Catley Family Visit

After several years we were finally able to convince the Catleys to come visit us for a change instead of us always dropping in on them.
While the women enjoyed an afternoon at the spa Trent & I took the kids to the local armouries where we celebrated the grand opening of their museum.

The kids didn't enjoy it as much as Trent & I, until they found out they were serving hamburgers and hot dogs.

We celebrated Tracy's 39th birthday on Saturday.

We always have a good time when we get together!

I took Trent and the kids for a "snake walk" not expecting to find anything since winter is almost here. Trent has a phobia which I'm trying to help him with. As luck would have it I found a bull snake! You can see it there in the grass at the kid's feet.

Trent did pretty good, even though the snake was dead, he said he would like to come back and see a rattle snake sometime, I'm guessing he meant a live one!?!?!?

Football Playoffs

Football Playoffs were last week.

After a terrible spanking (53-19) in their last regular season game against the Ti-Cats they came around in their one and only playoff game for the bronze medal.

It was a beautiful night at the Methanex Bowl as they faced the Argonauts.

It was a pretty even matched game, thanks to the Argo's only have 1 extra player and the Riders having on Offensive and a Defensive line, for once. Amazingly they played hard the whole game and managed to win with only one touchdown, their defense played awesome and actually tackled and hit guys like they never did all season.

For some reason I didn't get any photos of Kirby playing Volleyball, they didn't do so well losing out in the end. However she did still have team spirit as she dressed up for their spirit day!

Home Sweet Home


Someone's happy that Jeff moved home!!!
Actually a bunch of people are, in fact there isn't anyone that's not happy that I moved home!

After over two years of living out of a suitcase it was nice to finally unpack it. It was a different story when it came to storing the trailer, I hadn't had to worry about winterizing it before.

Happy Halloween!
