My aunt is here visiting from Kelowna for a month as she always does in the spring and my sister was down from Melfort working out of her Regina office for a few days so we decided to have an early birthday supper for Pace who turns 17 this year!
We loved that a traveling fair used to set-up in the parking lot of a mall near our house every June since it was cheaper, less busy and more convenient than Regina’s main exhibition and fair in August not to mention a great way to celebrate the end of the school year.
Nothing makes the camping season official like me wearing jorts for the first time! (This year, we even were able to get into our seasonal site one week earlier than usual due to the lack of snow over the winter and the park crew being ahead of schedule with annual maintenance – yay!)

From when Sasha turned five…
So proud of my intelligent, creative, stylish, funny, beautiful girl. Such a strong, empathetic, kind, original personality. A silent highlight of our recent Vegas trip was hearing how many random strangers would comment on her sense of style which is very true!
I didn’t get a chance to make an updated video so this one I made four years ago during quarantine will have to suffice to celebrate my dad’s milestone 80th birthday. Love you lots! (At least we all look four years younger in these photos!)
I didn’t put a nickel of my own money during our week in Vegas but did a bit on behalf of a friend (lost at both slots and roulette) and won a whopping $4.75 at the airport on $20 my mom wanted me to gamble for her. This “big win” was just as I was […]
