Hairdresser, Jarah, and Grant!

Can't believe how good he stayed for fifteen entire minutes!

Love my boys!

Daddy don't go!

Couldn't not capture this one..

Sister Sonata held Grant while we practiced for the Primary Program. \I guess we could call her the baby whisperer.

October Conference weekend 2015

I am so grateful for the semi-annual opportunity to listen to God's chosen prophets and apostles. They have prepared inspired messages specifically for us in this time of the world. Their messages this past conference have been particularly uplifting and instructive. As we re-listen to a talk each morning during breakfast as a family, our family is reminded of ways to keep us safe and happy in these troubled times. I owe my happiness to the restored gospel of Jesus Christ... as well as to the dear family of mine that I get the chance to be with forever.

These aren't in order because I uploaded them onto my blogger app from my phone... and didn't realize I couldn't change them here on the computer. Oh well. I still like them.

 Our break between sessions- family walk to the park!

That is so funny, mama!!

JUST LOVE this little guy.

Trying to keep hubby happy every general conference :) He actually likes the sticky buns better but this is where we compromise- his favorite treat with my favorite topping- cream cheese frosting!

Love this boy. His puppy, Cookie, in his left hand and a book in the right? 

Ready for the next session? Sunday morning, here we come!

in love with this boy's new skill of walking!!

just walkin' down Winston Churchill... ya know.

FIFA women's World Cup Canada vs New Zealand

June 9, 2015
The night before driving down south away from Edmonton forever (jokes, just for now...) Robbie spontaneously planned a family date to the once in a lifetime FIFA World Cup game! It was a rain-delayed, 0-0 (but captivating) game and we had a ton of fun!

We had African drummers in front of us making a racket... it made the atmosphere that much more exciting as well as kept Grant pretty entertained!

smashed like sardines in the train on the way home!! SO many people attended this event.

Thanksgiving Monday

So I can't get a straight answer from my husband or other Canadians for that matter... What day is Thanksgiving in Canada? To them it's just a long weekend. I think it's Monday?? But we do the turkey on Sunday, as it's a stay at home evening after church and seems to work best. It just means we get a great free from school Monday and it being a holiday, nothing else is planned usually.  In Toronto area, there are tons of pumpkin patches, apple and strawberry farms, etc. with family friendly activities! We checked out Chudleigh's Apple farm today and loved it! Everyone and their dog (literally) decided to come out for the event. We found out once talking to people that this is a common Thanksgiving Monday tradition. Some people have raised their kids on this Thanksgiving outing, and honestly, I can see why! 

Now for the pictures! 

Canadian Thanksgiving

Happy turkey day in October!! The best part of this holiday is no school for daddy on Monday. But most Canadians I know celebrate with turkey on the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. So we follow that  tradition in the Cam and Rob Low family. We did this turkey low and slow in my new roaster while we were at church.. Didn't really have another option this time! But it turned out pretty good! 

Because we don't have family nearby we invited some friends  over who are in the same boat... The Miles family and also Brother McDonald- all from our Mississauga Ward. Ironically the Miles family is from the states, so this was their first Canadian Thanksgiving celebration. 

They just had a new baby, Gideon. Andrew Miles and Robbie serve in YM together and I go on weekly trail walks and hang out with Kelley (Andrew's wife) and our friend Jarah Weston. This is gonna be our family for the next few years... And any other young couples that move into the area! We gotta stick together!!
