Regent Retreat

Went with Andrea & Emily to the Regent College all-campus retreat over the weekend. Andrea of course was working hard, leading the music for the sessions in her usual thoughtful and accomplished style, but I actually had a pretty lazy time, hanging out with Emily at the playground and putting her to bed early. This was nice, since I had a ferocious cold.

Home Again

There’s nothing like your own bed after a trip away.

We took a road trip last week, first to Sun Peaks (very nice — thanks, Airmiles!), and then to Calgary to visit Andrea’s parents.

Emily did extremely well with the driving, apart from blowing chunks all over the place on a winding section of road. Goes with the territory, I guess.
