Preschool Picnic

Lily's end of year preschool picnic. They played, ate, did the limbo, sang YMCA and said goodbye for the summer. Lots of fun.

Camera-Shy Cousins

A photos shoot with 3 cousins: Lily, Josh & Joel. A Father's Day gift for Grandpa.

Summer Skiing!

May 30th. 26 degrees. Skiing in a T-shirt at Whistler. Doesn't get much better than that!
Oh yeah...and I ran into this guy on my way up the sea-to-sky highway.

Brisbane Blast

A tropical ending to our quick visit home, with a trip to Brisbane to see school-friend Michelle (http://www.annesley.sa.edu.au), and her beautiful kids: Thomas, Sarah & Oliver. (click to enlarge)

Wedding Wait

Hanging out in Warburton before & after the wedding. Including some pampering (Nana doing Lily's nails!), and a trip to Heallesville Sanctuary.

Warburton Wedding

A quick 2-week trip to Australia for Lily & I to attend David & Angela's wedding.
It was a beautiful ceremony, and a swingin' reception. So great to see family, including our new extended family! Lily was re-aquainted with cousins Ruby, Otis & Banjo....and met new cousin Caelin.

Kickin' Cones

Seymour Snow

Toboganning at Mt Seymour. Other than a challenging climb for a pre-schooler, and a bit of a bump on the nose after a tumble.....it was a ton of fun! (click to enlarge)

Once Apon a Time...

A Story by Lily Everett MacIntyre as dictated to her Grandmother:

I love you my little Princess. Will you come back after you get strawberries in your basket? Oh no Daddy, there's a fire, make a smoke alarm. Then the fire people came. We ran outside to the neighbours house to have a visit. Then she got her favourite cat because it was sick, and then she took it to the vet. She said to the vet, "my cat's sick". Then she named her cat 'Dance Everett MacIntyre Sing'. Then she danced and danced with her baby. She danced very quietly and she jumped from square to square on one foot, and then the other. She ran across the lake. She ran across the bridge before the Troll came. The Troll said, "who's that skipping over my bridge?". Then she said "help mother!" and she climbed up into the castle and got to her bedroom. The Troll followed her but didn't see her because of her mother's message. Then she popped up and threw the Troll under the bridge. "Move the ladder" she said to her mother, "before the Troll comes back"

Doorway Drama

A charming photo of Lily & I in our doorway, on a cold Saturday morning. This was taken during a photo shoot with Steve, who is putting together something for VTV's 10 year anniversary in September.

Christmas Chaos

Some pics of our Christmas. We had a big family Turkey dinner at Beth & Dave's on Christmas Eve, Win & Sharon (Jason's parents) over for brunch on Christmas Day...then their turn for some more Turkey that evening!

Downhill Debut

Cypress Mountain.....and Lily's very first day of skiing!!!!!!

Desert Doha

Last night...and an evening trip to the desert. Our driver (after stopping to let air out of the tyres) took us to a camp where we ran on the sand-dunes, rode a camel, ate shishkebabs & smoked sheesha. Daylight probably would have been better, but still a great way to spend the final night...before heading to the airport at 330am!
Also a photo of the Beach Volleyball (also a Canadian Crew), and the 'Wushu'.

Souq Shopping

If you need spices, or a falcon........
