Well, Grandma keeps telling me I need to do this so that she can see what is going on in this McDonald house hold. My little sister is so good at it now I need to try this out. The kids are busy with activites. Steel is doing Volleyball, YM and hang'n out with friends. Cole does basketball, and Cubs. Jade does Hip hop, paino, and Achivers, Maggie is now in Kindergarten and loves it she is also taking dance class which she loves even more. Ruby is sad when he playmate has to leave to kindergarten and has even tried to seek into the line with her. Ruby is also in dance class and loves to be like her big sister. Dave is so busy studing and working on his computer all of the time. I just try and keep up with this bunch. I sure do love all of them.

Learning

I thought I had better write a little about our fun summer we had. I am still new to all of this so it takes me a while to figure it out. We had a lot of fun going to beaches, playing at the parks, with friends and then out to Grandma's house. The kids just love to go and visit their grandparents and all of the cousins. We swam at the Raymond pool, played at the farm, picked rasberries at Grandma and pa McDonalds house. Went to Calgary with the McDonald cousins. We then ended our holiday with a trip to Kallispell MT. We love to go there. The kids love going to the hotel and swimming. We also went to the waterpark with the Harris cousins which was a blast. We are now home, have started school and fall has hit hard. Steel is in grade 7, and he is doing volleyball, lunch superviser, he takes the city bus to a high school,(scary for mom), he also is busy with scouts. Cole, he is in grade 4. He loves cubs and to ripstick. He has amazing balance. He also pogo sticks as well and has stilts. We are scared as to what he will ask for this christmas. Jade is in grade 2 going on 12. She loves school so much and is out little social butterfly. She loves to play with friends and be around people. She is in hip hop and paino. She keeps us busy. Maggie is 4 and in preschool. She also goes to dance class and loves to be with her friend Danika. Ruby, will be 2 on Oct 31st. She keeps us very busy and loves to watch her big sister and keep up with her. I love to watch Maggie and Ruby play together. Except when I hear them putting their dolls in a time out in there rooms. I hate it when your own voice comes out of your kids mouths. As for Dave he is still busy with work but is loving it. He always comes home with a new story about how he fixed someone up. I love to hear the stories and how he is helping so many people. As for me I just try and keep up with this bunch. I am so happy that steel is a good babysitter it helps me out a lot. WOW that was long. I will try and be better at this.
