We’ve made a lot of good memories this summer, many of them with our grandchildren. We had a great time visiting Drew and Jami-Lee in Calgary in June and Sam and Nate in Vancouver in July. Many hours were spent reading stories, playing with toys, visiting playgrounds and going on adventures.
We spent a couple of glorious days camping with Drew and Jami-Lee (and their Mommy) and had hoped to camp with Sam and Nate too. When that didn’t work out, two-year-old Sam had a sleepover in the trailer with us in his very own driveway!
What would summer be without the beach, whether it be a prairie lake or a rocky ocean shore? Here’s a gallery of some of my favourite memories from this summer:
Jami-Lee and Drew at Gull Lake near Lacombe, AB
Sam and Nate at Cates Park in North Vancouver, BC
I was amazed at how sure-footed 17-month-old Nate was on the wet, barnacled rocks!
Is it any wonder that we feel so blessed?

spending time with Grandchildren is a real blessing. I can’t get enough.
I agree completely!
Look like the little chap with the green bucket is panning for gold… no wonder along with your other wonderful blog posts!
Hmm… perhaps we’ll have to introduce him to gold panning on a future visit!
Such cute pictures! I especially like the ones of the little boys walking on the rocks!
I love rocky ocean beaches… probably because I spent much of my childhood living on one!
