Ooops... it's been a while. Greetings from the Yukon!

HI everyone. It has been a while. Spring has come and gone (so has the snow). Summer is already past and we are almost done Fall so I thought I better send some photos and give a brief update of events. 

Spring was crazy busy. I don't even have any highlights except that Mira and Kate both did well in their respective grades - Mira completed first year of high school and Kate finished grade 3. 

Summer arrived and brought us here in the Yukon the best summer we can remember - actually it was as good as 1994 when we came for a few weeks to play and ended up falling in love with the place. Not sure if the fine weather will bring a super cold winter but we will keep you posted. 

Summer - Paul worked for a friend's company (all Aussies - great laughs I understand), his own companay and worked on our house. Kate enjoyed both gymnastics and circus camp (highlight for her! - she now hopes to attend Cirque de Soleil circus school in Montreal for her high school - long bus ride each day Kate.) Mira had a great couple of weeks on the river with a conservation camp and loved it. I took some time to do some reading. We also went to Ontario to catch up with family.

 Our dear friends in T.O. took us in again..... thanks so much for the fun!

First Day of school - Kate

Like the last few autumns, Mira and friends have participated in the Klondike Road Relay - the kids - 8 of them, run from Carcross to Whitehorse, 75 kms. We leave Whitehorse with tunes thumping at 2 am and run/scream until they finish around 10 am this year. They busted all the records this year in speed - we even surprised a couple of check points having arrived so early! It was great fun and lots of laughs. 

Before....

Winners of the Youth Category - the Blue Squad Ski Team.

Last big news for the Fall would have to be Kate's birthday- she is still great but no longer eight!

Party central. 

So I hope this finds everyone happy and healthy. We are starting to prepare for the white stuff as we see it creep down the mountains surrounding the city; we know it will be here very soon. We are all back into activities and connecting the crazy weeks with somewhat restful weekends. 

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving - we are truly thankful. Sharon
