Cole's Picnic

Cole ended his school year with a school wide picnic where he got to participate in a variety of fun games. We had a perfect sunny day with very few mosquitoes.

Track & Field

Mac had her Track & Field day this past week. She earned 3 ribbons - Long Jump qualifying 1st place jump, High Jump qualifying 3rd place jump and the Ball Throw a first place ribbon for throwing the farthest. Her favourite event was the Ball Throw, I guess all of those baseball games and practices paid off! She did not enjoy the running events especially the 400 and 800 metre!

Baseball

During the months of May & June, baseball was our lives! Monday & Wednesday Cole played ball in the Rookie League here in Altona and on Tuesday & Thursday Mac played on an all girls team which traveled to surrounding towns to play. The kids both had a great season and improved so much through out the year. Cole's season ended with a Jamboree in Winkler where each player received a medal and most importantly a powerade, freezie and a piece of pizza. Mac's team had a lot of first year players and were very excited to win their first game during the last game of the season!

Camping in Beausajour

Our first camping trip this year was a very wet one in Beausajour. We ventured out with Grandma Ann & Grandpa Bern, Auntie Rose & Uncle John with their students from the Netherlands, Jeff & Amy and Adam & Allana joined us for supper. We were one very wet camping crew. By the end of the weekend, our campsites looked like huge mud pits and it was impossible to try to stay clean. Mac & Cole found lots of things to keep busy with including puddle jumping, soccer, Zim-Zam, tubing down the river and more puddle jumping!!! Mac also got a hold of the camera while we were sitting around the fire and managed to snap a picture of everybody!
