Visiting and a field trip!

We had some beautiful weather this week so we made the most of the sunny weather.

Our lovely green soccer field got ploughed up this week! Corn will be planted very soon and our view will change to a cornfield. 

On Tuesday we visited with Miss Betty who is blind. We enjoyed a walk to Lynden Bakery and had a yummy lunch; and an ice-cream at Edaleen was a 'cool' way to end our day! Taleesha had bubblegum flavor and Shantel, raspberry. They were very proud of their coloured lips! 

Betty's dog, Bethers loved the freedom of being off the leash and 'off duty' with the girls around and loved playing with them. Bethers is a black poodle and is very attached to Betty. It was amazing to watch her 'lead' Betty around and stop for kerbs, sidewalks and even stopping at a car about to reverse out of a driveway. But like any dog, another dog is a bit of a distraction even when on harness and on duty!!

Do you love my blue lips?

I have pink lips but it's a bit hard to see....

Wednesday was the kindergarten's final field trip. We headed to Larrabee National Park about 40 minutes drive way and headed for the 'beach' to search for the little creatures that live by the sea. The beach here means lots of stones and pebbles, but no yellow sand! The kids were rewarded with lots of sea life. We saw huge starfish, crabs both small and big, sea snails, and lots of shells. There was rocks and tide pools so the kids all wore boats and took buckets to collect their treasures. After a class group photo, we headed back up to the picnic area for some lunch and games. It was a really enjoyable outing and wonderful to see God's handiwork even down by the sea.

Sisters!

This week is shaping up to be reasonably busy again. This week it's my turn to help with school cleaning, Tuesday is our final ladies bible study meeting which will be followed by a picnic in the park, and Saturday we hope to attend the Sound of Music put on by some members of our church here and in the Fraser Valley. Practising for this began already last October/November so everyone is super excited it's almost here! A lot of work has gone into this production and it promises to be a very good show!

Well, that's it from us. Thanks for looking!
