School started up again; the last leg before the end of the school year. These two share the same shirts and love joining their mums at the mall; especially when it involves ice-cream!!
Spirit week this year was the Peter Pan theme. So I got some remnant material from the second hand store and whipped up these three shirts!
And just two weeks after I left Australia, Alex, Teresa and Connor visited North America!
Enjoying gourmet dinner with Rick and Jan!
We spent some time at the 'beach' at Birch Bay. The kids loved exploring under the rocks and playing with the washed up timber. And we enjoyed sitting and chatting!
The night before their departure we had a farewell dinner at White Spot!
And then we had another visitor; nephew Eric!
We enjoy his organ playing too!
We went for a hike up Teapot Hill; it was interesting for the kids to spot teapots and cups people have hung or placed in trees or in the bushes along the hike!
So these are all the kids.....
And these are the mums!
We have a new kid on the block: Brad vanwoudenberg! Welcome to the family Brad!
Sunday night dinner at Silver Lake with friends!
Fishing off the pontoon boat!
The next trip was to Ontario. Jan and myself went together as we both have a sibling there. Jan has her sister Leanne and I have my brother Alex. So in mid May we boarded WestJet at 6 in the morning for the trip across. As we flew over, we managed to get a shot of both our houses! Our place is on the bottom right hand corner.
Waiting in Calgary!
We arrived and enjoyed getting to know one another and catch up on the latest!
It didn't take long for Jackson to warm up either!
An evening stroll and we came across a guy who had these birds as pets!
The following day we drove to Toronto and boarded the ferry to tour Toronto Island!
Beautiful island along with spectacular views!
As predicted, Jackson had a blowout! It took the 4 of us to change and clean him!
Time for a pit stop and coffee!
Jackson eyeing off the jewelry!
CN Tower
Not sure what's going on here but it looks like Steve and Rick are going in to autocare!
View from Hamilton Mountain! Very ominous!
Lunch with Megan's sister Tanya!
Visiting the Theological College
The day before departure I went to Leanne's and we enjoyed a morning out!
And then it was time to go home again! We had a great time and are thankful we could do this!
Thanks for looking again!
