Grant & I Play Tour Guides

Monday Grant & I decided to take the Sister Missionaries from our ward to Cathedral Grove, Little Qualicum Falls & Coombs. It was awesome playing tour guide for the day and sure reminded us what a beautiful part of the world we live in.

Gratitude for Good Friends

Grant & I went to the "Celebration of Life" of a good friend of my In-Laws yesterday. It was a true "Cowboy Funeral". Most were in their best westen get-up, cowboy hats & boots. We were slightly over-dressed. Fiddlers with a wash tub bass welcomed all. It was standing room only,a great testiment to the circle of friends Darryl had.
What a beautiful service, friends stories & slade shows. We came a with a new appreciation for a friend, we will truly miss. And the desire to make sure our friends know how much they mean to us right now.
We spent the rest of the afternoon with our dear friends. On the most beautiful farm on the Island. I am truly grateful for our treasured friends who are our extended family.

Proud Mama?!

We have always encouraged our kids to do well in school. So when Holly announced at the dinner table that she was acing a class I felt the instant rise of "Mom Pride" and I said "well good for you!, which class?" To which Holly said, with a smile "Jewellery Making"

Not to mock our great school system or lessen Holly's achievement ... But isn't that like getting an "A" in Play dough at Preschool
