Casper

Dog Day -1

Thanksgiving in Ottawa

Beautiful weather.
Went to the Canadian War Museum on Saturday. Drove around and visited the outdoor exhibits at the Canadian Science and Technology Museum on Sunday before dinner -- turkey and all the fixin's!!

The new van worked well, but we realized we were not given an owner's manual. There were a few things we could not figure out. Brother-in-law Gord gave us an overview as they own a 2002 Odyssey. Seems the light is burned out behind the clock and that is why we could not see it at night :)

Emma goes to Camp Brebeuf

Emma spent 3 days and 2 nights at Camp Brebeuf with her class as part of their preparation for Confirmation. She had a good time -- canoeing, archery, rope climbing, rock climbing -- despite doing it all in the cold rain.
She did not have time to take photos.

Emma and Andrew both make "Red" level of house league hockey

We found out last week that Andrew had been picked up by a "red" house league hockey team. We expected him to be and were surprised he had not been drafted originally. On his team is the son of Stu Grimson (for those not old enough or hockey savvy enough look here)

We found out today Emma also made "red" level in the girls hockey. This was not as expected, but she worked really hard on her skating, shooting and conditioning.

The reward for both is a new composite stick. Hockey can get expensive :)

Application Sent

I sent in our application today.

Lions Foundation of Canada

Foster Puppy Program

Don't know yet the outcome, but we may have a puppy by the end of the month. And this from the person who swore "NO DOGS - EVER". Never say Never.

Soccer Champions

Emma's soccer team (Pizza Pizza U13 A) this year won both their league championship and the playoffs. Two trophies this year.
