What we have been up to this summer...



A little surgery to keep things interesting...





Spending time with friends at the lake





Miah got her ear's pierced! She was so proud of herself!





This summer we discovered Geocaching. What fun that has been for the girls. It has made hiking lots of fun and Miah gets so excited to "look for treasure." The above photo is a cache that we found in Washington state that was in the shape of a hand. The girls laughed so hard when they found it, screaming "It's a hand!" I think it took them a moment or two to realize that it was not a real hand, but a cache container.





First horseback riding lesson





We spent a weekend in Seattle and met up with some friends at the aquarium. We had a great time and then walked to Pike Place Market to do a little shopping. It was very busy as a very large cruise ship was docked for the afternoon. We managed to find a pretty new Chinese dress for Miah for Chinese New Years and took in the fun at the Pike Place Fish Market. The girls thought it was fun watching the fish fly through the air.





In August, Mackenzie performed with the Bumbershoot Children's Theatre. She had a blast. They practiced for only 5 weeks and put on an amazing show! She has high hopes of acting again this fall with another local theatre group.

Happy 4th Birthday Miah













Today we celebrated Miah's 4th birthday with a Hello Kitty party. She was so excited this morning that her big day had finally arrived. I am still shocked that she is already four years old! Happy Birthday Miss Miah! We love you very much!

Green Bay Bible Camp















This weekend we had our first ever family camp experience at Green Bay Bible camp here on Okanagan Lake. The weather was a bit cool, but the kids still had so much fun! Miah loves the water! Mackenzie was super excited to try "surfing"...well as close as she will get for sometime. She has great aspirations after watching the movie Soul Surfer.
