Time to say goodbye. It’s always a hard thing to do. I don’t know how long until we meet again…..
The Mc’s have been with us for nearly a month. 4 + 5 = 9 kids, and a whole stack of fun. Our final evening together…..
It seems to be our tradition to have a fire and food. The kids have spent a lot of time together in the backyard playing all sorts of things. Now tonight is our last evening together. Last time in who knows how long before we see each other again……
It was the sweetest thing watching these two work together to peel apples. Ryan was so patient and kind with her, and in turn he was the Man of the moment in her eyes!!
We have gotten to hang out for a month with these guys. I don’t know that these photo’s in any way capture what has been going on, but here are a random smattering…..
LOTS of time on the tramp.A trip to the corn maze near Lethbridge…..The big girls deciding they want to make some money so went around the neighbourhood offering to rake leaves. They made close to $30! This is them disposing of the leaves when they were done.Our kids were still in school. So the Mc cousin’s were home without them most of the day, except for Chelise of course.Chelise wanted to help peel the apples. Ryan so sweetly helped her, and they were both very co-operative for my pictures 🙂I have been taking a ton of pictures because I am currently on a photography workshop. I had been walking around with my phone testing out my compositions using an app on the phone, and Chelise is copying using Ryan for her model.
What a blessing for us all to be with family who have travelled so far from New Zealand.
The big girls flexed their entrepreneurial muscles today. They went around the neighbourhood and offered to rake leaves for a price. They earned $27!! They are just finishing up and are feeling pretty pleased with themselves.
Some days it’s just really hard to choose one picture. We spent all day near Lethbridge at a corn maze and petting zoo, with our cousins (my sister and her family). There was also this super awesome slide!!
