What a way to start your summer holidays - a trip to BMO.Field to play soccer! The boys were thrilled with the opportunity to go and play (Kaedo) and take pictures (Sterling). They had to get up SUPER early as they had to be to the Y by 7:30am didn't get home until after 6pm. Showers were the first thing on the agenda, then laughing at Sterling's raccoon eyes (actually that may have come first).
They both had a wonderful time and it was a great way to spend a beautiful Thursday.
Tomorrow we are off to a paintball store in a neighboring town so Kaedo can buy some more gear. Part of his birthday gift was a day of paintballing with Craig and Sterling on Sunday, so he is spending his GC (thanks Anti) on a new mask and other paraphanelia so he can obliterate the competition.
We will also be going to get Sterling some sandals as he has a nasty staph infection in one of his toes (he's fine, no emails, texts or calls necessary), and the doctor has ordered no socks or runners unless necessary until it gets cleared up. Must admit it is totally disgusting. Maybe I should just get out the pizza cutter and cut it off? His doc will allow for two more rounds of antibiotics and then he will have to have surgery if necessary.
The weekend will be busy with football, a movie, a cookout and paintballing - to which I was not invited - so I think it will be a great start to Summer.
Kaedo loved all the calls and gifts he received for his birthday so thanks every one. He said the funniest call was talking to Avery. Lol. I know what those calls are like!
I had my last day at work today until the Fall. I signed on to go back in September and will hopefully have more news of some exciting things coming our way in the next month or so.
Craig is counting down to a week of holidays around the middle of the month, as well as another week in August. We are also so excited that Stan and Shirley will be coming and spending the last week of holidays (and her birthday) with us. We are also counting down to mom and dad's visit in October. Wow! Some great things coming up!
Wish me luck at the paintball store tomorrow. I am less than interested. Might take a book, ask for a chair and have Kaedo tell me when the bill needs to be paid!
Happy Thursday All!

Hope your shopping day went well!
Get that toe all fixed up Sterling!
Have fun at paintball on Sunday boys.
We are sitting on our front deck awaiting the arrival of our company from Chillwack. Got supper all ready to put in oven so will enjoy a happy hour with them before sitting down to eat. Stan will be leaving around 6:45 p.m. to go to the funeral home. His aunt Gertrude Klassen passed away and her funeral is tomorrow. Stan, Robert, Hank and Jake were asked to be ushers to Stan wants to go for the family. I am not going tonight and I know going tomorrow to the funeral is going to be tough enough for me. Aunt Gertrude was 99 years young in March of this year. There family is very big so it will be a huge funeral. Then at 4:30 p.m., we are going out for supper to Stan's 1963 class reunion. Busy, busy day - oh ya our BIG 100 year celebration parade is in the morning and first thing on the list - we can't forget to phone and sing Happy Birthday to a special lady!
BIG HUGS to all!
