I didn’t know if I was going to blog tonight but after a weekend away at the family cottage, completely removed from all forms of technology, the girls are making up for lost time and reacquainting themselves with their forgotten friends, Computer and Television. I like to call those friends Peace and Quiet, respectively.

A little photo journal from our weekend away. We had picture perfect weather and lots of uninterrupted family time.

Nature Pics

The exact same picture, but behind my sunglasses. Because I’m cool like that.

Randomness.

Saturday was a rest day but I enjoyed a little unofficial exercise in the kayak. Holy shoulder work out batman.

Yes, it’s really me behind the camera!

Rapids!

I see… a bad moon rising! There’s a bathroom on the right… or whatever the lyrics are to that song.

Food Pics

Have veggies, will travel.

I put together a couple of these little trail mix containers for easy snacking and packing. This was my pre-run snack this morning. Dried apples, raisins, walnuts and pumpkin seeds.

I love to run at the cottage because the change of scenery is a great way to mix it up. Plus the area is hillier than an SOB and is another great way to mix it up. The hills also give me a great chance to try out new curse words too.

Kids Pics

This would be Ava’s new favorite thing: being buried to her neck in sand.

Rinsing off and Zak showing Ava he can float.

And of course she had to be buried again this morning before we left.

This concludes tonight’s photo adventure. Back to regularly scheduled blogging tomorrow AM!
