Pictures from Canadia

These are from our recent trip to Canada.
















I thought these pictures were a little on the weird side because of how they were taken at night but also kinda cool.


















The kids thought it was pretty fun to sleep in a hotel.


































In the car....













































The second day we had a picnic under a shelter, while it poured down rain.

























































And then afterwards played on the soaking wet playground.






















































That evening Daddy treated us to dinner in the hotel's restaurant and it was really good.





















The next day, crossing the lake by ferry...








































And hiking up to see a lighthouse.





















Etc.















































The beautiful Kootenai lake.

Stuff and things

Whew... life is a crazy thing! So after almost two months of company and a whirlwind trip to Canada (thank you sooo very much Daddy!), we got to this Monday and I felt totally wiped out!
I think my body finally decided it could relax, plus my cold tried to come back, so I spent Monday and Tuesday sleeping way more than normal and now I feel mostly better.
It is so nice to have just us around (not that we didn't enjoy our company!) doing normal things and getting back into a routine.
I've been able to finish some books and start some new ones, get a little more involved with the boards and committees I'm on, and do Daddy things (most important!).
So now that you are bored I think I'll end this post.

Camping pictures. Almost a month old now!

On a hike we took...















There was a burn ban, so we roasted marshmallows over the propane stove.















Dylan, showing me his marshmallow stick, and still wearing his bike helmet.



















Fred, trying to keep up with us after getting the raft which blew off the top of the van















Harrison with a s'more















Here are the kids again on that boulder...















Noelle looks like she's yelling, "YEAAAAHH!"















Sunday morning, sitting around about to worship















Etc,















Etc,















Grandpa & Grandma Workman...















Timothy doesn't look too happy...

Well...

here goes nothing! We'll see if co-blogging produces more posts than normal.
