Taking the Chengs to the Zoo

We are taking the Chengs to every kid-friendly place in Toronto it seems! This time around it was the zoo where Ellen got to see live animals for the very first time. She definitely didn’t enjoy the zoo as much as she did the rides at Wonderland or Centreville, but it was still a great experience for her. We took Winston too, but he didn’t seem interested in the animals this time around either (I think he would have preferred to see them in a video game format instead… haha!). We love the zoo though and I got to see baby Hudson for the first time so I’m happy!

Rafi & Olivia's Wedding

Rafi and Olivia got married on a lovely fall afternoon at the Kortright Conservation Centre. It was an adult-only celebration, but I got to take Paige since she’s attached to me, literally… haha. She looked so cute in her dress and everyone loved holding and taking pictures of her, myself included! Other than the unusually chilly evening, it was a really beautiful outdoor wedding and we wish the newlyweds a lifetime of happiness and love. Mazel Tov, Rafi and Olivia!

Paige's First Flight to DC

Paige and I decided last-minute to head to DC to visit the Changs. It was Paige's first flight but she was amazing and just slept the whole time, there and back! While we were there, the kids loved playing with Paige and the change of scenery was nice too. We’ll have to head there again with Paul and Philip to fully enjoy all the fun places DC has to offer, especially for Paul, the politics lover! We can’t wait to see the Changs’ brand new house that will be ready in March as well… how exciting! :)

I'm a First Grader!

Philip is now in Grade 1! Wow, time flies… I can’t believe he’s going to have his own desk and regular homework from now on… this teacher mom couldn’t be more proud! Haha. :)

Wonderland with the Chengs

As promised, we headed to Wonderland with the Chengs so Ellen could go on more rides with Philip. As it turned out, however, Ellen didn’t need Philip anymore and loved going on the rides all by herself! Philip didn’t mind at all as it allowed him to go on his roller coasters instead. We already have season’s passes for next year so there will be many more Wonderland trips, with maybe Paige going on some rides then too!

The Ramlogan Summer BBQ

The Ramlogans always have a summer bbq with Yen Vi cooking up a storm. She said this time it was going to be low-key, but low-key for her is extravagant for everyone else! Thanks for the yummy food, as always, and have a great start to the school year, Yen Vi!
