August & September 2014

 Back to School - Another Year!

(for update on Krista's comeback/running, click here)
Jonathan and I continue to be busy with work, training and commitments at our Brant Community Church. We are nearing the end of the young-kids-at-home stage and approaching the busy extra-curricular taxi years. So blessed though.

Krista and Leah with McKayla and Tarah Korir at the September Harvest Half  to raise funds for the Kenyan Kids Foundation. 
I spoke at the sold-out pasta dinner and we donated our Chariot double running stroller for auction, which contributed to $10,000 raised that weekend! Kinda sad to be through this stage of life but happy to see a young running couple purchase it to use with their little one.

Seth, gr 1 was instructed to draw a picture of someone helping another. This is Coach Rick helping Krista. So sweet.

Like her mom - sporty and pink-loving!

Seth has started taking piano lessons at school. He loves it! He will resume swimming lessons in early October.

Micah, gr 3 is back it again. Hockey 4x/wk is good for this energetic boy. He's also doing x country running with Coach Krista DuChene helping the team!
Both Jonathan and Krista were born in '77. 

Last year at home before school. Going to cherish every day. Krista will take her to the skate at the Gretzky, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Train ride to grandma and grandpa's, Labour Day weekend. Jonathan joined us after work.

Hockey. Team DuChene.

What a great summer. Loved every bit of it.

A little treat out at the Brown Dog.

Another work of art from Seth. He knows how Bethany Hamilton's comeback (surfer who lost her arm to a shark) inspired me so he drew a picture.
