If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes

Oh the joys of an Edmonton summer. The weather on Thursday was glorious before the thunder storm rolled in- 27 degrees. Friday we were down to 11 with rain forecast for the whole weekend. Alvin came up with the lemonade this weekend though- rather than complaining about all the rain he gathered the troops & we hit the ice. That's right, who knew skating in July would be so much fun.

Alvin's second time on skates & he's already starting to look comfortable. Here are the boys warming up.















Al & Devo:





























Let's get back at it...














I realized when uploading these photos that I never even mentioned Canada Day long weekend. Oops- we celebrated Jason's birthday one night















I couldn't resist posting this photo of Ma because it is rare to see her with two drinks...














and Canada day the next
