Golden, BC


We made a recent trip to Golden, BC to go camping.  We went with three other couples and between the four families, there were 15 kids under the age of 10.  The girls had a ton of fun.


Grace playing on the beach :)


Our friend Amber and her daughter Rebecca. This nice couple who live in Golden offered to let us use their kayaks.




I fell in love with this tree!!!!!  I need one in my yard.



Ally took this picture while having lunch at the Tourist Centre in Kananaskis on the way home.  This picture was suppose to show how busy the Centre was.  There were trailers, cars and RV's everywhere!



We love the  mountains!!

Mother's Day Weekend

I had the best Mother's Day weekend ever!  I felt the need to extend Mother's Day to a full weekend :)  Friday night and most of Saturday, Warren slaved away building me the most beautiful raised garden beds (He also took a huge load to the dump, worked on the fence and shoveled compost out of the truck for me :)  I can't wait to plant asparagus, carrots, lettuce, peas, beans, zuchinni, strawberries and raspberries next week!  On the actual "big day,"  Warren made me eggs, toast and a smoothie.  We enjoyed all three meals on the patio.  My gift this year was two lounge chairs for the deck.  Ally was not as pleased with the gift as she always thinks jewellry is the right gift.  Smart girl.

We also bought the girls a trampoline and set it up this weekend.  Warren was an extremely busy guy!  So far we've only had two or three injuries on the trampoline.  Not bad for the first day.  The girls enjoyed playing "tag" with two soccer balls on the trampoline.  It's kinda big and kinda ugly but we think it will result in hours of entertainment!

April Fools 2012


This year I decided to trick Ally on April Fools Day.  I made her "jello" juice, yogurt and peach eggs and just 'ole regular toast.  Doesn't it look real?????
