Family

As you can see, its been quite some time since I've updated the blog. The past month and a half have gone by like a whirl wind.

Back in May we travelled to Niagara to visit my (Erin's) family for just over 2 weeks. Unfortunately, after only being back for a week, my Grampa suffered a stroke and passed away a few days later. So we once again packed and boarded a plane back to Ontario.

My Grampa's funeral was the first time my cousins and I had all been together in many years. It had also been a while since my brother and I spent any time together. So here are a few pictures as evidence of our reuniting for years to come.

When we got home from our second trip out east, it was time to work frantically on our basement. This time in preparation for the carpet to be installed just days later. I'll put up pictures of this in another post.

Of course the carpet was purposely timed just before Dave's sister Grace, husband Shawn, and our nephews Spencer and Timothy were to arrive and stay with us for the weekend. It was the first time Cole had ever met his only 2 cousins. We had a great visit and the newly (almost) finished basement got its first visitors.
