Today was a great day. The day is Friday, the day of several firsts in my family here in Yellowknife which I feel are blog worth. ^_^

Today was the day I have taken the first step of becoming an outdoor enthusiast. Dressed in a jogging outfit, I went outside on my own (well with my son Jesse on the stroller) and walked and ran for about 90 minutes. It was a good feeling to finally embrace this new lifestyle.

I made homeburgers for the first time! It was yummy! The coleslaw salad made it extra special. I find that being here in Yellowknife has waken up the resourceful side of me.

Janvier baked his first muffins and they were delicious. I told him I love your chocolate muffins in which he replied,"No mommy, it's banana. The main ingredient is banana." Boy, my baby is growing up moment by moment.

Justin attended a birthday party here in Yellowknife for the first time. It was a girl named Mia who turns 8 years old today. It was fun he said.

Oh, the best part of today was meeting Janvier's new friend Tyler. Tyler is an American boy from Idaho. He seems to be a good kid. Janvier said that he and Tyler are planning to write a story for their drama class. He said that one day, he and Tyler are going to make a movie. Janvier is excited for all the fun things they will be doing together. And I am excited too.
