Wha'd Up Wednesday

Wha'd up, wha'd up?

Not a whole lot has been going on here.  Summer weather has sucked so far.  Rainy and cold.  We've only got about two tanning sessions in so far and are still white. 

The middle arm is Twin 1.  The brown arm is of a golfer/carpenter.

It's been so miserable that Twin 2's husband asked if they were going to Mexico this year.  Hopefully August will turn around when we are on vacation. 

Twin 2 went over to PEI last weekend for Callie's 2nd birthday.  She delivered Callie into this world...or so she tells people.  Even though it was cold she had a great time.  She stayed at her BFF's mother's cottage and stayed in the camper parked beside the cottage.  Neither of the Twins camp.  It went pretty well until Twin 2 and her husband woke up in the morning and needed to poop.  Can you poop in a camper toilet?  


While Twin 2 was in PEI, Twin 1 was babysitting.  Her hubby and two friends went golfing and it was a wet day so she didn't want to go.  She babysat instead.  Their friends has the brother to Pearl so he came over for the day.  



Twin 1 finally got some new workout mats that replaced the ones the dogs worked on.  They are pretty and girly.


Twin 1 also pulled out her rower for the first time in a year and did 20 minutes on it.  Her poor hands.





It was Pearls 1st birthday this month.  Not sure of the exact date but we're thinking around July 21st.   Here is a picture of her and Onyx celebrating.


To/Two food pictures now.

On Saturday morning we had a quick appointment and Twin 2's husband drove us.  While we were at the appointment he went to Tim Hortons for a coffee and came back with one of these for each of us.  

Reese Pieces Donut!!
It was tasty but we were thinking it would be more peanut butter flavoured instead of just the three peanut butter cups on top.  It was a chocolate donut with kind of a boston creme filling in the middle with chocolate icing and nuts and three peanut butter cups on top.

Remember when you used to get a handful of candy from the .25 cent candy machines?  Not any more.  .25 cents got Twin 2 FOUR M&Ms. FOUR!  But I guess when you buy a $5 'family pack' you only get 20, if that lol





This weekend is the long Natal Day weekend.  We are having our annual family golf tournament this weekend over in PEI.  We are renting a 4 bedroom cottage with the whole fam so it should be a good time.  We'll post on that next week.

Tip Tuesday



Invest in good gear.  For beginners, this may mean a good pair of running shoes to avoid injuries and technical clothes made of fabrics that wick away moisture and prevent chafing.  For others, experimenting with the latest GPS unit or shoe pod can be a fun way to track training progress and stay motivated.
