Winter is Over!

Let the tan begin! Today is a wonderfully warm day. So nice, in fact, that I decided to expose my legs to the sun for the first time since our long Canadian winter began. I think the glow from my legs blinded an old couple driving by the house.

Its great to be Canadian.

Fire


Our campus is pretty quiet as most of the students have gone home for the Easter long weekend. Last night the four guys who stayed came to our place to join us around our little fire. We had marshmallows, chocolate chip cookies and hot chocolate. It was a bit cool, but we are looking forward to many more nights around the fire this summer.

Fiddling


Ellie enjoys listening to her mom play her fiddle.


Naomi was preparing for teaching a violin lesson and Ellie decided to test her mom’s ability to read music during an Elliequake as she shakes the music stand.

Birthdays are made of..

STEAK! Naomi spoiled me for supper with a steak, stuffed baked potatoes (potatoes that are baked, then the contents scooped out, mashed and mixed with cheese and put back in the potato skin!), and a ceasar salad. It was even a quiet meal with just me and my wonderful wife as she had dropped Ellie off at a friends house for a few hours.

Oh yeah.. I had some cards and presents too. Yup, another April 10th, another birthday. Life is good. TJ
