So I've been letting the dogs come into the bathroom while I shower because i feel guilty that they will be crated for too long....

Today, when i hopped out of the shower, Jovi was chewing away on a squeaky toy and Rocko had been using Jovi as a headrest!

I bribed them to stay put while I ran for the camera:)

Rocko found a baseball at the park yesterday and in chasing it around got totally covered in mud!  He was in his glory!

He didn't love getting hosed down afterwards though:)

It's really hard to take pictures of fireworks!

Happy Victoria Day!

Brotherly love on Jovi's first trip to the forest!

Everyone is having fun!

Saturday May 21, 2011

Wow it was hot today!

Must...drink...water!!!

Hot weather + black dog = very long tongue

Friday night entertainment!

Rocko and Jovi wrestling. Jim has the video footage if you need a good laugh.

Beautiful night for sitting out with a corona and some nachos.

Way to go Jovi!

He did a great job at his first puppy class tonight!

He did all of the things that we asked him to do and he got along well with all the other puppies.

Here's a picture of my Action Research Team project.  We presented our work from this year on how technology influences student engagement and thus improves student achievement.

I keep getting a server error.

You don't get to see my spring flower pictures tonight!

Everything is blooming on the escarpment, violets and trillium.

I'll post it tomorrow.

They are playing tug with a tiny little Santa hat.

I'm not sure why, but I think that it must be Rocko's favourite toy and by default, Jovi's favourite too.

They are really great buddies.

Finally a picture of Jake!

He's got all his gear on and this is the night before his dirt bike debut.

He went into his first official race on Sunday.

It lasted two and a half hours and was quite grueling.

Still waiting on the results...

I honestly could not pick my picture today!

I had such an awesome morning with my parents today that I couldn't
narrow it down to one or two photos.  We had a leisurely breakfast and then took the dogs for a walk on the escarpment at kinsmen park.  It was so beautiful with the trilliums and other flowers blooming that we kept snapping photos.
  The dogs enjoyed the freedom and the muck, while we enjoyed
 the fresh air and the connection with nature and beautiful rock
 formations on the escarpment.

Loved our precious time together
mom and dad.

Love you,

chrissy

Happy Mother's Day weekend!

Such a natural.

Love you Gramma.

 Something smells like dinner!

He looks so serious when I make him wait for his dinner! 

Just chilling with my bud!  By the way, We're lovin the sunshine!

Wednesday May 4, 2011

Finally a sunny day!

I guess it's water season again.  I avoided the pond at the beginning of our walk but Rocko found this widened part of the river on our trek back.

Welcome back, wet dog smell!

When is it going to stop raining?

We're getting a little bored here!

Monday May 2, 2011

It's hard to believe that my Rachie is already going to graduate this year!

Time flies by, so remember to make the most of it.

Love you, Rachel!

Our new bed was delivered today!

Thanks Moey for finding us these awesome new sheets and duvet set!

Sweet dreams tonight for sure!

Friday April 29, 2011

Waiting for Jim!

After many delays, he finally arrived!

He outwaited the wind and rain and even the landing of Air Force One.

It's good to have you home!



Thursday April 28, 2011

Thanks Mom!

For the puppy sitting and the help at school and at home.

It's been fun having you here again.

Come back for a rainy walk or volleyball party anytime!

Love you!

What started out as just a drizzle turned into a month's worth of rain!

We headed out with the puppies for a nice walk in 19 degree weather and got dumped on with a rain shower.  Mom and I were laughing, Rocko didn't really notice the rain and Jovi cried the whole way!  Jovi didn't really know what was going on, just that he wanted it to stop!  Once we got home he rolled around like he was on fire!

In the picture below, he's glaring at me saying, "You did this to me!"



Tuesday April 26, 2011

Just another ordinary miracle, soul sisters!

Loved it!

Thanks

Awesome Easter weekend with the boys!

Hope everyone had a great weekend too.

This picture was taken yesterday at Balls Falls Conservation Area in Vineland, Ontario.

We all needed a rest today after a fun filled Easter.

Sunday April 24, 2011

Happy Easter Everyone!

This is Mom and Dad and I after church.

We have our blessed basket of Easter food (Ham, Paska, eggs, kielbasa, cheese and chocolate) ready to take home for our lunch.

Playtime at the Hamm cottage!

Jovi and Dash had a great time wrestling today.

Dashie even smiled for this picture.

Ducky cupcakes!

Lots of fun messing up Cawi's kitchen today!



Thursday April 21, 2011

This is why we feel run off our feet!

Jovi is curious about everything!

We can't leave him for a minute or he's into something.

Here he's helping mommy take out the garbage.

Wednesday April 20, 2011

Congratulations Laurie and Denis on your new little bundle of joy!

Hunter is in for a real treat with you as his parents!

He looks very huggable!

He was born on my friend Cathy Wozny's birthday!

Lots of reasons to celebrate!

LOVE

Something happened to Jovi overnight!

Look at those legs...he is getting so big already.

And by the way, this guy has attitude too.  He's not afraid of being tossed around a bit in the name of a good play session.

Monday April 18, 2011



Rocko seems to be smiling!
He actually poses for pictures now that
Jovi is getting the spotlight!


 

Today we noticed how big Jovi is getting!

Mom even emailed me to say how she notices the difference.

It's all in the legs.  I really think he will be bigger than Rocko before long!

Sunday April 17, 2011





Jovi photographs well in the snow!

Rocko and Jovi are playing with what is left of a sheep toy that they love in an unexpected snowy day.

Here Jovi is investigating his first snowball.



Saturday April 16, 2011

I'm pretty sure he's sticking his tongue out at us in this picture!



Friday April 15, 2011

The annual teacher volleyball tournament was held tonight!

I'm so upset that I forgot to take my team picture.  Or any picture at all!

We had fun playing together but didn't advance to the finals...

next year?

Award winning author, Shane Peacock!

I was at the Newmarket Public Library today with our grade six students.

He taught us to write about the things that we're really "into".

Jovi's First Bath!!

He still looks pretty happy here...

 But he was thoroughly, unimpressed by the end of it all!
