Tofino 2018

We went up to Tofino British Columbia for Darrell’s Grandad’s 90th birthday party in early July. We had so much fun and there were a lot of family members around. It was a beautiful trip and Darrell wants to go back so we can wander around some more.

The trip up there was long because we left early in the morning after the 4th of July. But either way, we made it. We caravanned up with Darrell’s sister and uncle. It was fun until Morgan threw up about 30 minutes outside of Tofino. The roads were curvy and we think he has a bit of car sickness on curvy roads. 🙁

It was a beautiful location and there were amazing views every where you walked.

We spent a lot of time with the family while we were there.

We even spent time down at the beach.

And of course, we got a family picture on the beach. I even had to write Pixel’s name and include him in a small way. 🙂

July 2018

We had a busy July with Grandad’s 90th birthday in Tofino, Ice Caves hike, a baseball game, among other things. But the little moments are just as special.

Ducks!

On June 14th, we added more members to our brood. Darrell got 4 ducks. The ducklings were hatched on June 11, 2018 and then shipped to us. Darrell and the boys prepped all the stuff for the brooder for the girls and then they worked hard on getting a house and pen together for them outside. They were super cute and little when we got them.

Then they got a bit bigger through the month.

So with the fact that the ducks were getting bigger, the rush was on to finish the pen. The boys helped build it and had a lot of fun doing it. I am just excited that they are now out of the garage and in the backyard.

We had a busy June. We had visits from Grandma and Grammy, we headed to the zoo a few times, Edward got his own library card, we spent a lot of time reading, lots of time at parks, and we had a lot of just family time. Oh yeah, and Morgan started swim lessons! They are just parent and me, but he has been super excited and was always trying to get in the water when it was brother’s turn. He won’t be able to do on his own lessons until he is about 3.

Edward had his last day of Preschool on June 14th. He learned all sorts of things this year and is bounds ahead of where he was last year. I am sooo proud of this boy and love seeing how much he loves reading and doing math. They are definitely his strong points. He is looking forward to next year when he continues at Serene Montessori for his Kindergarten year.

 

On June 16th, there was a school picnic at a local playground. Edward got to see his best friend, Azylea, and he got to play with all sorts of kids. We got some photos of him with his teachers, Mrs. Judy, Mrs. Laurel, and Mr. Bob.
