A few pictures as the year comes to an end...

Aaron wearing his new winter hat that Mommy knitted!

Lilah with the Christmas dress she picked out, with matching doll's dress!

Declan being the happy little guy that he is...reminds me of his Dad when he was that age!

Borrowed this little video from Auntie Holly... sorry Cali, but it's just too cute!

California: Day 3

Celebrating Aaron's birthday a couple of days early!

Hard to believe that a year ago on Wednesday...little Aaron arrived...how time flies!

Happy Birthday Holly!

The birthday plans changed a few times however we managed to get a visit in with Nana!

Cali helped Auntie Holly unwrap her gifts

The familiar Milestones for lunch...

Happy Halloween!!

I found it!

A visit with Mom....she is just so happy with her 'baby'

Aunt Bertha passed away a couple of Sunday's ago...and I was remembering this very nice picture she sent last Christmas and darned if I could find it! While visiting Mom, I told her about Aunt Bertha and then suddenly recalled where the photo was...I had put it on Mom's wall by her bed!! So I borrowed Diane's technique of taking a picture of the picture...and here it is... another angel has her wings

Pumpkin Patch

It was a beautiful day to go hang out in the pumpkin patch with the family!

September ends...October begins!

Ian, Aaron & Katie having supper in their new home! Elliott & I drove the moving van down to California on Monday & Tuesday...and along with Ian, we got a lot of unpacking done before Katie & Aaron arrived on a Thursday afternoon. We wish them all the best as they start their new adventure in the US.

Holly & Elliott taking pictures today... we went out to Minter Gardens after a wondeful birthday lunch that Julie put on for me!

Julie, Cali & Greg put on a lovely party for my birthday today! Julie really enjoys putting on family get-togethers...although she had a busy week and was very tired, she made it a special day for me! Thanks Julie!



Lilah, Steph & Declan at the party...Aaron was working and couldn't be there...I thought this photo turned out really nice! Lilah sure looks like her Mom here!

Holly made some wonderful birthday cupcakes for the party! Thanks Holly! She also had a busy week...picked up Elliott & I at Bellingham last night and stayed up until midnight making these cupcakes!
