Summer Garden 2011

Today we are thanking the Lord for blessing us with some rain...soft gentle rain.
So, I took advantage of the wet foliage and shot some pics.

Summer Swim Session~July 2011

Every summer, we spend the first two weeks of July at the pool watching our kids do their annual summer swimming session.  Amber stopped taking lessons a few years ago, and this year Levi also joined the retired swimmers club.  They came along for fun to cheer their siblings on, to visit the library, and to deposit quarters in the gum-ball machine.

This year David completed Swim Kids 4 and Taylor received her Bronze Medallion.  David's class was 30 minutes in length, at the Tansley Woods pool, and Taylor's class was 2  1/2 hours every morning at the Mountainside outdoor pool.  I was a little concerned about her being outside because you never know what kind of weather you might get, but she was blessed with absolutely amazing weather every single day.  She came away with not only a wonderful tan, but more lifesaving skills and one more step towards life guarding (or teaching.)

♥Way to go Schenkie Fish!!! ♥We are proud of you!♥

Canada Day 2011

We went up to Orillia for the annual Canada Day/Birthday Bash.  Our drive was so slow......the highway was packed......it took us twice as long as it should......but we made it and enjoyed a couple lovely days at Opa and Oma's with the family there.  We brought one of our tents and spent the night outside with the boys, while the girls slept in the Zwiers tent with a bunch of giggling girls.  The weather was lovely and everyone enjoyed the delicious food, fellowship, and the opportunity to get to know the newest addition to the Schenk family......Tanner Calvin Schenk......cute pup belonging to Bill and Kym and the girls. (He made a fun subject to photograph.)

Enjoying the scenery during our crawl up north...


Hmmmm...the other side isn't busy...
