As school comes to an end, anticipated summer holiday plans become a reality. There is no doubt Sam and I feel out of the loop when it comes to keeping up with our friends in Prince George. We are so used to seeing everyone at school, sporting events, church and at home. We are wondering what your summer plans are and what your family is planning on doing. If you leave us a blog comment we can catch up on your plans and dream about your vacation.
Obviously part of our family will be here in Vancouver as Sam continues his chemo treatments. The girls will hopefully be able to spend some time at the cabin in Vernon with Auntie Darlene and Josh. This is one of the hardest things for Sam, that he will not do the things and be with the family and friends that he looks forward to all year long. We will try to do some fun, normal things in between the difficult treatment days. Karly is very excited about her participation in the Summer Games Basketball Team. She and Kayla, another Cedars Bald Eagle, made the team in spring and have been training and practicing hard. What a highlight that will be for all involved. Katelyn is looking forward to going to Homewood Sailing Camp with some great Cedars friends as well: Alannah, Carson, Mitch, and Jacob. (Two who are also Cedars Bald Eagles). It's comforting for me as a recovering, shocked mother to know they will not be the only kids walking around bald this summer...our kids will be well supported wherever they go this summer. In August Katelyn will be serving at Ness Lake Bible Camp as a junior counsellor, located just outside of Prince George. We hope and pray that many kids will come to know Jesus as their Forever Friend or connect or reconnect with God in a powerful way this summer.
Those are our summer plans as of today. We hope you enjoy the holidays with your families and the precious memories you will share together this summer. God's blessings and protection over you all.

Hi guys, we are going to Seattle on July 7th, Matt and Adam are coming to we are going to Pike Place Market where the very first Starbucks opened!!! and we also are going to check out the Top Pot Donut factory. They supply Starbucks with donuts. The boys showed me the brochure from there, if you can believe a donut shop has a brochure! The donuts look like a work of art. I say its just another way to pump sugar and fat into your body, disgusting!!! I won't eat them no matter how fancy they are. Then we are coming to Vancouver and hopefully we can see you guys. Thats it for us. Love and prayers to you both. Rosie
Hi.
Just wanted to say it was GREAT seeing you both on Friday. In some odd kind of way, it still felt like life was some what 'normal' and we were in a park in PG some were justing hanging out...having fun. Not to say it wasen't fun, b/c it was...a lot of fun! But what is normal any way? I guess the normal we were used too before all of these things happened to our lives. It was great to see Sam. To see his smile and hear his laugh again. It was great to have been tricked by his gum thingey and laugh like I haven't in a long time. I think of you all so often. I look forward to the day when we can see each other again. Thanks for coming over and making my/our day so spechiel...I guess that is what spechiel people do when they are in our lives.
Sam....soon you'll be running and running and running....and I am going to make you chase bryce until you can't catch your breath!! Look forward to it!!!
Hey:
If you and the kids want to come for an afternoon, have a swim, hot tub, sauna, exercise room, walk along the New Westminster Quay, whatever, give us a call 604-523-0042. We think of you and pray for you. We've, as they say, been there, done a lot of that. Things look very encouraging for you, Sam, and for that we rejoice....
