Back to Regular Programming...

The past two months have been busy ones for the ProjectDavid household: in july we moved from Langley alllll the way across the Fraser Valley and up a mountain.

In August, Grandma and Gramps came out from Alliston, Ontario to visit (and to meet Elisabeth!) As you can see, we had a busy 12 days and managed to show them most of what this end of the valley has to offer. Dad and Gramps even managed to golfing at Cultus Lake one day!!

On the last full day they were here, Gramps and Daddy watched the kids while Mummy and Grandma went to the Minter Gardens nursery and gift store. While we had Brian Minter running all over the place for us (he really did. Leona went with all her notes and his latest newsletter and she had him running all over looking for things for her and even offering to ship bulbs to Ontario for her!) We also made a 'quick' three hour stop at House of James. There is SO much to look at and lots of yummy things to eat too!



Then on Tuesday Grandma and Gramps flew back home and Davey headed back to Langley for his first day of school. Yes that's right. Preschool. He was very scared/shy until he saw Jadey and then he got a little bit excited.

Don't they look like pros?!







On Tuesday night Grosspapa arrived and camped out in the living room with Davey. Yah, we didn't let him have the guest room...

Grosspapa managed to persuade Davey to have a bath with him.



On Wednesday we were back at Harrison for lunch and some sandcastle building. MAN was it ever hot!! I hope that the weather lasts till Saturday so we can go again.





Tink tries her first lemon. MNNNNN yum...




Maybe not.



















And now everyone (even Daddy) is gone (though Daddy's only back at work, so we see a little of him...) We were going a bit stir crazy after being used to so much excitement.

Luckily work has begun on the park they're building on the other side of our complex. So we went for a walk then spent about half an hour watching the dump trucks come and get loaded up with dirt. Then they drive off. New dump trucks come and dump their double load of dirt, get filled up with dirt from the hill, then drive off again. Davey thought it was seriously cool.

Tinky has started calling Davey "dadey". It sounds like Jadey only with a d at the front. SO cute! And they're very huggy and kissy with each other. When I finally pried Davey away from watching the trucks I crammed them both in my single stroller so they had to ride with their arms around each other. They actually seemed to like it better than the double stroller. Hmnnn...
