We're looking forward to being at Ronald McDonald House again on August 11th. We're bringing our mechanical bull & other inflatables for their block party! The last time we were there was to visit the Baskill family.
Hailey on Misty
Karey & Sara on Annie
For Sara, leading Annie around is just as exciting as riding!
Hailey's first Gymkhana with Dad and one of her friends on Canada Day.
Joel & Hailey with their ribbons
Joel on Annie, getting her to lay down.
Hospital check ups also mean a stop at the Beach play area! (this is from mid July.)
Sara's last check up on July 30th went so well, and she's doing great. We're still having to do blood work once a week, and she's managing ok with that.
Auntie Patsy stopped by for the day, it was so wonderful to spend time with her!
We love you Uncle Lawrence & Auntie Patsy!
The view pulling out of our driveway
Soaking our feet in the river to cool off.
Katie & Sara with TJ :)
Hailey & Sara full of mud after making a river & lake in the garden! Good times! They don't look that dirty, but both of them were sitting in the mud!
We had a garage sale on July 27th, and the girls & their friends had a bake sale.
Sara was just as good at selling them, as she was eating them!
We started our trip to Minot, North Dakota early Tuesday morning to buy a different mechanical bull. With a stop at the Stollery for Sara's transplant clinic which included advice from the Dr. Dinos. She had blood work, Echo, ECG, height (she grew another cm!), weight, and then we were off to Lloydminster to sell the mechanical bull.
Across the border with no issues, even without Joel's passport! (it had expired)
Our drive was very tiring, so Sara had a nap with Dad.
We drove by some beautiful places. Many grain fields, wheat, barley, oats, flax, corn, and canola. We saw many pump jacks, flares, old and new grain elevators. The big skies, river valleys and rolling hills were spectacular. "The heavens declare the Glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands." Psalm 19:1
Welcome to Minot!
We loved the colours of the fields; the big drag line and the many tractors & farming equipment that we passed along the way.
We had so much fun with our mechanical bull last night with friends. It was great to set it up & try it out. Happy 13th Birthday Hayden, wish I had a picture of you on the bull!
Here's Bethany on the bull.
Come out and see us at PV Days in Evansburg on August 10th!
Hailey's ride
Summer here is spent outside in the sunshine!
Hopefully we'll get more time outside if there's less rain in August!
A great way to stay hydrated!
We're having such a great summer, we don't want it to end!
