Flying a kite for the first time

I'm 31 years old and flew a kite for the first time. There's a first time for everything. I told my friends last year I'd never flown a kite before so on my birthday, they bought me one. It wasn't until last week that I brought it out during a windy day to give it a try. It was more gusty than windy so it was difficult keeping it up in the air but it was still fun. I want to try flying a kite at the ocean now where there'd be more consistent wind. Hopefully it won't take another 30 years to do that.



Who's excited about flying a kite?
Check out those streamers man!!!

Now I can check that off the bucket list

Patio Upgrade

Since we'll be putting our apartment on the market soon, we thought it'd be a good idea to give our balcony a little sprucing up so it looked nice for viewing. Darcie put a fresh coat of paint on the concrete and then bought some chairs at Ikea, plants and table at Home Depot, and rug at The Superstore. It's like a little oasis out there on a nice sunny day. We wish we'd done it sooner so we could've enjoyed it ourselves more. We really enjoy sitting out there now on a sunny day having a drink or reading.

Darcie Running Half Marathon

Darcie ran in the Toronto half marathon May 15th. Although the marathon was open for anyone who registered, Darcie and a group of Chiropractic students and others ran for a special cause. They were raising funds for a woman trying to achieve a higher medical education in Central America. I believe she raised close to $400 herself. Thanks to everyone who donated. I believe the half marathon was a distance of 20 km's and her goal was to do it under 2 hours. Her time was 1:58:42.

Bathroom Renovation Before Pics

We finished renovating the second bathroom. Darcie got to design the first one so it was my turn to decide how this one was to look. With some additional guidance from Darcie, here's some before and after pics.
