My New Favorite Place

Riley was home from school Thursday and Friday with Scarlet Fever (I know, who gets that anymore?!?!?); he's fine now due to antibiotics, but it did put Rebecca behind on picking up the necessities.  This was good news for me because the last supermarket on my list to visit, Metro, has been calling my name for some time now.  Metro is the place whose circular ads I've been posting, so you can only imagine my excitement at finally being able to make the trip.  Below are several captioned pictures.  Needless to say, it was quite the spot.  Much like a discount / bulk warehouse in the states, it had everything a growing boy needs when it comes to the BBQ, including half pigs hanging up and ready for purchase.

After we dropped mom and Ro off for a nap, the boys and I set about on our quest to put together a home gym / workout center for the garage.  The garage is in the basement and without a car, lawnmower, crap to hold more crap, etc., it looks quite barren.  Riley has really taken to Taekwando classes and Reid enjoyed himself so much at the track and field day that I figured it was time we invested in some workout equipment at the house.  Also, they already mess with each other so much that I'm fearing the future when testosterone runs rampant.  Future pictures of workouts will come (I promise I'll keep the shirt on)!

Now that's a display!  The Dragon Boat Festival is coming up, more on that later.

These are a few of my favorite things!

Reid found the pig fat.

By now the others had abandoned Riley and me.  Here he is with a sting ray, barb still attached.
