Thanksgiving 2014

After returning from Mexico our plan was to have a bunch of friends and family over to help us celebrate our anniversary.  Shortly before leaving for Mexico we found out my sister & husband & my mom & dad were hoping to come help us celebrate as well.  Very exciting indeed - did not think we would get more family visiting from Ontario since many of them had just been in August for the wedding.  And little did they realize it was also our Thanksgiving - so instead of a quiet day without visitors we ended up with a nice group around the table for turkey dinner.


Trip to Mexico - November 2014

On November 18th, 2014 it was our 25th anniversary - and we are very thankful to God for the many blessings over the years.   We decided it was a great excuse to take a trip somewhere together and so we ended up going to Cancun, Mexico.  Seldom do we go with just the two of us - and it was a treat to just relax in the sun.  The accommodations were amazing and the weather was great as well.  Here are only a few photos - the rest are on Henry's phone.  Some day you might see more...




Vincent turns 4!! A day in his life...

Here are some random photos of Vincent these last few months.  I think he will be an actor or entertainer - he certainly knows how to pose and definitely keeps us laughing!  Vince also turned 4 on October 15th - he had a few kids over for his birthday party.







A visit from the Caver's

So a bit of catch-up on the blog again...  This past September Jake's Mom and Dad visited us for a day (Sunday).  It was a nice day and we decided that after church a trip up Mt. Baker sounded like a great idea.  We love having visitors because it gives us an excuse to go up - typically we just admire it in the background. We hiked (nothing too strenuous) and the view was amazing - an amazing handiwork of God.  We wrapped up our visit with a picnic dinner.  We're looking forward to another excuse to take them to a beautiful spot in the Pacific Northwest!
