No Snow...Yet

We're up in Thunder Bay for 10 days - lovely weather so far (and by lovely, I mean there hasn't been a full-on blizzard yet), but stay tuned. The trip here was completely uneventful - not a peep from any of the three kids on the drive to Toronto or the flight to T-Bay.

So far we've managed one fat lip (Molly), one bloody nose (Jacob) and three sleepless nights (Zoe), so it's just like home. We had a great hike up Rabid Mountain (with a northwestern Ontario accent, Rabbit Mountain always sounds like Rabid to me), with the twins making it all the way up unassisted.

Kate and I have taken advantage of the grandparents to go for runs and swims (Kate even brought her road bike with her, for a full on triathlon training week).

Here are some photos:
- playing with Papa in the sandbox

- going on a family walk

- checking for heffalump tracks

- swinging Molly

- Jacob and Papa, discussing weighty issues of the day

- throwing stones with grandma

- picnic time

- serious cookie eating

- more serious cookie eating
