Holidays!

On the August long weekend we went to Shuswap for a family gathering with the Stobbes. Eleven of the twelve great-grandchildren were there (with another one on the way) and Rachael was the second oldest - the youngest was a week and a half old! Here they all are with Oma and Opa.
We slept in a very small motel room. It had a double bed with a single bunk bed above it. The girls both wanted to sleep there so they squished it out for a few nights. Besides, it's way more fun sleeping together on a bunk bed!
Rachael hit it off great with her second-cousins Abby and Tim. You'd have thought they played together all the time!
And Kaitlyn found a friend her age - Tim's sister Meghan.


We went to the beach a couple of times and had yummy ice cream!
And we had campfires and roasted lots of marshmallows!
We had a fun weekend. Almost everyone was able to come.

We hope to see everyone again at the wedding at Christmas!

You need to take a trip to Home Depot in Abby. There are pictures of Darcy and the girls in front of the house they built on Canada Day. The pictures are on a bulletin board behind the checkout counters.
