A Hello from Steph and Family
Well for anyone who doesn't know already, I am expecting a bundle of joy of April 9th. I kind of want a girl, Derrik would like a girl, Riley is praying for a brother, but a health baby is what we all want. This summer has been full of adventures, we went camping a few times, a boating trip, and two solid weeks with Riley, and Riley's 6th birthday. He is very exited to start grade one.
I'm still working in the group home, I'm the house supervisor now, it's a lot of fun, but comes with a lot more stress. And Derrik has started a new job, Calgary is booming with job oppotunities. We inherited a dog, Connan, a huge Golden retriever. Not a good mix with our cozy home.
But everything is going really good. We had a bit of a party for my mom's birthday, Uncle Mike and Meagan came to my folks house for dinner, along with my gang, and Amanda's. Then fun at the park with the kids. A big thanks to Meagan who pushed them on the swings, after my arms got tired. I hope everyone had a great summer. And I will will be checking the blog often.

Hello From Mike, Megan, William and Sean
The kids and I have had a great time while I have been on holidays. I took two week off and the boys will be here until the 16th. Megan will be staying until the 25th. While they have been here I rented a car so we could get around.
We have been hiking in an area near the Elbow River and Falls, Horse back riding in the foot hills and Whitewater rafting down the Kananaskis and Bow rivers.

Hiking in the Northern Rockies...
the easy way!
Ramona, Michelle and I just returned from a three day hike to see the voodoos. I have to admit we did it the easy way.... we hiked to our campsite and Cameron flew in our gear! The first day we hiked about 30K's -- needless to say many parts of our body hurt - especially our feet! We had a wonderful campsite, great food and a fire to keep us warm. Cameron and Marc helped set up camp before they flew off.
The second day it rained pretty steady so we slept in and enjoyed the ambience of camping without anyone around for about 35K's. The next day we did a short hike to see the hoodoos -- unusual erosions in the rock -- MAGNIFICENT! We were about to turn back to return to camp when we heard the helicopter. Cameron picked us up on a very small jutting out part of the cliff and took us back to camp and then back to the vehicle.
