Yes, you read that right. Grade 9 retreat. Sophie didn't have hers when she started high school but that didn't stop her and a team of resilient Grade 12s from organising a smashing 3 day retreat for incoming Grade 9s. I won't share photos of them here but a few non-identifiable highlights.
 |
| Working on her J-stroke with Dad in Algonquin |
 |
| Heading to Toronto Island for the Longboat 10k (her first) |
 |
| And completing it - 4th in her age group! (And said she ran slowly to stay with her pal...) |
It was back to school (last edition) for our Grade 12 this Tuesday (traditional dinner of choice was: a salad and a dessert pizza!)
 |
| And then back to dance school on Saturday - just 3 classes a week + YMI + Nutcracker.... |
 |
| you do city things |
 |
| like a ballgame |
 |
| Went to an excellent production with this one who has eagle-eyes for all things theatre |
 |
| Early morning x-ray |
 |
| and a boot for 4 weeks |
We got it for free and holds a lot. But wow, is it hard to re-assembled when it goes wonky. Led by Seb, this great duo managed and without turning the air blue!
Thank you both so much!!!
 |
| Just wanted to help out Christine with the annual Magnolia petal dump |
 |
| straight from clubbing... |
 |
| blackcurrant ale - we both loved it |
 |
| French chickens wear Dior |
 |
| First market haul |
 |
The supermarket has yumminess too |
 |
| One has to eat outside as soon as possible! |
 |
| Never too old for chocolate |
 |
| and happy to search for it! |
 |
| Quite the haul - merci Eva et famille! |
 |
| bisous de France... |
 |
| hanging out with buddies |
 |
| and enjoying the D&D movie and fun fair (front row) |
 |
| heading to the garden centre |
 |
| but we still didn't get an olive tree |
