Summer Fun

Well, it's about time Mommy updated this blog of ours. It looks like the Summer has left 2006. The rain and cool days have arrived. It was a beautiful Summer though, and we enjoyed every day of it. It's hard to believe that it went so fast! We were in Lethbridge in July visiting all our family there. We weren't feeling too well though. Mommy thought Noel had the measles, but the walk-in-clinic doctor said it was probably some viral rash... weird. It seemed like all the symptoms. So that put a little damper on our visit. Opa and Oma built a pool at Uncle Jonas and Auntie Evelyn's house. I usually love swimming, but I was only in a short while. Hopefully next summer. We went up to Golden, B.C. to meet with Daddy and Mommy's dear friends from Abbotsford. They brought their sweet new baby Eden along!! I think we'll be great friends. Noel and Eden got some great shots together. Daddy took our purple car up this very high mountain road. People go para-gliding off there.I kept counting the numbers on the way up and then would end with 20!! Daddy said he sure hoped it wouldn't be 20 Ks! Well we finally got to the top and it was well worth the ride up. Very gorgeous view of the valley. The only sad part about that, is it put our car in a bad spot. On the way to Lethbridge for Golden, we had to stop every hour almost for Daddy to dump water on the radiator. Oh dear... Long story short? We drove home to Sask in a new mini-van. When anyone asks I tell them Opa drove the purple car to the auction because it was broken. I am very particular on telling people it is a MINI-van when they ask. I am pretty good with my vehicles. Opa and Oma Van Ee bought a lot to build a cabin up by Meota Lake in North Battleford. We were walking to the Lake, and Mommy asked me if there were any cars coming as we were crossing the street. Nope I said... Just a Jeep. (Yep it was a Jeep Liberty too)Smart boy! Make my Opa Arnoldussen proud!
Noel has taken to crawling all over the house now. He loves to explore and when he comes upon Mommy.. JACKPOT!!! He is eating so much food! He loves it. Not sure where he puts it all, but it's fun watching him with finger foods. I always tell Mommy when he is going to the two steps int he front entry. Our cousin Tyler comes now 2 days a week, and he fell down twice in one day!! poor kid. I guess Noel just wanted to copy him. Mommy think she was going after the football that rolled down. it's fun having Tyler over. He is such a sweet boy. He is only 8 hours older than Noel, so now Mommy is having a taste of twins.
