My (Cal's) First Post

Well, Tracy has had this going for over 2 years now and I've always thought about posting on here so I figured now was as good a time as ever.

Wow, where to start - I guess I could start with my 3 favorite people as they are my life. Tracy is continuing to be a fantastic wife and mother, not sure how she does it as it gets pretty busy during the day at our place. With Blake always on the go, whether it be with trains or books or his vivid imagination that in itself is a full-time job. Just trying to get Em into her regular naps is a challenge I'm sure. By the way they are both doing awesome! Like I said earlier Blake is pretty busy, he is learning so much every minute of every day. He is becoming quite the little boy and his imagination is absolutely hilarious. Now he doesn't just repeat things but he puts his own little spin on our questions. For instance I asked him "What does the lawnmower do?" - and his response was "make noise". Too funny. Emerson is growing more and more now she is quite smiley when I see her. I usually see her just before I leave for work and than when I get home I see her quite a bit. It's nice as Blake usually tries to include her in his day as well. Even letting her hold some of his Mr. Potatohead pieces as he assembles his latest masterpiece.

This weekend we have our annual company hockey tournament. I haven't played in the last couple (long story), but am looking forward to it. I play with a bunch of guys who are pretty good, older but pretty good. Previously we had won probably 4 out of 7 times so it is competitive. I'm still trying to keep up with the running. I entered the Canada Day Road Race on July 1st, 15 Km to do and haven't really trained for it yet but will need to start very soon. I'm also want to attempt another half marathon this year, maybe late summer or in the fall. I'll keep you posted.

First camping trip was a success but now we won't be going until the 3rd weekend in June. I think we will go to Cross Lake with Brad and Julie and the boys. The boys always have fun and by next year Em will be keeping up to them. July we will be going to Sask with the trailer for the Smith reunion.

I am also going to be starting my own blog, I did have calcameron.blogspot.com but wanted something more catchy. It's more to capture my running adventures and training. Hopefully it won't be this long between posts again.
