Camping. In February. Only in BC.

For Family Day weekend, we headed out to go camping at Porteau Cove Provincial Park near Squamish.  What a beautiful place!  We fell asleep to the sound of waves crashing, and woke up to sunshine and more waves! :)
We dressed warmly to go out and enjoyed every minute.  We had 2 beautiful days of sun, and a beautiful morning in the snow :D
Dressed for the brisk air...
 lots of auntie snuggles (this is Stella, btw)
 hanging out with friends,
 organizing the camper,
 enjoying the sun,
 snuggles with Uncle John after meeting him for the first time,
 lunchtime...lots of marshmallows were enjoyed!
 BEAUTIFUL
 enjoying more time together
 hiking to the lookout
 our campsite from across the water
 biking in the fresh air
 catching crabs
 snuggling in the sun (only a sweater!)
 watching the sun set
discovering items of interest
 laughing and catching up
 more marshmallows
 relaxing
 inventing new games
 lots of time with Uncle John

 sharing a new discovery
 typical pose
 smiles and walks

 not phased by the cold air
 bike rides with uncles
 indoor play time
a few more pictures to come...we had a beautiful snowfall the last night - the icing on the cake of a great trip!

Have a LOVEly day!


Another month flew by!

Another month has passed already!  Lana is 3 months now, and her personality is showing through.  She is VERY sweet, loves to smile and talk, enjoys her play mat, always has grins for her sisters, and has found the art of blowing bubbles and drooling :)
Enjoy the snapshots of the past month!
 

 NOT what you want to find in the bathroom on a Monday morning :(

We gave this scene an 'ooooh' and 'aaaah' then grabbed 2 cameras
 Chelsie's turning into a good photographer at age 6! :)

Some beautiful 15 degree days meant walks in the sun

 And time on the trampoline

That tongue in action

Daddy and his three little ladies

A play date for these two little ladies, born 3 weeks apart

Story time with special uncle donal, minus several inches of hair 
(as Brynlie said, "He a little bit cut his hair."  BIG understatement :))

Time on the playmat - enjoying every minute!

Chelsie and Brynlie love their lego :)
and their little sister ;)
And a few of our sweet Lana.  Enjoy!

Some days are more tiring than others



More pictures to come of a most delightful February CAMPING trip! :D  We might be crazy, but it sure was fun!  Have a most wonderful day, remembering on this Valentine Day that "As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love."  John 15:9
