Of suspension bridges, Treetop Adventures, and why exactly Kadin keeps picking his nose
So far for us, 2005 has not been a year of idleness! Kadin and I had gone to bed relatively early in the wee hours of New Years day (around 1:30 AM, he'd woken up about 20 minutes before) as I had volunteered to be The One to get up with him in the morning while everyone else got a bit of extra sleep. It was only fair, since his nanny and poppy had volunteered to be The One and The Other One (respectively) the night before, letting Tonia and I sleep in to some grotesquely late hour of like...9 or 10. TEN O'CLOCK!
Once everyone was finally awake and properly dosed with their own favourite painkillers, the official Preparation Of The Ham began. It was a big ham. It was a nice ham. Later in the story, it even became a delicious ham for everyone who partook. I opted for hamBURGERS for my induction into 2005.
But back to the Preparation Of The Ham. Actually, there isn't much to say. It just boils for a few hours then cooks for a while, then Sharon and Tonia did some stuff to it while I watched Kadin. Exciting eh? So to break up the day, we all went to the park in the early afternoon and had a grand time with Kadin. The following pictures tell a better story than I possibly could.
On Sunday, we all went to the Capilano Suspension Bridge. It was a great time, as Kadin had a wonderful time on the bridges and trails, and Tonia finally got to live like an Ewok while walking the bridges in the Treetop Adventures portion.
Fun times were had by all. I'll explain Kadin's nose-picking tomorrow.
