Apple Camp 2012

The girls have spent the last two mornings at Apple Camp at the local Apple Store. They have been creating their own compositions with GarageBand and this morning they are editing their movies in iMovie. Hopefully this will further inspire them to create other movies.

Where did the school year go?

Returning to the classroom full-time was a lot harder than I anticipated. I knew it would be a challenge but what a challenge! Let's just say that on the first week of summer vacation Kyra and I are sick! I am so grateful for Eric being around to drive the girls to swimming and piano, giving me some time to prepare lessons, etc... This first weekend of the summer holiday, I am putting my feet up and enjoying the garden, the sunshine and family time.

The girls did a fabulous job at school this year. Both sang in the choir and took chess lessons at lunchtime. Alia joined the improv club and volleyball team.

The girls are looking forward to summer camps this summer. Today is Alia's first day at horseback riding camp. Kyra's art camp starts tomorrow.

Our summer will probably be just as busy the rest of the year but we will definitely find the time to slow down, hang out on a picnic blanket in the shade of  tree and just breathe.

Cabane à sucre 2012!
