So I’ve been looking through our vacation pictures, trying to decide which of the thousand to upload. Not an easy task. And tonight I took some time to look through some older pictures on the computer as well. It’s funny. Last summer I was really unhappy with my body because I could tell I was [...]
I love this boy. We are terribly unphotogenic. But we do love to have fun. This was our awkward, overdone “Sears” pose — thus the hands. Good times.
We spent 10 days of our holiday in Summerland visiting with Marc’s family. It was so good to see everyone. And our time there was extremely relaxing, very [...]
After 22 days and over 5,300 kilometres, we’re back in Prince Albert. There is much to tell, but for now this (which you can click on to make bigger):
I took my kids to the beach on my own yesterday at supper time. We ate ham, cheese, and crackers on the beach. And an entire bag of animal crackers. They’re good. I forgot the bottle of water on the kitchen counter. But luckily it wasn’t too hot by that time, so no one got [...]
Yesterday I bought a dress. My sister-in-law, who is a billion times more girlie than I am (though, that doesn’t take much with me), is trying to get me into dresses. And in the +30 heat, I’m beginning to be less opposed to summer dresses (especially once I found out that I actually don’t have [...]
We’ve been in Summerland at Marc’s parents’ place since Friday now. We made it just a day before they closed the highway we needed to take to get here, because of the West Kelowna fires which are still burning. So strange to be sitting here, enjoying our holiday, going to the beach everyday, and 40 [...]
“Please don’t ever make Marc a pastor in a big city.”
We whipped down the Coquihala from Kamloops today. We made great time. The kids slept. It was perfect. Then we got just passed Langley on our way to my brother’s place in Vancouver. There was an accident on the bridge we needed to go on. [...]
Here I sit in my uncle’s house in Calgary. My uncle, aunt, their son, and Marc and the kids are at the zoo. I’m here. Because I’m trying to fight off the cold that has hit me. We are on Day 3 of our vacation.
It was inevitable. I’ve been going hard since we got back [...]
Blogging has been on the back-burner lately. Or at least the kind of blogging that takes any thought effort besides rehashing the events of the day. Sorry about that. I’m still growing and learning new things (probably more now than ever), just in the context of extreme busyness and always on the verge of total [...]
Wasn’t much of a patriotic day today around these parts. We started the day with a meeting with the real estate agent we’ve hired. She was supposed to come yesterday. Besides spending all day Monday (and hiring a babysitter to come over to the house so I could get things done) getting the house completely [...]
