Jackson, the newest addition!

John's niece Amy who lives in the basement has a new puppy. He's a Boston Terrier and what a doll!

Liam

I haven't been taking a lot of photos lately. My 70-300 lens isn't working properly and I have a ton of other excuses like shift work and so on. Anyhow John's grandsons were here for the weekend and here are a couple of shots of Liam that I like. John caught Liam asleep on the kitchen floor with his hand inside my shoe!

CN Tower

This shot was taken while in traffic on the Gardner one grey morning. I like the angle but it's always difficult to get a decent shot through the windshield!

Papa and Oma get visitors!

Today we spent the day being Papa and Oma, John's son in law Mike brought Liam and Owen down for a visit. We took the train up to Sheppard to see Papa driving his subway, we all had a great day!

Spring is Here!

Home Depot only gets a fixed amount of these picnic tables each year and they go like hot cakes. We managed to get 16 of them in the van! See craiglist for our ad!

Games Night

If you know my brother Sion you'll know he is a really fun guy. He and his partner Kelly started a family tradition about a month ago, he calls it "Games Night". We gather at someone's house and play a game. This night was at Trina's, and Sion and Kelly brought a game called Quelf. It is really a hoot, try it sometime!

Costa Rica Memories

Here are Matt, Vene, Zoe and Joellen at the Black Sheep Pub

John's grandson Liam

We drove up to Barrie tonight to take John's daughter Yohanna out for her birthday, here's a shot of her youngest son showing off his belly. The second shot was taken by the waitress!

John and Zoe Working on Straw Techniques

These shots were taken at the Gilded Iguana poolside bar in Nosara, Costa Rica. John claims he taught Zoe to drink with a straw!

Sunset at Playa Guiones

We spent the last ten days with my niece Joellen and her family in Nosara Costa Rica. What a little piece of heaven they are in. Joellen and Matt run the Gilded Iguana, a nice little oasis in the heat. This beach is about a 4 minute walk behind their home through the trees. More photos to follow.

John and the boys

We made the trek to Barrie yesterday to visit with John's daughter Yohanna and her family. Little Liam has chicken pox but he was a real trooper and we all had a great afternoon.
