Sunday on Saltspring

We had the opportunity to go over to Saltspring Island for church on Sunday. It was so very wonderful for so many reasons. It was my first Sunday back since getting sick, the weather was beautiful, the ferry ride was so very exciting for the kids, our dear friends baby was blessed another baptized, and we visited the Moore's for the first time since they moved over there. (Better late than never, I guess) It was a great day filled with many, many loved ones and will always be a special memory.

Say Cheese!

Trying to get four kids all to sit still and smile at the same time is just as hard as it sounds. I guess that is what makes the memory though. When I look at these pictures I will always remember how silly Tate was being and how much I love him for it!

Sleeping on the stairs

After watching conference on Sunday we were able to go to Sidney and visit with some family. The kids had a wonderful time as always. They love their cousins. We left a little late so of course everyone feel asleep on the way home. When that happens Darren usually carries them in one by one while I tuck them in bed one by one. When I had Tate and Noelle tucked in I called down the stairs for Bergen and Emma. No one answered. I looked down the stairwell and this is what I saw. They were so sound asleep that I think we could have left them there and they would have slept all night. Nothing feels better than a good sleep after a really fun day!
