Weekend Fun!

Last weekend we had to go down to Canmore to a meeting we had to attend. It worked out really good for us to stay at Jon and Tiff's on Friday night and then go up to Canmore with them on Saturday morning. We went for a walk in the morning and stopped and played at the park,

Joshie had so much fun swinging with Grandpa higher and higher!!

 

Tiff and I took the kids swimming while Jon and Doug attended their meeting at Banff Gate, where we have our time share.

It is always so beautiful in the mountains!!

Ava is a little water beaver, she just loves to swim, and had do much fun paddling around on her tube.

 

 

 

Joshie hung out in the big pool with me most of the time and I loved the hugs he gave me as we swam around together in the pool.

 

 

Tiff relaxed at the pool as well! She is 4 months pregnant now, but she sure doesn't look like it!

She is sure a sweet mom, we're excited about the new little one coming.

 

 

 

 

 

It was so good to be with Jon and Tiff again...I wish we lived closer to them!




Mark went down with us and always enjoys giving hugs to Ava, they developed a close friendship when Mark was living in Calgary...cute friends!

 

 

 

Back at home Doug and I have been working on a gardening project at the cabin. We decided to start doing "square foot gardening".

We made four upright containers that have 8 square feet in each one. We have planted beets, beans, lettuce, peppers, brussel sprouts, kale, arugula, and tomatoes. Finally we put up our old dog run around it to protect it from the deer that would enjoy feasting on it out there!




On Sunday we had a birthday party BBQ for our dear friend Myrna and her family...

Brookie is checking out the size of her piece of cake.

 

 

This is Mryna and her boyfriend, Toni, he is now investigating the church and hopes to be baptised soon.

 

They had some fun playing foosball in the basement.

 

 

Cam, D and the kids came over for dinner, and Cam entertained Brynnlee in the hot tub. It was so funny to watch her dangling her feet in the water to finally going all the way under...she is cute!

 

 

Grandma was there, and Bruce Wilson...dad cooked us up some good burgers and potatoes!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our friends Ron and Eileen Hallett came over for the BBQ. Our kids always love visiting with them.

 

 

 

Ron woke up Colby so he could hold him, he is a baby lover! Luckily he has several grandchildren of his own!

He is a wonderful grandpa to our kids and grandkids!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lindsay is very close to having her baby now. After dinner, as D sat feeding Colby they talked about the "joys of pregnancy"...yes...it is worth it Lindsay!!

It was a wonderful weekend...full of family and friends....lots of visiting and good food!!
