Many things have happened since we last blogged, but the most exciting part was having Meme and Pepere vist us last weekend.

This weekend Guy finally bought a new barbecue. A serious barbecue. This following a great deal of hemming and hawing and flicking rusty metal shavings off of our burgers, due to the disintegrating Thermos model we hung onto for 6 years. While Alice is not so big on steak and ribs, she gets to play with the box. And what a huge box it is! Guy cut a door and a couple of windows into it. Next we filled it with her doll bed, a chair, some books and a teaset . She was set for an entire day of fun!

Alice's first painted face. A lovely ladybug! It's a little tough to see, but here she is offering up the wooden spoon that she painted me for mother's day. So crafty! A visit with Gran and Grandad (on their way to have a look at the chickens) A mother's day bike ride and picnic in the park!

What better way to spend a Monday evening than to hang out in the street with friends. Playing hockey and driving fast cars!

Last weekend, after recovering from a nasty bout of gastro (you wanted to know...) we went to Chapters for a little book browsing. Lucky Alice had received a wonderful gift card from Lynn and Paul, and so she got to treat herself to a pile of new books. And what great timing, since she has just started to pronounce the work book (with strong emphasis on the k), instead of boot. She'll be writing haikus any day now.
