Working in Dad's WorkShop..

Alex building some new wheels for Uncle Bert!

Hard Day of Training.....

Another tough day of training; however, this time it was at Stake Lake ripping it up on the ski trails.

Gymnastics......

Alex jumping off the horse at gymnastics! He just moved up a level today, we have him training hard for the 2018 Olympics. He trains up to 6 hours/day, he is tired a lot but this is the only way to get him to win that Gold. I don't think we are that tough on him(;

Overlander Ski Club(Kamloops)

Greg and I are in full training for X-Country(Skate) Skiing! I have my first race this weekend in Kelowna......stay tuned for the race report!

Happy New Year 2007!!!!!

Where has the year gone? I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year. Yesterday we spent the day skating with Alex at a pond near our house. Then we headed up to Lac La Jeune to go for a night snowshoe through some epic trails and then a little dip in the hot tub. It was a very entertaining night. This year we have made some very good friends in Kamloops; however, we miss a lot of family and friends in the Lower Mainland.

Cheers,
The Timewell's

Wow, what a Christmas......

Colton, Alex, Jaymie,Morgan and Liam! What a great day! Opened gifts from Santa, then hung out at Jaymie and Colton's house with the entire family. The kids played all day long! Alex was feeling under the weather today; however, he tried to keep up to the rest of his cousins(what a trooper). The highlight of the day was when Uncle Len let Alex drive the excavator in their front yard: they dug a hole and picked up a huge tree trunk! Alex was on cloud nine........ Today we are just hanging around home and letting Alex get over his nasty cold! Merry Christmas to everyone, enjoy the holiday season.

Opening gifts!
Look at my new "roboreptile"..........
Just digging up Uncle Len's back yard!
We did some great work!
Horsing around with my cousins: Colton and Liam!

Happy Birthday Mom!

Dad and I made this cake for my Mom's Birthday.....she is 29!

One more day til Christmas.....

This is my first time on skates! I loved it! We all went skating at Juniper outdoor rink in Kamloops.

The last couple of days have been so busy! We had an early Christmas with Grandpa and Grandma Timewell. They came to visit us in Kamloops and we went to see the Christmas Lights at The Wildlife Park. Morgan and Liam are in Kamloops visiting for Christmas. We have all been hanging out playing, skating, playing, and eating(junk food).

Decorating the Gingerbread House...

Three cousins make and create a gingerbread house and get messy!!!!





The Christmas House is finished!

Cousin Jamyie at her Swim Meet!

We went to watch Jaymie swim today at The Kamloops Classic Swim Meet! She swam the 50 backstroke and improved her time by 19secs: here I come 2012 Olympics!!!!

No Cavities!!!!

I went to the Dentist for the first time today! I had a check up and a cleaning. Dr. Natalee said my teeth were very healthy! I got a car, toothbrush and toothpaste for being a great patient. Daddy has not been to the Dentist in many many years!

Lots of SNOW.....

First Blizzard of the year. It is -20 and with the wind chill it is -30 or colder as the wind has been blowing steady at 50-60km/hr. We went outside and shovelled the driveway: Greg got frostbite on his nose(he is doing fine). Alex had "rosey" cheeks for a couple hours after being outside. Trinket couldn't stay outside longer than 5 minutes without having her paws freeze. A big change from last weeks' balmy dry weather where it was warmer than the lower mainland. I guess winter has arrived!

Kamloops Santa Claus Parade

Today we went to the Santa Claus parade. It was worth the cold(-15 with the wind chill) wait to see Santa: he even looked at me and waved! Vanessa and Mikayla came with us too! Can't wait till Christmas!

Cousin Colton over for a play!

Colton and Alex hanging out and playing hard!

Snowing in The Loops!

First snowfall of the Year! The boys had to go to work and shovel the driveway and some playing too! Halloween just past and Christmas is around the corner.

Halloween at Little Ducklings Daycare

Halloween in Kamloops

Alex had an absolute blast on Halloween. He went to an all-day Halloween event at "Little Ducklings Daycare", then he went Trick or Treating with Vanessa, Mikalya and Mommmy. Dad stayed at home to hand-out the treats. What fun and too much candy!

more pictures from moab and rock creek....

We are home! What a trip; however, we are home just in time for Thanksgiving dinner! Happy Thanksgiving!

Yet another delay posting.........

Yet another delay in posting updates and pictures.......
We had a blast in Moab. Greg was able to go on a great 4 hour mtn. bike ride, while Alex and I hung out at the Moab Valley Campground(we swam, played in the sand and went for a little hike with Trinket). Then next day we went to view the Arches, we had to hike 5km to see them.......Alex almost made it; however, Mom had to make the decision to pull him off the route early so he would make it back to the truck! He did about 7km of walking and running: he loved it! I think we got a little endurance athlete on our hands! The picture below is the rock mtn across from our Campsite: Greg is climbing it(Find Greg and win a free bike from his store).


We decided to leave Moab a day early: the weather wasn't great. We drove to Kellogg, Idaho for the night, then to Rock Creek, BC. We found the perfect camping site! Seriously, we didn't want to leave! Rock Creek Provincial Camground: we parked right next to Kettle Valley River, Alex had a huge sand box to play in(area where campers pitch their tents) and trinket ran around wild chasing thousands of chipmunks(today she can barely move after chasing them for 2 days).
