One Day at Home

Our arrival in Vancouver didn’t exactly go smoothly. We got a shuttle that was willing to drop us off at the right hotel although it wasn’t supposed to head there, so that was great. But at 11:00 pm when it’s 3 hours later for us with the time change, it’s really not wonderful when the truck wouldn’t start. Dead battery. The restaurant at the hotel was still open and an employee had booster cables, but they were not big enough. Finally a fantastic employee called BCAA for us and a tow truck driver boosted the engine. 
Our own bed was wonderful, but after only a few hours we got up to get the kids off to school. Elise was thrilled with her Mexican giraffe. Luke and Tonisha got hats and Caleb and Dad got shirts. 
The kids had school skating in Sardis mid-morning, so Tonisha, Hazel and I went to join them. Super fun!

National Day of Truth and Reconciliation

Deciding that Truth and Reconciliation were really not our issue, we went to PG to enjoy a long weekend with Jared’s family. Even Caleb came along! The men went to work tackling the winter wood supple while we ladies ran the home front. I did get to try the log splitter, but Luke, with his broken arm, was very busy with that job when he wasn’t driving the tractor. By the end of the day, the logs were beautifully stacked. Caleb had this responsibility and did a great job.

Campground map- very helpful  Dad and I snuck off for one walk together in the week. It was fun! And beautiful.  Family photo❤️ The whole group! It was wonderful to camp together.  Val doing paddleboard headstands. Impressive! The kayaks were well used.  The Nature House always had interesting things for Elise, plus some neat programs. Most of us went to one on bears.  Joshua is so loved! Uncle Luke absolutely loves being an uncle.
