A Lazy Mommy Blogger …
Mostly because, we’re too busy enjoying summer.

In the heart of Edmonton (Alberta’s capital) is our Legislative Buildings. There are about 2 city blocks of fountains in front of them (this is about 1/4 of them). Pretty eh?

Up here where the summers are short. We don’t just look at our fountains, we get right in. It’s encouraged … take advantage of the weather while you can.

There are waterfalls and steps to climb. I don’t know about your kids, but mine LOVE water. If there’s water they’re in it.

There are about 30 of these particular mini-fountains, of course these three … all want in at the same time.

Everything is better with a friend. This is Sam’ and his buddy Ryan.

It wouldn’t be a summer day at the park without a picnic.
What are you doing to pass the summer? I want to know … blog about it … comment about it.

A few pictures from Mother’s Day!

This one I call – ‘Tread Softly and Carry a Big Stick’.
Sam doesn’t quite have the same diplomacy policy as his sister.

I call this one – ‘Wee Warrior’. Strangely enough that is a pelvis from a horse skeleton around his neck, and a rib in his hand. While the girls were happy to peer at the bones and nudge them with their feet; Sam felt a need to wear them. He asked if he could, “wear them to school”. “YA Right SAM!” He’s not quite as evolved as I’d hoped.
I spent Mother’s Day at ‘my’ Grandma’s farm, with my parents, aunt and uncles. After a great dinner, we all took a walk. It was a chilly spring day. It won’t be long now until summer (see the buds just coming out on the trees). I took a whole slew of pictures. Speaking of slough(s) …

This shot of the slough and the tree I call – ‘Still Water’. I agree I’m not that creative … can you think of a better name?
Finally, my favourite …

A family portrait. I can’t think of a name for this one. Help me out!

As the temps rise and the snow melts, our walk to and from school is becoming difficult to manuever.

Georgia is attracted to ‘ALL’ bodies of water big or small.
