it says

actually the rest of the park wasn't bad at all.

Ev even got a chance to go on the spring animal all by herself, sort of. Carrie just stepped out of the frame so I could get this shot.

tried to get Max to spell his name. in the shot he is supposed to be trying to trace his name.

at this next park Max and Carrie were off playing on the playground so Evelyn and I took a stroll through the grass. As we pushed through nearly foot tall grass I decided to take her out of the stroller and let her play.

Evelyn picking a dandelion.

and Ev crawling though the tall grass.

crash in the living room

If Ev is doing something Max wants to do it. So when Ev was playing on the train, naturally Max wanted to get on there with her,


and everything was going fine…

until they crashed.

A few tears and a few kisses and Ev was all better and back on the train. Max however was told he needed to play with something else.

new place and a new post

well readers, what do you think of the new place? we just moved in. We are pretty happy with it and think it fits our family, hope you enjoy reading about our life here. don't forget to bookmark the page or better yet subscribe to the rss feed and never miss an update.

on with the post

Max really loves his trains. We had to buy one that was just for Ev because he wasn't sharing very well.

here is the boy playing with his beloved trains

next up we have a photo of Ev while we were out for a walk

and here is Max showing that he really does love his little sister
