June!

 
At the end of year picnic for Aiden's co-op, we did the usual - as well as some more normal things like frisbee and soccer and picnic food!

And the tree was so inviting, even Mom couldn't resist the climb :)

We also got to stay for the reptile intro show that was so well done that everyone was drawn in from toddlers to grown ups - and we all learned a lot.

Mom and Dad then took the kids to our friends' house where they stayed for the week while Mom and Dad went for a Leaders' Reset retreat at Ellel Canada. Apart from the hard work of some inner healing, they got to enjoy canoeing, restarting running, and an overabundance of delicious food.

 

And, when we reconnected, we took everyone to a rock climbing gym for a combined birthday party. We unfortunately flustered the front desk by showing up with 7 climbers, but everyone had fun in the end, and we topped it off with a joint cake and party chips. Unfortunately, Aiden didn't get to enjoy it fully because he was in the beginning stages of a voice-stealing sore throat.

And this is June begun - but there is more to June yet as we'll be ending it with a week with family also! A lovely love-gift from our Father, who knows our needs and desires.
