Book Club~ Language of Flowers

Book Club Friday!

We read the language of Flowers and it was a really good book.

I liked how it did not romanticize foster care kids and make them out to be happy kids once someone loves them. 

I liked that she learned something that carried her through, Language of Flowers, and she was able to draw upon that and make a life for herself.

I like how people grow and lean and develop and become who they are through there on journey.

I like that she met really good people.

I liked a lot of things about the book.

I love my book club girls! Each one is special and fun, strong beautiful woman who are really true to themselves and value our time together.

I love wine. And rumless coke. And boobies, I love planning parties and weddings. I love sharing our lives, advise, stories. I love our tears and babies. I love our friendship and ourselves.

I love that we are a beautiful bunch of woman who celebrate our friendship once a month in the name of book club but really it is so much more!

The Princess is an old theatre in Edmonton that I loved going to as a kid, it had this amazing beautiful charm and I love going there.

Jakob's Rugby!

 Jakob started rugby with his school and he is a lifter guy and a pusher guy and a runner guy. Ok I know those are not terms used to describe rugby but he does a lot of things on his team. I know he is not the team hooker!

Here he is looking good in his wee shorts!

practicing something

Jake would not be Jake if he as not somewhat strange!

Tatyanah would not be Tatyanah if she was not being more strange!

It was pouring rain and so cold, Taty and I went to watch in the car!

Doing a whole lot of rugby here!

Some of the parents were really worried to see an ambulance parked at the rugby field, it was only Tim, watching Jake's game!

It is really cool to watch Jakob play, he is not totally sure hat he is doing but I can see he is really having fun and making friends. He is a good player too.

Biking

This weekend we did our first bike ride, over 15km and it was fun! It was also a lot of hard work.

Christine flipped head over heels on her bike, she was perfectly fine, it was classic and so cool, I wish I had the go-pro. 

Before that Roxane was super hot so she took off her coat, went to out it in her bag and she had no bag because it fell off somewhere along the way. So we turned around and went looking for it, which is when Christine bit it.

Which is actually a blessing in disguise( losing the bag, not the epic wipeout flip) because we ended up going backwards which meant we did not have horrid hills at the end of the ride!

And Roxane found her bag, right at the beginning of the ride!

Tree Trimming

Amanda set off to trim our front blue spruce tree!

It was never trimmed in it's entire life and here she is hacking away!

Lots gone and does it ever look great!

Lots of branches to take to recycling.

We worked really hard on the yards this weekend and it looks really good!
