Rome!!

I had the greatest fortune to go to Rome on business.  I went a few days early to see some of the most amazing sites I have ever seen.

Castle Saint Angelo

Altar of the Fatherland

Colosseum

Vatican

Sistine Chapel

 It also had some pretty incredible food!

Best & most expensive Ice Coffee EVER!

 Back to the sites!

Trevi Fountain

Can you believe there were 2 in this car?

 For all the tourism and wealth that the Vatican oozed, I was most surprised by the amount of homeless and street vendors I saw in Rome.  I really didn't expect to see so much of it...everywhere!

 Now time to get ready to go off on the company cruise!!  

Our view-Amalfi

CEO Dinner

Corsica

Fun Desired Image night

Captain's Black Tie Dinner

 To say that this was a trip of a lifetime is an understatement....absolutely over the top and very hard to ever come close to again.  I'm spoiled and miss my butler!!

Spring Fun Day at School

The boys always have fun at this event but this year they were even stars!!

What concentration....they all did a great job!

New Toy!

The boys thought they died and went to heaven when they were gifted a trampoline.  We had to take it partially apart to transport it, then Curtis & I put it back together as Keith was away on business.

 What fun...until we need to cut the lawn :)

Dad is away and the kids will play...

Keith was away on business so we decided to go have some fun...

We went out bowling and then out for a nice sushi dinner.  Oh and did I mention it was our 19th wedding anniversary.   Daddy O was so sad he missed it but sent me a lovely bunch of flowers to the office...I missed getting them so had to drive in to get them the next day.  Roads were closed and the trip took much longer than we had ever imagined but we had fun anyway...hit the office, went out to the Village idiot for lunch, quickly played at the AGO!  Always turning lemons into lemonade!!

Totally worth it!!

Having Daddy O home would have been the best present ever but we did our best to celebrate without him.

Mom Goes to Amsterdam & Den Bosch

I was fortunate to be able to go to Den Bosch for training through my work.  It was an amazing trip!

Leaving Toronto

Arriving in Amsterdam

Typical Dutch countryside

The view from my room

Boy do they like to bike over there!!

A beautiful famous church

My training team from all over the world!

some of the inside of the HQ...breathtaking

time to come home..hello TO

It was a whirlwind adventure that I will never forget.  I can't wait for another opportunity to go back...hint, hint!!

Easter Weekend!

We had a fantastic time up at the camp with many of our friends and all was great until Easter Sunday morning when we woke up to SNOW!!  Thankfully the Easter Bunny still managed to find us and it didn't ruin any of our good times.

 On Easter Monday we found this incredible dog park that Maui loved.  She made some new friends and we will be sure to go back and see them again.  What a great weekend!! 

Hockey's Done for Another Season

The boys both had a great year.  Curtis' Team fought hard all season long and nearly made the playoffs but the math just wasn't in their favour

Major PeeWee White - Hawks

Spencer's Team managed to Win the Division!

We celebrated both victories with what else....sushi!!!
