The many faces of Oliver was a small series I did last year where Oliver got dressed up in a bunch of his costumes and posed for some photographs. If you are interested, you can see the images at the following link: The Many Faces of Oliver. It doesn’t happen very often as Oliver is […]

The Easter Bunny is always very good to us and this year was no exception. Oliver had a blast searching through all the clues and limericks the ‘Ol Bunny left for him to find some treats. As you can see from the last photo, Dash wasn’t too impressed Ha! Cheers! trevor.

Oliver, his three friends, and the four Dad’s took the kids to their first Toronto Marlies hockey game. It was also the first time the kids went in a limo…which they loved. It was a great afternoon full of hockey, good conversations and yummy arena food. The kids (and the Dad’s) had a blast! Cheers! […]

Oliver and I decided to take a little walk in downtown Brampton to see what kind of trouble we could get in to. Since it was still early in the Spring season, our favourite Ice Cream shop was still closed (boo!) so we got the next best thing: SLURPEES! We enjoyed them in the square […]

More drawing and colouring characters. This time around Oliver was drawing some of his favourite youtube personalities from his most favourite video game: Minecraft. Not to be left out of the fun, Dash decided to get up on the fireplace mantle and strike a couple of fun poses. That cat never ceases to get a […]

As Oliver learns to read, different topics start to interest him more and more. He stumbled on the Captain Underpants series and fell in love with the goofy topics and the illustrations in the books. I swear I didn’t stage these photos of Oliver. I found him fast asleep one night after he finished up […]

We joke that Dash is Oliver’s little brother. Ok, I think we are only really half joking. Dash really is Oliver’s little brother. The two are so awesome together. Dash let’s Oliver basically do anything to him. Cuddles, kisses and carrying him around in awkward positions are pretty much the norm around our house. They […]

David and I got way back. “High school days” way back. He’s actually one of my oldest friends that I still keep in contact with. But it had been multiple years since we were able to get our families together and that truly is a shame. So when they were in Canada over the Christmas […]

Christmas Day is such a fun time at our house. Santa is always very good to us. We have a lot to be thankful for at this time of year. This year we spent Christmas morning at home, just the three of us and then we headed up to Oliver’s Grandma and Grandpa’s house for […]

In early December, we celebrated both Oliver’s 7th birthday and Julia’s 9th birthday together with the rest of the Ruprecht clan. Since Oliver’s birthday is the end of November and Julia’s is the end of December, picking a date to celebrate somewhere in the middle of the month (before Christmas preparations get really crazy) is […]

Here are some photos from our annual trip to Downey’s Farm in North Brampton. We always have a blast visiting this place just before Hallowe’en and this year was no exception. Oliver had fun playing a bit of mini-golf, running on the hay bails, and challenging us to races on the large go-cart-type-tricycles. The afternoon […]

It was an unseasonably warm Thanksgiving this year and for the first time in my lifetime, we got to spend it out on the water. We took a quick day-trip up to visit with Oliver’s Nana & Grand Dad, spending the day cruising the open waterways for beautiful Autumn colours and crisp, fresh air. I […]

Our annual trip to Wasaga Beach as a family is always a great time. We pine for the beach a lot and we always leave wondering why we don’t make time to get up there more. We enjoyed the day eating junk food, building sand castles in the sun and swimming in the wonderfully warm […]

While we were out in Eastern Ontario, we were able to also visit our good friends Lindsay and Andy and their three AWESOME boys. We had a relaxing time lounging by the pool, visiting a cool market in downtown Kingston, and eating great food. It was exactly what we needed to end off the summer. […]

Reunions. They can either be really great or really crappy. This time around, we got the latter. A close high school friend of Dana’s invited us to a little cottage her family had rented. There were a few other high school friends going that Dana hadn’t seen in a while so it was a lot […]

It had been a long LONG while since we’d been to the ROM. We were desperate to find an outing to do as a family so we decided to head to downtown Toronto and visit the Museum. When we went, the had the Pompeii exhibition on which was really unearthing to see. We had a […]

It’s no secret that we love taking road-trips. Long or short, multiple day or just an afternoon, it’s a cheap way to get out and spend some time together as a family. We sometimes have a destination, others we just get in the car and drive. On this particular weekend, we decided to take a […]

Just a few black and white photos of Oliver as he lounges on the couch. This was probably one of our sleepy, laid-back Sundays where we enjoy hanging out as a family. Cheers! trevor.

Oliver really got into Pokemon last year. As he got towards the end of the school year, we picked up some cards for him he didn’t have and a new binder book to hold everything. He used to sit on the floor in the dining (aka drinking) room and sort his cards for hours. Here […]

As a surprise, Grandma threw a party for Grandpa’s 70th birthday with all his neighbourhood friends. He was completely surprised and I think he enjoyed the get together and all the attention. We had a wonderful afternoon full of catered lunch, cake and great conversation. Here are some photos we took that afternoon. Cheers! t.

Sometimes you have to just go for it. Oliver has been increasingly short with me when I point a camera at him. He’ll shy away; give some sort of goofy face or just plain look down and away from the lens. He’ll give me nothing. So when Oliver was dressing up in some of his […]
