Enjoying the weather

This weekend we have been out and enjoying the beautiful weather. It has been warm (+ temps) and sunny most of the weekend. On Saturday afternoon, we watched the cutter parade here in Lacombe. We were able to jump in the back of my parents pickup, enjoy the sleighs and teams along with some coffee and timbits. There were about 48 teams and it appeared to be a good turn out.
On Sunday afternoon we went to Cranna Lake here in Lacombe about 2 minutes from our house with Travis and Jen. They took Katie sledding for the first time (I know kinda sad that this is her first time). She loved it and so did Luke. It was so nice to just be able to get out. For a while here we have had too much snow for them to play in the backyard, and with me not fitting into any winter gear, it has been a lot of time inside. We also went skating for a bit after the sledding. We put Luke on his bobskates for the first time, but he is just a little too independent and didn't want any help. Needless to say, without a helmet that didn't last to long. Hope you were all able to enjoy the weekend as much as we did.

One Down, Two to Go






Over the last week and a bit, we have redone Luke's bedroom. A month ago, I completed a quilt for his bed, something I am trying to do for each kid when they move into a big bed, and then the last week was painting and sorting through everything in his room. He has transitioned to the new bed far better than we ever guessed. I am glad another is coming soon, since I wasn't ready to take him out of the crib yet, but o well. On to Katie's bedroom this week.
