Every Canada Day we go camping in Salmon Arm with the same group of friends. The very first year, there were no kids. This year there were seven! It is a lovely tradition started by Katy and one we hope will continue for many years to come.

| Since returning home I have discovered that this is proof of a 'grass party' game which involves picking grass, throwing it up in the air, and yelling grass party! |
 |
| The girls singing 'Oh Canada' back to the campsite |
 |
| The water was freezing, but our kids don't seem to care |
 |
| "What...?" |
 |
| "You think I threw that piece of food..?" |
 |
| "Get out of here!!" |
 |

| Lately, people have been asking if Sammy and Téa are sisters, or twins. I wonder why they might think that..? |
