Summer, Birthdays & family fun...

It's been a busy week in the K-S household; Last weekend it was Laura's 29th birthday which was great fun. We threw a little surprise party for her which we all enjoyed very much. On Monday, my parents arrived from the UK for their 2 week holiday in Canada.

On Tuesday I had to take my driving test for my BC license - it was fairly intimidating doing a road test after accumulating 11 years of bad driving habits! I did pass fortunately and we headed off afterwards to Harrison Hot Springs which is a beautiful lake and and hot springs surrounded by beautiful mountains... We had a wonderful afternoon there with mum and dad.

We waved goodbye to my parents on Wednesday for their trip to Vancouver Island, and yesterday welcomed Laura's brother Tom to stay with us for a little while. We're pretty tired but we've got plenty to look forward to... Tom and I are off to watch Coldplay in Vancouver on Sunday night, and Laura and I (and the girls) are heading up to Whistler on Thursday night with mum & dad... All in all, life is good!

A weekend away in Sun Peaks

A couple of weekends ago I went away with the Elders from LEFC - we had a weekend in Sun Peaks which is about 3 hours away and up into the mountains; We had a fun time talking about church, quad biking, and playing settlers (In no particular order!). Below is a little video of some of the fun we had.
