Summer's here

We have been done school now for almost 3 weeks. We have slept in, played tons and just enjoyed some down time. Ball season wrapped up a couple of weeks ago. Some seasons are better than others but the kids had fun. Last weekend Mark and I went away for the nite for the first time in 5 years. It was so relaxing. We went to Whistler, ate, slept and had some uninterrupted time. Thank you to our friend Kelly who came and stayed with our kids.
The kids have been loving the pool in the backyard and time with friends. Today we went to the lake with friends, had a great time and got abit of sun. Nash and his buddies have been riding bikes tons and playing in our back forty (weird term). The picture shows the good clean fun they had the other day. They said they got muddy doing jumps and then decided to have a mud fight. What can a say but, 'hang on I'll get the camera'.
My Grampa from Moose Jaw went into the hospital on Friday by ambulance. He collapsed and was not breathing. My moms siblings were called and they all arrived Friday nite. My cousin Shelan came too and spent the weekend. Grampa is now the cardiac ward and waiting to find out some results. He is in so much pain with his shingles and waiting for a different cast to be put on his ankle after rupturing it a month ago and now his heart is beating irregular and there is some issues with his stomach. Poor Gramps. It is very hard to see him in pain and very discouraged. I know this has been very hard on my mom. I know the Lord will not give her more than she can handle. Praying that Grampa heals quickly.
