First day of school - Eden grade 2, Kyleigh kindergarten

Lost a tooth!

Stubborn Mama spider.  Laid her egg sack in our bbq cover when it was on the ground.  When Will put it back on the bbq, this Mama spider defended her sack with real determination. We admired her (although I was sure to stay back - especially when Will was in the vicinity - the spider did not like Will - who teased her on purpose!)

Holding baby Channing Irelyn - Chelsea and Andrew's new little girl who arrived on September 19th

Eden's class started the year with a Clifford the Big Red Dog unit.  I made these cupcakes for a celebration at the end.

If you look closely, you can see the outline of Goliath - which we hung up to have an action lesson for the girls.

Sling shot-ting!

Lots of giggles!

Sweet victory!  Yeah!

Raylene & Levi's Reception

Will's beautiful daughter, Raylene, got married in 2009 to Levi Frehlich.  We think she's chosen well - a good match in personalities.  In August 2010, we threw a party in our backyard, and took some pictures of them together so we could remember this special time for them!  Congratulations Raylene & Levi!

Some little buddies that came along for our photo shoot!  You can also see Levi's good sense of humour here.  He doesn't love smiling.... except when there is something funny to smile about, right Levi?

My friends, Roxanne, Carrie and Michelle were a tremendous help to me - getting things ready and served!

Two cute little helpers!

 

Nothing to do with the wedding, but apples were ready that day in our yard!  Yum!

Family portrait!

With more of the Woodward clan.   Uncle Ryan, Grandma & Grandpa Woodward

Levi's so good with the girls

We loved that so many people came out to support Raylene & Levi.  Here are some of our Calgary cousins.

A fun gift idea - a money tree!  Who wouldn't love that!  Raylene and Levi say they are saving up for a hide-a-bed.

At the gift opening.  Raylene and Levi were delighted!

Calgary Carter family!  Love Uncle Andrew's dramatic expression!

Our friend Jodi - who travelled to be with us.

Uncle Ryan - who has always had a special spot in his heart for Raylene - and vice-versa!

A long time friend - Ariel Davies

The 'set up' in our yard - with finger food and casual visiting.  We were also delighted that Raylene's Grandma Judy and Grandpa Dick were able to come, as were Aunt Karen, and Aunt Dixie.
