On May 31st, Teo turned 3! We had a wonderful Curious George-themed party for him, as he is obsessed with this cartoon:) Tom did a wonderful meal including blueberry and goat cheese stuffed chicken wrapped in prociutto, homemade burgers, mushroom and garlic bake, etc, and I made a curious george cake.

Another fun event we had was Teo`s first train trip! We took a 35 min. VIA train ride to Kingston. We also had numerous bus rides, and Teo`s first ferry ride to Wolfe Island, where we watched an outdoor horse competition. I got burnt to a crisp, but we had a great time checking out all the cute boutiques and shops along Princess St. Teo fell asleep by 2pm and slept for 3 hrs through bus trips, and a coffee shop visit, he was all funned out.
     
A sad event that occurred in May, was the passing of my Aunt Jill. She was a fighter and had lived her life beautifully and strong, despite a heart condition, and numerous surgeries over the years. We had a memorial for her 2 weeks ago, where many family members flew and drove here to Belleville, to celebrate her life together.

 Tom also went away to Colorado for 10 days to work on a deck for a client. It was nice for him to spend time with his brother`s there, and I`m glad he had the chance to do that. We also attended a wedding for friends of our`s in Belleville, Farah & Peter, which was a really good time. Another sad event was the passing of the Mom of a dear friend of mine, Pam. I drove down to Milton and stayed over in Georgetown at Sylvia`s to attend the funeral. Carol is very much missed by her kids and grandkids, but is now made healthy and whole and enjoying the presence of her Saviour. We also had a break-in next door a few days ago, and the same people broke in within the hr. down the street, but 2 were caught. So I`m praying for God`s restoration and healing power in this location of town, and throughout Belleville. Our house reno's in our flip across town are going well. I have been busy continuing to paint, pick out colours, designing, and gardening in this extreme heat. But it is definately worth all the hardwork, watching such a dive come together and become an amazing stately home that will be a wonderful house for some family to share memories at, is amazing. Well I better be off to bed, Tom`s golfing with my brother tommorrow, and I will have Teo for most of the day. So I need to gear up for another exciting day in our lives! |
