2008-02-20/DSC_0013 The lunar eclipse on Feb 20. It's a bit blurry, but it was a cold night and I had trouble getting a really good focus. Besides, it's hard to take decent pictures at night, and I didn't have my 300mm lens on me at the time.
2008-03-09/DSC_0021 The backyard, with freshly fallen snow! This was the big snowfall at the beginning of March. This was a record year for snow in Toronto.
2008-03-09/DSC_0027 Matthew relaxing in the lawn chair. It really wasn't that cold, although it might look like it. Well, it wasn't cold by Canadian standards, anyway.
2008-03-09/DSC_0034 David breaking off icicles from the back window.
2008-03-09/DSC_0036 And David has created a makeshift toy gun out of the icicle he broke off from the window. I think there's an important lesson here for those parents who refuse to buy toy guns in the hope that their boys won't play with them.
2008-03-09/DSC_0039 The playset and slide, all covered with snow.
2008-03-09/DSC_0042 The boys getting ready to slide. The icicle gun actually looks surprisingly good, doesn't it?
2008-03-09/DSC_0052 David trying to force his way down the slide despite the snow obstruction. Just look at that crazed smile; David always wears his emotions on his sleeve.
2008-03-09/DSC_0062 Matthew's turn!
2008-03-09/DSC_0064 David taking a rest.
2008-03-09/DSC_0066 Still resting ...
2008-03-09/DSC_0069 David trying to make his way around the side of the house.
2008-03-09/DSC_0072 Oh yeah ... now we have to shovel this mess.
2008-03-09/DSC_0079 At least the fire department can still reach the hydrant.
2008-06-07/DSC_0025 David playing at a piano recital thrown by his "Music for Young Children" group.
2008-06-07/DSC_0027 And here's David with the rest of his class.
