LIFE IN BRITISH COLUMBIA

Remember Joe building a bed for Jennifer in her utility room?

Joe sitting at the desk figuring out something!

The finished project

Stella Angus and Alice fit right in!

While in Vancouver we went to the market

Could you ever get your head around to thinking you might eat this????

Not this girl!

So many colourful and beautiful flowers at the market

Walking up to the Fairmont hotel at Whistler

where Jennifer is employed as the head gardener

The main entrance is quite impressive

We had lunch at the hotel

Very nice

Jennifer decided to move her bed from one wall to another

She and I tugged and tugged at the king size mattress

The cats didn't help

Both of them were right in there like dirty shirts!

BC ferries coming and going

We're heading down the sea to sky highway

on our way to Penticton

We have arrived

We took Gwennie to the Vet for a check-up

The Dr. had a hard time finding a vein to take a blood sample

 to compare valley fever numbers

He had to switch legs and had to get a different size needle

Gwendolyn was not impressed

In Phoenix it took 3 days for blood results

In Canada it will take 2 weeks

Must mention though Canada knows nothing about valley fever

Meet Dr. George Proudfoot

He was listening to Gwendolyn's heart

He said all was well

however

he did mention she did not have enough oxygen in her blood

The ever changing sky

Mom picking up Garen from daycare

Check out those bunny ears!!!!!

After we picked up Garen we headed to Kelowna for the afternoon

Here is Garen with his cousin

How times have changed

Look at them!!

Love this shot

Nana and Granny took the dogs for a walk

Lyndsay and her sister-in-law went shopping

Lyndsay's brother watched the little children

All was good

Look at these beaver dams

Ha.......they have been busy little beavers

Hanging

We met this little puppy

Her name is Brin

a cross between a Boston terrier and Pug

Oh boy......lots of colour here

Back at the house

One in two out

Don't you wonder what they are thinking or saying????

Evening in Kelowna

Here comes the moon

On to the hockey rink on Friday

The boys had one game in the morning and one in the afternoon

Over the lunch hour the hockey team and their families came out to the house for pizza

Lots of kids!!!!!!

Surrounded by black

The boys won their morning game

5 - 3

They lost the afternoon game

5 - 3

Here is a great horned owl

She is the Momma

And two of the babies

One of the babies was spreading his wings

This is where they live

Up....way up in a tree on Westminister Ave. W.

You can see 3 babies here

Looks like Momma is catching a few zzzzzzzs

Each time we drive by there are many people  under the tree taking pictures of the owls

We talked to one lady who said once they leave the nest they stay in the tree for a week before flying

Since Saturday all three babies are sitting on different limbs of the tree

Flying time is coming up!

Saturday

A beautiful sunny crisp morning at the vineyard

Jennifer came down for Easter weekend

We all went out for breakfast at the Bench

Came  back home to find Gwendolyn sleeping on Garen's bed

Happy to report Gwendolyn has had four really good days

She has been eating breakfast and dinner

YIPEE

A bunny came to the park

You can see bunny dropping little orange balls which were traded in for chocolate eggs

EASTER SUNDAY IN KELOWNA

Quincy the great dane is one of Nana's granddogs

He is making sure his pillow is comfortable, ha-ha

Time to lick the whipping cream beaters

Gail's dog

Ol' blue eyes

Nana's grandchildren

Nana and I share these cute boys!!!!!!

Sweet little cousins feeding Nana's birds

We celebrated Easter

and

are most thankful and grateful

for family

LIFE IS GOOD
