Gather Around the Christmas Tree

Halloween Fun
Moving into the highschool for grade 7 and 8 has taken a young girl and thrown her into a situation where she has heard and seen things that maybe she shouldn't at 12 years old.But, there is some fun aspects too! The highschool drama students were doing facepainting for the younger kids with a Halloween twist. Emily went for a zoombie.
And, the funny thing is I can remember doing this exact same thing at Halloween time when I was in highschool. We didn't have younger kids though, and just painted each other's faces in drama class.
I think it was nice of the older kids to include the younger ones.
Happy Halloween!

The View Out My Door
Everything is so beautifully green. The grass is growing like crazy and the leaves on the trees are becoming nice and thick.
I wish I could of captured the pink blossoms floating to the ground. In a few short days this tree will no longer be this gorgeous colour and the ground will be littered with petals.And, I am glad the neighbour doesn't get bothered by me wandering the street with my camera and taking pictures of his tree:)

Summer Dreamin'
Last summer we went to Toronto to enjoy a ball game and it is one of our favourite places to visit. We have been to the Sky Dome (which is now called the Rogers Center) on a couple of previous occasions and I don't think it would ever not be exciting to visit.
The day we were there, we were lucky to enjoy the dome being open and from our seats we were able to see the CN Tower right in front of us.
Being small towners, going to the city is exciting. Everything from the subways to the highways.
These are one of those things that the kids will always remember.
