Ella

Please call and tell me how your first day of school went.

Master Labyrinth

Declan finished his homework in time to challenge his gramma and I in a game of Master Labyrinth.

If only ...

... they had their own 3DSs, they would not have use mine. And we could play together!

Serious computer issues

Hi,

I really want to make sure this site is updated regularly but we are continually experiencing computer issues.  Its a hardware problem: Windows absolutely refuses to run and I have tried two different versions of Linux.  Linux works until it doesn't and blames the hardware.   I've order parts, and I am having a computer built but it won't be ready for 2 weeks.  Until then, posting pictures which I really want to do, will still hopefully happen but it will be difficult and ask your patience if it doesn't happen as often as you'd expect.  

This also means availability on Skype and Facebook will be sporadic until the new computer is built.  I am currently posting this from my computer but I expect it to crash any minute :(   I hope Ella understands that these problems are making it difficult for us to connect with her on the computer - the problems will be fixed soon!

Message for Ella

Hi Ella,

I noticed that you tried a number of times to call yesterday using Skype and that you sent me facebook messages.  I'm sorry I was not around to answer.   Yesterday and today, the boys and I are running around doing plenty of errands getting them ready for school.   What I will do later today is call you on the telephone if I don't see you online.   I hope you visit "The Adventures of Declan and Darby in Ottawa" page often as I am going to try to update it everyday so you know what the boys are up to.

I hope you start to use the Wii U more.  There is an app on the Wii U called Wii U Chat.   Next time we speak I am going to suggest we try that because there is a camera so we can see each other.

Love Dad

Class of 2020

They give all grade sevens a graduation class shirt. He loves it!

They Arrived

Big change coming.

The purpose of this blog is going to change slightly.   Declan and Darby arrive in Ottawa tomorrow.   But Ella is staying in Powell River :(

So this will be used to keep family in Powell River up to date on the going ons of the boys in Ottawa.  Or might just create a new blog for that purpose - I haven't decided.
