European Vacation - Day 2 Prague, Czech Republic

 

Nice to meet you.



Yep, meat, meat and more meat in Prague!

Dinner cruise.


 
We enjoyed a lovely breakfast of eggs, meat, bread, yogurt, museli, fruit, and coffee this morning before heading out walking for a few ours. We went to the Jewish Quarter and Old Town. Very scenic with a lot of tourists. Later we went on a dinner cruise, which was quite enjoyable. Now we are packing up, getting ready for the next stop: Vienna, Austria.

Worlds - Moscow, Russia and European Vacation - Day 1 Prague, Czech Republic

Moscow.

Jonathan and Rick really enjoyed the scenery at night.


Scenes along the river.


Ready to represent Canada in the marathon.

He made it with Coach Rick to cheer me on at the World Championships!

Outside our Chopin Hotel in Czech Republic on our 12th anniversary, Aug 11.

Love the cobblestone streets.

Oh yeah....amazing food. Just what we wanted. Roasted bell peppers with goat cheese and pumpkin soup to start....


...followed by duck, red cabbage, kohlrabi, sausage, pork and potato dumplings. It was an absolutely delicious dinner.

So scenic.

The area of Stmustku.


Enjoying ourselves and everything around us.

Right in the middle of the street, people were served their spit-roast pork dinner.

Have always loved the flower boxes.

Getting ready to go to the Burlington 5 km.

All set in our gear.

Cute little pink socks and Saucony shoes.

Was a hot one at 38 C!

Couldn't resist.

Praying for and supporting Britanie through her breast cancer treatment and recovery road. We are in it together.

Treating the kids to a snack at the Blue Dog.

Love the Dureno pool.

They always seem to find their favourite thing to do on the swing set, getting more adventurous and unique each time.

Maple Grove Family Camp 2013

Enjoying some tomato soup for lunch before heading out to play for the afternoon. Can't believe the boys are already at the stage where they basically show up for meals and candy store money!

Sweet girl biking around.

Getting ready for breakfast.

We had some rain early in the week but Leah was dressed for it.

Lots of R n R at the cabin.

June 2013

Loving mommy's Liberte  sponsorship!

Dinner in Paris on the Grand River (cause daddy was working late so mommy didn't cook!)

School is out! Leaving the Gretzky Centre where mom trains. Thanks for the kid care, Maureen and Jeanetta! They've watched each kid since birth!

The flying Chariot!

Good book to read with the kids in dealing with Pastor Andy's death.

Firefighter hat for show n' tell? Nope. Our kids get duodenal stents and sphincter tomes! Happy Father's Day to an amazing Dad who is the best role model through his employment at  Vantage Endoscopy, leadership to our family at church, love and commitment to his kids and wife at home.

Ice cream to celebrate the end of JK....

...and Grade One.


Britanie and Chloe, who's sporting some spiffy Saucony shoes. Team DuChene and Team Summerhays are "In This Together" as Britanie was just diagnosed with breast cancer.

These two girls are dolls.

Heading home, saying bye!
