La Belle Province!!!

We had a wonderful time on our trip to Montreal!  The wedding was exquisite!  It probably rivaled Will & Kate's!  The kids had so much fun - they both danced the night away till 1 am!  Mom and Dad had lots of fun too!  There were at least 3 other kids tables so there was no need for us to entertain them!  Merci Paul and Kat!  It was a wonderful night out!

Our friends from Moncton drove in so we spent Sunday afternoon and Monday with them!  The kids haven't seen each other for 2 years, but when we get together they always seem to click!  We saw the Biodome and enjoyed our visit!  Thanks for making the drive to Montreal!

We also had the pleasure of having Sylvie join us for dinner!  She originates from Quebec City area and spent at least 10 years living here!  We have not seen her for about  7 years!  It was like we were together yesterday!  Thanks for taking time to join us!

It's been a week of laundry and resting for me!  CancerCare next week for port care and blood work!

Thanks for keeping us in mind and thanks for all the prayer support that we have been receiving!

Off to the playground with the kids!

Love,

111 & 41.....

That would be my hemogloubin and platelets!  Must be all the red meat I have been eating - BBQ season!

Sorry that I have been slow on updating the blog - but I am feeling better and my gardens, flower beds, kids and Doug all needed some TLC!  We spend a great Canada Day Weekend at Bird River.  Jen and I slept through the fireworks while Doug and Kris saw the display across the River from us!  It apparantly was quite nice!

The kids both got great report cards despite all the things going on this past 7 months.  I am so very proud of them both and a big thanks to all their teachers! 

Our summer plans include a trip to Montreal for Doug's cousins wedding - just got the OK today from CancerCare to go!  At my age who knew that I would need "permission" to travel!  My hair is coming in and I am going hatless.  My true colour is revealed!  I'm thinking of going platnium - something I always wanted to do!

I feel so blessed to have so many people supporting us and praying for our entire family.  Thank you all!

Have a safe and happy summer after the very long winter!

Love,
K and gang
