Argh. Sorry all. Major writer’s block over here. Scout’s honour – I’ve totally had the computer on my lap, all ready to blog, aaaaaannnnndddd…nothing.

Things are still good out here at the end of the ol’ Oregon Trail. School, work, weekend, wash, rinse, repeat. We’ve passed peak blossom and are settling into a nice, warm late spring. Just over a month left of school (shoot – we should probably figure out what these kids are doing for summer break).

In lieu of anything more thought-provoking than that, some pics:

The Boy’s still playing hockey – getting better every week! Poor kid had a game at 7:30 am yesterday morning.

To assist the hockey effort (see what I did there?), there was some major father/son bonding over the building of an epic hockey net.

The Girl’s been doing a lot of non-screen stuff lately – mostly drawing, but also some puzzling.

Epic net, yes? There’s slapshot practice every night. (I overhead the tail end of a story that concluded with “and then my puck went into the neighbour’s yard and I heard one of their chickens squawk” but I pretended not to hear it.)

And let’s end with a gratuitous “Girl on the Beach” picture. (Another statement I pretended to not to hear was “awww, do we HAVE to go to the beach AGAIN this weekend? I’m sick of the beach.” Silly spoiled children – try growing up on the prairies a three DAYS’ drive from the beach and see how sick of it you get.)
