What a good weekend! On Friday we picked out a new apartment for the upcoming year. We hope to move in a week or so once the paint job is finished and we can get our current place packed up. Then on Saturday we had lunch with some friends who also had babies down in Thailand at the Juniper Tree Resort. It was good to see them again, as we had spent a lot of time together when we were down there and had not seen each other too much since returning to our city.
Then, today being Father's Day, Anita made me a big breakfast – eggs, bacon, grits, & waffles. Callie loved it too. Then in the afternoon I went over to a nearby college campus and played basketball with some random guys and sweated a lot, which was good for me. Sometimes I feel like I don’t get much exercise although I’ve been mountain biking more recently, so that’s good. Anyway, after that we went to a cookout at our friends’ place nearby. It was such a close ride that we all (the whole family) hopped on my electric scooter and headed over. There were burgers, chicken, potato salad, mac 'n' cheese, baked beans, and some really good desserts. Callie got to play with some other kiddos while Zane slept in our friends’ place.
All in all, it was a fun weekend. A little tiring with a big decision about a place to live as well as playing b-ball with a bunch of guys 10 years younger than me, but overall good. Next up, we've got to decide on paint colors for our new place. And I’ve got to make Anita’s birthday special on Wednesday.
We actually moved on Canada Day (July 1) and it took 4 truckloads to get all of our stuff to our new place. The apartment itself is just a 5-minute drive from our old place. We went from a first floor apt to an 11th floor apt, so now we get a lot more sunshine and less second hand smoke coming in our windows. Unpacking took more than 3 weeks and after that we had Anita's dad and brother come visit for a week, so now we're finally getting around to some blogging. Here are a few pics from the past month. Enjoy!
Callie would rather play with the mango pit than eat the mango.
Everyone here thinks Callie & Zane are twins when they roll in this ride.
She loves wearing Zane's bibs for fun.
