We live in such a beautiful place! Growing up in Chilliwack, it’s easy to miss the mountains when moving to the Prairies, but we really have the best of both worlds…the Rocky Mountains are our horizon and only a one hour drive away! Last week Mike, William, and Frans went…

Mike had a busy week, just the way he loves it, but somehow I know that this picture was the highlight of his week…his grandkids showing him their new baby chicks! One thing I know he misses a lot is being able play with his grandkids, so these moments are…

This past week was pretty typical spring weather for Southern Alberta, starting out with beautiful temperatures on Monday. Mike, William, Frans and John headed out to Lethbridge, and their first stop was at Humpty’s for a delicious lunch. After lunch, they took the short drive to Hendersen Lake for a…

This past Friday Mike, John, William and Frans headed to the Home and Garden Trade Show in Lethbridge. Getting out of the unit and out of the house is always refreshing for everyone! No two weeks are really ever the same for Mike, which is awesome! It keeps things interesting…
