the Sound of Music!!
produced by Andrew Lloyd Webber - is playing at the Princess of Wales theatre in Toronto and we LOVED it!! if you have the opportunity to go, we'd recommend it! my thoughtful husband gave me tickets for my birthday last month, and i don't remember ever enjoying a birthday gift as much as i enjoyed last night. THANK YOU, Kev!! :) (now i feel even worse about neglecting him on his birthday! :) )
these next pics were taken about 30 seconds before i was reprimanded by a show guide :S teeeheee...how embarrassing. not even a great picture to show for it. :)


pre-show dinner at one of my favourite places....mmmmm, mmmmm.
my hot date, not impressed with my making him pose like a tourist but obliging all the same :)

i LOVE the ornamental cabbages & mums planters at falltime!! what an absolutely gorgeous time of year, praise GOD for the beauty in the world He created!!
jaden had an exhausting thanksgiving (pics of that to come soon Lori!!)...he sacked out while reading to himself mid-morning, which is unheard of in this household.
our kids are wonderful in many ways and we are extremely thankful for them, but the best of sleepers they are NOT. except josh, he's still so easy and sweet. Jadie used to be a great sleeper too...what happened?? his learning to climb out of his crib marked the end of easy bedtimes. last night, for example, while we were at the show mom managed to get him to sleep but then 1:00 am he was in our bed, kev took him back and it was back and forth a few times, lots of crying by him and singing songs by me & kev (i know, probably should have been spanks at that point instead of songs), until at 3:00 a.m. he made his way, howling, up to Oma's room as a last resort. So i gave in (i know, bad mom) and let him sleep with me in Ashleigh's bed!! so the battle on that front continues.... :(
hope you all had a great thanksgiving weekend and a good week!! Already the weekend, hope you have a good one! and to my hardworking, thoughtful husband - cheers!!

Congratulations Tim & Charlene!!
**IMPORTANT EDIT** thank you all for your kind comments, I realize that i was completely misleading b/c i neglected to mention that i had hired a babysitter to watch the boys. heheh. key point i forgot to make. so, i'm not superwoman as i've led you all to believe..quite the contrary!! sorry about that, i didn't mean to lie - it actually felt like we WERE juggling all that stuff :) ...hey, wait till sharon posts their pictures - they had SIX kids to watch, no babysitter, and the pics are GORGEOUS!!
and a beautiful day it was. Enjoy the pictures, although they don't capture it well. it was hard to juggle a baby, flowers, a two year old with a bee sting and a swollen hand (poor Jades), camera bag and camera...all the while trying to wrap myself in my shawl as it was chillier than it looks :)...but it was so fun. Tim & Charlene, congratulations, we LOVED your day and are so thankful to God for you both!! We pray that their marriage will be used by Him for the furtherance of His kingdom.






























my three sisters are so beautiful, especially on the inside. I say this not to be proud but b/c I am so thankful for them!!











a tiring day for the little people :)
Thanks for checking in, hope you'll enjoy the new blog!! :)
