21 FEBRUARY 2011: day 52 (week 8)

it's FAMILY DAY!!! Family Day is observed in the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Ontario and Saskatchewan on the third Monday of February. this holiday celebrates the importance of families and family life to people and their communities.

after lunch we went to a recreation center where there was 'free skate' from 2-4 pm. there weren't boards around the rink to hold on to so i was holding isabelle while she skated around. rafael was right behind us ready to grab us in case he couldn't balance. but eventually i was able to let go and they skated slowly.





after skating, we went to swim at my friend's condominium.


i was really impressed with my friend's daughter who is only 3 years old...she is so brave in the pool!


then we (ronald's family and us) decided to have a family day dinner at this japanese restaurant ronald recommended. i have to say it is the best restaurant i have been (but of course i haven't been in too many...hehehe). this resto is on top of my list!!! love love love it!
