Tom’s 77th Birthday was July 30th. I was on my own to do “random acts of kindness” this year so I bought my ice cream sandwiches and distributed them to Jean and Cheyenne, the Emily Leavitt Family, Jaqui Cardno family, Sam and the Sam Moore family. I tried Mary and Lincoln but they weren’t home. Jean and Cheyenne wanted to visit Tom’s grave with me so two days later we did and then went to Wabi Sabi for dinner. I was suppose to be paying but Jean quickly paid when I wasn’t looking. I get so upset with her. Carolyn, Ephraim and Sarah, his girlfriend called the day after Tom’s birthday wanting to take me out for dinner as they passed thru Vancouver on a road trip to Vancouver Island. That was fun to see them and share an Indian vegetarian meal. Jeannette called me the day after Tom’s birthday too when they were thinking of him. He was and is celebrated, remembered and loved.
Cindy, Paul, Max, Jacqui and little Aksel have been touring thru Finland, Sweden, Norway, Amsterdam and Ireland. It has looked lovely and they seem to have been having a good time, They arrive back here on Friday and I am certain they will be weary. I am suppose to pick them up in their big van. Sam and I have been on our own. He has been over for two Sunday dinners and he came last Saturday with Ross, Sarah and Hansen while Liza's family was here. We took him for brunch on Monday morning too with the Burgess family as it was a holiday.
Liza and her family arrived last Friday evening driving two cars down as Niki Kenyon had kindly offered to take Sayde to the multi Stake girls’ camp on the island and she needed their wheelchair van for Sayde. Sayde’s friend arrived on Monday and stayed overnight. I got them off with Niki yesterday morning and then went to the Temple and cleaned the house. Liza and Brendon went to the Temple while they were here and picked blueberries with Sayde. Keaton flew into Abbotsford from FSY in Edmonton on Saturday. We went for a Brae Island walk on Sunday.
Trevor and Tammie are preparing for a trip to Utah to meet Jaxon and are then bringing Jadyn and Treyson back with them for a visit. Treyvn is back at football and school. Rissa and her family went to the Bull family reunion at Disneyland and have been home doing activities and spending time at their lake home.
I have busy with my yard, my callings, my kids and my dog. It has been a warm summer and watering is required. Marie, my neighbor, has been away from time to time and I try to do some watering there too. Lincoln sometimes comes to water for her so I try to determine if he has come or not. I am busy, often tired but always blessed. Enjoying my new car and missing my precious husband.
