On Tuesday, we went for a hike around the campus of my alma mater. I think that this is one of the most beautiful campuses in the country, but I am biased, of course. I showed the kids the walk I used to have to make from the gym after a workout to my apartment at 88 Highand Ave. Except, that we didn't quite make it all the way to Highland Avenue since we stopped to chat to 2 students from Riyad, Saudi Arabia.

When we were in Halifax, the kids were constantly asking Grammie to hold things for them in her bag (which i would then carry!): hats, suncreen, sweaters, etc, until Grammie's bag literally fell apart. So I took them shopping at Mountain Equipment Coop for these day packs, so now they can carry their own stuff: hats, waterbottles, snacks, gum. They love them and it works great for me!

Hunter got this new shirt at Cows on the Waterfront. It seems very appropriate. It says "iCud". Tyler got a shirt that says "Teenage Mutant Ninja Cows" but he didn't want me to take a picture.

We went to Halifax for the July 1 weekend. Had lots of fun walking around the Waterfront, shopping and eating lots of bad stuff! The kids had a chance to see their other grandparents which they were very excited about. We watched the July 1 Fireworks on the pier.

The below pics show Tyler meeting Mr. Hockey-Gordie Howe. It was an exciting day! We left with a hockey jersey signed by Mr. Howe himself.
I am having big troubles trying to blog here at my vacation destination. Uploading pics is not so easy and I can't enter a title for the blog entry either!!
