Good Bye Everest

Everest, our family's beautiful friend of almost 12 years left us on May 4, 2011. He was friendly, gentle, and always a little "quirky"!! He quietly laid down on our kitchen floor and closed his eyes for the last time late that night. There was nothing out of the ordinary with him that night, it was just time for his body to rest forever. We continue to miss him, writing this finds me with tears in my eyes once again. Thanks to Dezene Huber for sharing the picture that captures Everest so perfectly.

I'll write more later, for now just pictures or you can make your own captions!! Don't you think we should've taken a whole family picture just to top it off?? I can hear the groans now :)

Lately...

The Spruce Kings came to Cedars again this year to play floor hockey against the kids. Josh and Ethan teamed up on the grade 3 team and Maren spectated this year!

Mitchell finally all tired out at nap time!

Now we can call Maren "toothless"!!

Loads of Snow!

Our front door looked the prettiest and snowiest ever, yesterday morning! We have been getting lots of big dumps of snow and are now being treated to balmy conditions but it's also melting all that snow! Welcome to PG!
