A visit with the family in Vancouver

We went down to Mum and Dad's in Vancouver for our thanksgiving weekend. While there we had a nice get-together at Darryl and Stacey's place with friends and kids everywhere! On the SUnday Lauren, Brian and family as well as my uncle Paul and Monique had a wonderful dinner at Mum and Dad's! Unfortunatly I didn't take many photos, too much fun I guess!

Here is Grace taking a rest from sweeping our floor crawling everywhere. She's very effective at getting all the pet hair to stick to her, a pet-hair-magnet if you will!

Grace's chicken outfit, ready for Halloween! Bok-bok-bok-bok!


We had a great visit from Nana and Grandpa Henry for the weekend.

"Me? Cute? Well okay, if you say so!"

Best friends? I think so! Sophie is so good with Grace, she treats her like her own pup! Sadly it is the closest Sophie will ever be to actual mothering, and it shows she would have been a good one if given the chance! She allows Grace to climb all over her. Grace pokes her in the eyes and pulls on her soft, silky ears and all Sophie does is grins and bare it. A true friend she is indeed.

Camping at Lodgepole Lake

Another fine camping trip at Lodgepole except for the fact that alot of the trees are cut down due to the pine beetle epidemic. We camped at one of the few remaining sites with trees! Apart from that it's still a beautiful spot.

Camping at Lodgepole Lake

Finding another "Geocache" under a tree. In all we took 4 AA batteries (for the camera) and a small flash light. We left a golf ball, lighter, Canadain tire money and some hand cream.

Geocache number 1 was under the helicopter pad.
On our way up the mountain to find the Geocaches we had to stop numerous times to get our bearings. Worth noting it had not been very long since the wild fire that scorched the trees behind us.

There were cows wandering their way through our campsite in the morning.

Our bedroom had a lake front view!

Now we have to lower the matress since she can stand up in her crib!
