May Activities - Spring in Wagner Lake


Well as you can see the snow has finally gone and we have beautiful tulips and greenery, never thought it would come. The temps are warming up nicely, still a bit cold at times but getting to be quite nice.
We have been busy over the last month, we have been to Ottawa (pictures and stories below), James has had a few Venturers camps and Steph has been getting ready for her ballet recital. On top of all this we have been getting ready for the summer and the end of school which is very strange but all that usually happens in Aus in December is happening now in June so its all go with summer parties and break up school events.
Took Steph and a few of her friends to Canadas Wonderland on Friday and they had a great time went on heaps of rides and I came home with a lovely head ache, photos below.
She has been missing her friends quite badly lately and she really neede cheering up its been hard for her to fit in with a group here, girls this age are pretty cliquey and she has found it hard to find a nice group. She is really well though I am now giving her Methotrexate injections which was pretty harrowing at first but its all fine now, she is of all her other drugs and we go to the Sick Kids Hospital again in a few weeks for her check up, but as you can see she looks very healthy, we finally have a bit of puberty happening which is good.
James has yet another girlfriend and is really doing well at school now so he has finally settled down and now has his final exams for yr 9 then is finished for the summer. Its been a struggle getting him through but he seems to have picked it up now which is good. He is very happy and very comfortable in his school he is much more of a social bunny that Steph and seems to get along fine wherever we put him.
Kevin has been working long hours to raise money for us to go on our summer trip so he is always busy with that still no word on being able to teach here they are hopeless, we really hope to get him teaching in September would make our finances much more confortable.
Anyway enjoy the pics.
