Hi Mom - it's me!

Summer '06 - A Recap

Yes, it has been awhile since summer has passed, but, in the spirit of continuity, below are some pictures our eventful summer. We had a great visit to Newfoundland in July, tons of fun spreading the news of our first pregnancy and recollecting old memories along the downtown streets in St. John's.

A trip around the loop to Old Perlican, a small fishing town:

Thank You Queen

To pay tribute to the Queen's Canadian holiday, we parted the city for Invermere and spent the long weekend with our friends Rob, Lisel and their two little ones Sophie and Walker. It was an awesome getaway from Vancouver hecti-city full of hiking, exploration, gourmet meals, and dominos.

Cute little Sophie.
