Yesterday...





Yesterday was a great day...a fabulous day...a wonderful day! We went to Drumheller. It may not sound that glorious to you, but to someone (me) who has kinda been couped up at home, doing the same thing day after day after day...any sort of change was welcomed and so nice! It was a spontaneous sort of decision (all the better sometimes) and we ended up touring the Royal Tyrell museum and going to the Hoo Doos just outside Drumheller for a little bit. My body surprised and amazed me at how well it coped with the slow paced walking. It was so nice for our family to get out and do something like that together....I loved every minute of it!! Then that evening I joined 12 other women in my first bible study called "Listening to God" and it was great. Since Wes is home in the evenings consistently I am so blessed to be able to start this and am excited about what I am going to learn. Thank you Lord Jesus for providing, in every little detail, just what we need.

Our Canada Day!





Happy Canada Day! Today was a beautiful day here in Red Deer. I always love Canada Day, and love getting the boys matching t-shirts and taking their photos (imagine that). I wasn't able to get a decent group photo of the boys together, but did manage to take some of each of them. Since I wasn't feeling well enough for a lot of walking (we had wanted to go for a weiner roast at the park) we ended up having a little picnic in our backyard. Do you know how much I love our back yard??? So, Wes' parents brought most of the food over and we had a picnic lunch. Wes filled the little pool with water, which Asher spent most of his time in. Our nephew Trysten is here visiting us so he was able to enjoy the day with us as well. Later on we went to my parents for a wonderful supper. I am so thankful for our wonderful country and all the freedom we have! Thank you Lord for giving us such a wonderful place to live and call home.
