Rachel's Blessing

Rachel was blessed February 16, 2014. We were lucky to have my Mom and Dad come out for it, as well as Chris' parents, Steve Lamont and his family, and the Leishman's.
It was a busy weekend. Saturday we spent the day at Millennium Place. We swan in the afternoon, Rachel's first swim. They had the inflatable obstacle up, which we all did (except Rachel), and all succeeded. After dinner at home, we went back to ice skate on the indoor rink. It was so much fun. Macy liked skating with the little strap-on 'skate's', but loved being pushed around in the little buggy. I definitely need to work on my skating skills, I was no where close to Chris and Grandpa's!
Sunday was the blessing. We had everyone over for a lunch of cold cuts, salads, veggies, and chips, with cookies and cream puffs for dessert.
Monday we went to Telus World of Science, and had Oodle Noodle for lunch.
I wish I had more pictures from some of the events, especially the blessing day, but here is what I've got.

 Here I am getting ready to go into my jump, a double lutz...
 but Mom missed it, so you only get to see my landing!!!




We're so glad to have Rachel in our family. She is sweet and smiley, and loves being around her family!

Nice scarf Macy (and polka dot dress!)

Wow Valerie - I'm impressed with your skating, too bad there is not pictures of your jumps!
