Zach had a small party with a few friends from school. Aaron and Zach then went to watch wrestling at the old Caledonia arena for the evening and had a great time.

October

It's been a hectic month. Zach has started his 1st year of novice hockey. I made it to his 4th game this year as I was working for the other 3.

Lexi's Class Trip

Lexi's class went on their 1st class trip to the Butterfly Conservatory in Cambridge today. I got to go along as a parent volunteer. It was a nice day.

Lexi colouring her "butterfly crown".

The fair has come and gone for another year. Zach, Lexi and I spent 12 hours at the fair on Friday. Zach spent some of the time with his class as his whole school came for a trip.

September 9 - Lexi's 1st Day of School

Lexi went to school on the Friday. Here are a few from her 1st day of Junior Kindergarten.

Aunt Pam came over with Axel to watch her get on the bus. My Dad was half way here when the bus showed up - it was just a little bit earlier than the previous days.

Too cute!

September 6 - First Day of School

Zach started Grade 2 this year. Here are the pictures from his 1st day. Zach arrived home and on his way up the lane announced "Mom, I'm not in Grade 2. I'm in Grade 2/3."
