We've been traveling down memory lane for a long time now. I thought it'd be nice to blog about the present for a change. Things are crazy around our house lately. We have been renovating the house. We got our permits approved and got started with the demolition in July of last year. What exactly are we doing, you ask? Well....renovating!!
It has taken it us a lot longer than we had hoped to finish, and it doesn't help that our plans have been tweaked and changed all along the way either. Regardless of the craziness we have had a wonderful few months. We had our Webster reunion again in July. This time we went to a B&B in Mountain View. Thanks to the Jim Steeds for all their hard work! It was the perfect place for the reunion. We had this big cabin and another smaller one. We played games, hiked, went shooting, went golfing, had a talent night, had a baby shower for the twins, went for ice cream, had lots of bonfires, went canoeing, ate LOTS of food, and all the adults did a session at the temple. It was sooo much fun!!
Here's the whole clan! See how happy we all are?
The rest of the summer was fun also. Maren and Blake did well with swim club again this year. Blake brought home quite a few ribbons. They are improving every year.
The kids started school in September and Micah was especially excited to start Preschool. Evy is doing well in Mr D's class in Grade 2. Blake is in Grade 5 this year, and Maren has made the leap to JR HIGH! I still can't believe it. She is a good student and does well in her classes...except for social...but we're working on it. She is enjoying jr high, especially things like Home Ec and Shop and all the new things she's learning in Gym. It was an adjustment to have so many different teachers, lockers etc. but she has adjusted well and is all about having fun with her friends!
In October we drove out to Vancouver for Cindy's wedding . It was beautiful! She was a lovely bride and the wedding and reception were wonderful. She is doing well and loving married life. We are always happy for excuses to be with family and this time was no different. Here's a shot of the happy couple.
In November the Twins were born! Yaaaay! Dan and Andrea waited a long time for these 2 cute little blessings. I think I my be addicted to them.
