Family visit

Paul and Lucille visited us this weekend on their way to Toronto. They showed up in a convertible which made the visit tons of fun! We did our regular weekend stuff including listening to the band practice, horseback riding, a trip to the farmer's market, dinner at Pablo's and a few round of bananagrams and cards.

Ice Cream Social

Joe and Leah

Emma and Elisabeth

Last night we went to the Red Cedar ice cream social. We found out that Joe will be in Mrs. Willliams' first grade class with his friends Tri and Leah. They three will spend much of the day in Mrs. Olance's class but will go to the first grade class for part of each day. Joe's friend Tim will also begin school at Red Cedar this year. Emma had fun playing with Tim's sister Elisabeth on the playground.
