Ryan’s team hockey get together

Ryan’s hockey team attended a game of the Vancouver Giants(Vancouver’s minor hockey team).   They had a blast there all together, shared popcorn and lots of laughs.  The kids almost made it to the end of the game, we left halfway into the third.  The Giants were up by 4 goals anyway.

Halmoni and Harabuji visit to Vancouver

Halmoni and Harbuji hardly  ever come visit us in Vancouver but decided to make a very short, last minute trip.  We were all very excited!  We went to eat Halmoni’s favoirte noodle at Sha Lin, went to the Lego Store where Halmonie and Harabuji got Ryan a new Lego set (Palpatine’s Arrest), and we went to Queen Elizabeth Park on a beautiful sunny day to have brunch.  Their trip was very short but it was very nice for the kids to spend time with them.

 

Halloween 2013

One of our kids’ favourite day of the year is Halloween.  What’s there not to like?  They get to dress up and get treats!  Madeline decided to dress up in Ryan’s old Fireman costume to daycare.  It was a surprise to everyone as we were certain that she was going to dress up as a princess.  The fireman costume was slightly big on her but she looked super cute.  She ended up changing into a princess costume in the evening for trick or treat though.

Daddy, of course, outdid himself again and made Ryan a Luke Skywalker costume.  We tried looking for the costume from stores but with Star Wars being so popular amongst 5 year olds, it was impossible to find one.   Daddy screwed up a few times but managed to make Ryan a great Luke Skywalker costume that he happily and proudly wore to school and to trick or treat.  As an annual tradition, we met up with Ella and went around our neighbourhood for trick or treating.

 

Can you tell from the pumpkin carvings that we have a boy and a girl?  (Madeline really wanted to be a firewoman for her dress up at Chuva – her daycare!)

 

 

 

 

Pumpkin Patch Trip

Ryan and Madeline were very excited to go to the pumpkin patch.  Unfortunately, daddy was out of town playing a concert.  The kids went with their good friend Ella and had the chance to pick out their own pumpkin and ride on a tractor.
