20 people showed up at a surprise party! Duff, Archie, and Ian met in Edmonton to celebrate Pete surviving 60 years.
We were treated to gourmet meals and great times of visiting and sharing stories both real and imagined! Thanks to Marj for hosting us.
In the pictures are Archie and Jan MacLeod; Kathy Olson; Pete and Marj and their three children: Everett, Amber(and Dustin) and Cayley; Ian and Ruth and Andrew and Andrea, and Jennifer, John, Imogen and Isaac Wallace, Duff MacLeod, and a cousin Don Eastcott and Liz Eastcott.
Peter turned 60 in February but Everett turned 30 and Duff turned 70. (Also Liz and Don both had birthdays in February.)
I was scooping up the latest snowfall and it was quite cold out and the packed snow underneath lifted up in big chunks ... so what else was I supposed to do with them?
August 25, 2010 Isaac was born to Jennifer and John Wallace at Royal University Hospital. He weighed in at 9 pounds, 4 ounces and he was four weeks early. Mother and baby are doing fine. Big sister Imogen is excited. The last I heard, the father was surviving too.
Andrea arrived last Friday so here is a photo of the whole family who were in church service on Sunday. The cousins: Ivan Baggett, Imogen Wallace, Emora Baggett, and Dominque Baggett.
Born in 1948 (so I am a baby boomer) I remember living in a house that had kerosene lanterns and a wood stove and water had to be hauled in. In the winter it was easier because we simply had to bring in snow and melt it!
