Lisa's Baby Shower!

Boy or Girl?

Isn't she Beautiful?

Lisa said she had a wonderful time at her shower on Thursday evening and enjoyed the "surprises" that she received from Family and friends from far away.

The hostess has the ladies paint Onesies for lisa to take with her.

What a fun idea!

On her way to Nepal!!!!

I will lift up my eyes to the mountains;

From where shall my help come?

My help comes from the Lord,

Who made Heaven and earth.

He will not allow your foot to slip;

He who keeps you will not slumber…

The Lord is your keeper; 

The Lord is your shade on your right hand. 

The sun will not smite you by day, 

nor the moon by night. 

The Lord will protect you from all evil. 

He will keep your soul. 

The Lord will guide your going out and your coming in 

From this time forth and forever.

Psalms 121

Date Night!

A few months ago we discovered that our local theatre shows Classic Movies now and then. At that time we saw Gone with the Wind. It was so fun to see it on the big screen. 

With the technology now-a-days, they can make the picture look really good. It even seemed like the acting was better.....go figure!

Last night we went to see Casablanca. Once again we enjoyed it immensely. And it is only $6.00 which really takes us back in time. Popcorn still costs an arm and a leg, but doesn't it make the movie so much better with movie popcorn?

Next month is The Sound of Music ..... Can't wait!!!!

Niagara Falls

This has been quite a record breaking winter!

We are told that the Great Lakes are 98% frozen.

Lake Ontario must be in the 2% because when we drove

to Niagara Falls on Friday afternoon, only the shore line was frozen.

 

 

We have been hearing that Niagara Falls was frozen as well,

 and we wanted to see it before the "warm" weather comes.

These pictures do not do it justice and we didn't get there until after dark, but

it certainly was very beautiful.

 

 

 This is the American Falls.

Horseshoe Falls, (Canadian side), still had a lot of water falling over.

 

 

This is the Niagara River looking over to the US side.

Completely frozen over.

It was all quite amazing!

 

We hope to see it again before the warm weather come, but then again.....

it is Maple Syrup time!

 

 

WOW is it March already?

My how time has flown by since the Fall up-date. The past few months have been our "Quiet Season" at camp and we have had some wonderful times traveling and being with family. I have enjoyed spending time at home and getting things caught up before the "Busy Season" starts up again. Here are some highlights:

Thanksgiving in Florida

Disneyworlds Magic Kingdom

Sisters at Disney World's Magic Kingdom

Thanksgiving Morning "Turkey Trot" 

Thanksgiving Dinner!

Sisters at the beach. Atlantic Ocean

Christmas in Oregon

Sisters at the beach. Pacific Ocean

  

Our Family!

We were able to take a trip to Grass Valley. 

Wonderful to spend time with family.

It is hard to believe that we are already two months into the new year. I will try and do better at keeping up on this blog. We are excited to see what 2015 brings. Another College Graduation for one thing! Stay tuned, May will be here before we know it. 

Fall in Guelph

These were taken a month ago. It looks quite different now. We had a beautiful fall and now the trees are almost bare. We had our first dusting of snow yesterday and, although it is sunny and clear, it is COLD!!

Fall also brings a little slower pace for us, and we are feeling rested and "caught up" from the summer. We are looking forward to the Holiday Season and seeing family and friends over the next couple of months. We have so much to be Thankful for.
