December...I'm still on my to do list from October!

So I have been told by our loyal blog followers that I have not updated in a while. Well, the truth is we got back from Edmonton last Tuesday and it has seriously been a whirlwind ever since. Who knew December would get here so quickly and then Christmas 12 days away! What?!!

Here are some more photos from our trip back to Edmonton. Not all of them are here but I will post more tomorrow. I'm wiped...I going to finish this blog, write some christmas cards, watch some Laguna Beach (I'll admit it) and then call it a night.

Recap:

Yummy Mummy Fitness Class - Liam and I were able to join my friend Kristina's class, that she runs, for a morning. We had a great time especially since most moms there had kids that were over 20 lbs so I didn't feel like a tool only being able to do less than 10 squats with Sumo Boy aka Liam. The music was awesome and the kids were able to run around at will. Great exercise had by all.

Mom! Dance faster will yeah!

Annual schools I've worked in visits:

I had a chance to stop by Ainlay to see some of my favorite collegues from my first years of teaching. I was just a 21 year old kid when I joined this staff and I am proud to say that these teachers made me the teacher I am today. I had a million mentors and staff that really took me under their wings. Great memories!!

Pat, Liam and I
The last year I taught I was at Britannia in the west end. Loved the kids, loved the staff and made some truly long lasting friendship. My friend, Kirstin, was generous enough to host a brunch at here house for us. Completely kid friendly and once again I look back at those times and realize how good I had it.

The ever growing Britannia crew
I have always had wonderful experience at school for the most part. Really the only time I cried was when I was leaving the school for the summer or when we moved away.

Pilgrimidge to the Pedalhead bike store

It's a rule when in Edmonton must visit some of my most favorite guys in the world!! Liam loves these guys and had a great time trying to demolish their new store. We miss you out in the 'Wack!!! Good luck with the new store and see you in the New Year!

Da' Boyz

That's all for tonight! I'll post tomorrow with more photos. Until then have a great evening.

See yeah later suckas!!!

Love,

Mo, Matt and Liam
