Summer is over! It was full and so much fun. Beginning of summer the girls were in swim lessons at the crofton outdoor pool. They both had there best friends in there lessons and so it was basically one on one. They both passed and had so much fun. Definitely will be doing that again next summer, even though it was every day for 2 weeks. The first 2 weeks of summer were gorgeous and almost every day after lessons we stayed for public swim, so Amara had her first time in the pool and loved every moment!

| We got our fourth and *final* boat... and she is a beauty! It is a boat Steve doesn't have to put any extra time or money into it and it has a bunch of extra bells and whistles. We are very happy with it and it has been awesome taking out all our visitors on the water and showing them islands! |
 |
| My mom, dad, brother and his wife road tripped out at the end of July and we went over to Ucluelet for a few nights. It was freezing and foggy but we still had a blast surfing, body surfing and hot tubbing at our cabin. |
 |
| Adessa LOVED body boarding... much more into than the older sister. Danika was pretty freaked out and it didn't help that her wet suit was too small on her. She much preferred beach combing. |
 |
| Ucluelet... my dad is a rock star surfer! |
 |
| The brother in laws |
 |
| Meeko surfing it up |
 |
| The best... seriously such a selfless trooper, she spent 2 days freezing on the beach with all the kids while we surfed! Mom you're amazing! xoxo |
 |
| God's beauty never ceases to amaze me! |

Special memories at the beach with Uncle Joel
 |
| The girls and I road tripped back with my family to Calgary for 2.5 weeks and spent the time at my sisters place. The morning we woke up it was Adessa's 4th birthday! My how time flies... this little girl has grown up much too quickly! |
 |
| Meeting Granny for the first time! Amara does not like to cuddle like Adessa did, she is a strong little thing that wants to stand and look around the whole time. |
 |
| We took about 50 of these... this was the best one! Grandma and Grandpa with all their grandchildren! |
 |
| Granny and the girls! |
 |
| Amara meeting her other Granny, she had us over for a yummy lunch. Unfortunately the kids were done at this point! |
 |
| Trying to get a nice photo in their sunday best... no luck! |
 |
| SO many special memories with their cousins... such an amazing trip! |
 |
| My beautiful, amazing sister who was so helpful to me with the kids and opened up her house to us for 2 whole weeks. Amazing meals, and so much fun every day! |
 |
| We got to see Steve's parents and sisters for one day, as they just got home from Newfoundland. It was so nice to see them, but way too quick of a visit! |
 |
| My sister in law Amy and Niece Emilie drove home with us. 16 hours straight in one day... Emilie was my saving grace on the road trip, she helped out SO much with the girls and kept them fed and happy! |
 |
| We missed daddy SO much... never allowed to be apart for 2.5 weeks ever again!!! He worked his bum off while we were off vacationing, best hubby ever! |
 |
| My baby growing much too quickly! She started sitting up on her own while we were in Calgary. |
