We're going on a Staycation

This year marked our second annual Staycation with the Keats family. We tried our luck at the Delta this time. The kids had a ball, my only hope is that if we continue to do this we book a suite next year.

Christmas Eve and Morning

Santa found his way to the Lydon's once again. We were all spoiled by our families and Santa. We had a great Christmas. Noah finally got a DS which he has been asking for for two years now. Kya loves her Fur Real cat and Briana is happy that it's all over. She was not a fan of getting up at 6am on Christmas morning and is still a bit young to get into Christmas like the others. Next year will be crazy!

Christmas Preperation

There are no Christmas tree cutting photos this year because we bought our tree outside of Wal-Mart to support Shriners.The day that we (us and Greg's parents) were all able to go and get a tree it was very cold outside so we decided to keep it simple. Although the money went to a good cause I think next year we will head back to our favorite Christmas tree farm. We still had lots of fun decorating it.

Beavers

Noah joined Beavers this year and he loves it. His good buddy Christopher goes with him. Last month they had a special ceremony where the new beavers received their tails. The last picture I thought was cute even though it has nothing to do with Beavers.

Happy Halloween

Unfortunately I only took three pictures of our little treak or treaters last night. We had a very rushed start to our evening. We went to see the Caledonia Cup in the afternoon (very exciting game, YAY Loyalists!) and it was 530 by the time we got home. We made some quick pizzas and ate and got dressed it it was after 630. So I grabbed a quick photo on our way out the door. The weather was beautiful for Halloween night and the kids had a ball. I've never seen them move so quick as they were going from door to door. Maybe I should promise candy in the mornings when we are trying to get out of the house.

Fall 2009

Some fall photos taken at Odell Park and in our home.

Happy Birthday Kya

I can not believe that Kya is now 4 years old. I seriously do not know where the past four years have gone. She decided that she wanted to have a princess party this year with no boys around. So Greg took Noah and Briana out for the afternoon while Kya had 10 friends come over to help celebrate her birthday. I don't have many pictures since Greg wasn't around. He's much better with the camera than I am.
A HUGE thank you to Tracey for making Kya's birthday cake. And it tasted as good as it looked!

Apple Picking

I love the fall when we get to go apple picking. There is always such a good opportunity to get nice photos of the kids. I also learned how to make a delicious Maple Apple Pie this year to use all of those apples.

Canoeing

Kathleen was home during Harvest Jazz and Blues this year. Kathleen and Greg decided to take the kids for a Sunday afternoon paddle down the St. John River. They put in at the Bucket Club and paddled down to the Small Craft Aquatic Center.
