Goodbye Winnipeg :(

Saying goodbye to Grandma and Grandpa after a 3 night sleepover.

One last playdate with Tiano.

Emmitt and Charlie

Cole and Lucy

Having a jump on the trampoline.

One last hug goodbye.

Charlie had a fun morning with Matthew and Thor.

Lucy spent that morning at the playground with Ivy and Maria.

Saying goodbye to Maria. Lucy is really going to miss her favourite teacher.

Goodbye to the best babysitters!

Big hugs for Shanlyn and Devienne.

Lucy misses them already and wants them to move to Denver too.

Here comes the moving truck...

Lucy's room, all boxed up.

Chloe's room.

Our room, looking bare.

And Charlie's room looking cleaner than ever!

Happy Canada Day!

Our last Canada Day in Canada for awhile...

We spent the day enjoying the hot weather at the Dakota Splash park followed by a BBQ.

Final Days in Winnipeg

Lucy discovering Daddy's big boots.

All three kids find a pair of Daddy's footwear.

We took one last trip to Assiniboine Park Zoo and discovered the Butterfly Garden that we'd never seen before.

It wasn't overflowing with butterflies but we found a few monarchs.

I think the butterfly bench was a bigger highlight for the kids...

Happy Birthday Charlie

June 22 - Charlie already had his big party with his friends, but he had to wait til his actual birthday to get his gift from Mom and Dad.

Lucy, trying to get to the present while Charlie reads his card.

Finding out that he gets to pick out a skateboard when we get to Denver.

A movie for the road trip.

Birthday dessert after his final soccer game.

Another birthday cake at Grandma and Grandpa's for the two birthday boys.

Happy Father's Day, Phil!

Happy Father's Day to the best Dad in the world!

Phil asked Lucy who her favourite Dad was. I tried to get him by whispering to her "Grandpa" but she didn't bite and replied with exactly what Daddy wanted to hear. Then Charlie asked her who her favourite Mom was and guess what she said? Grandma. Little trouble maker...

And another one from Lucy. Today, we went out to lunch and she saw two men walk in. She greeted them with a "Hi Mens!" Followed by, "Are you strangers?"

Check out Chloe's expression. She sure doesn't like Charlie invading her personal space...

Happy Birthday Charlie!!!

With his cake before the party.

Charlie wanted a Hawaiian themed party this year so he picked a Volcano cake, Pool Party at the base gym, followed by pizza and a movie in the theatre.
