We hiked down to Spotted Lake. It is a special ground for the 1st Nation. It was really interesting.

 
Spotted Lake

 
Mickayla was silly and got stuck in one of the spotted lake areas. We weren't sure how we could get her and her shoes out, but she was able to do it.

 
Lily was so cute at the wedding. She loved the noise that the flooring made when she tapped her foot on it. It made the best noise.

 
The Blanket ceremony was really cool. There was a lot of symbolism. I love symbolism.

 
I don't know this man's name but he created a song for Scott's Mom and Micheal. It was beautiful!

 
The chicken dance is a tradition for Scott's family to do at a wedding. Scott is doing the dance in tight quarters. The reception got moved in to the auditorium because of FREEZING weather.

 
This is the top of their wedding cake. They had porcupines as the cake center piece. It was really cute. They had a great story that went along with them.

This was our last Day in Canada. We saw wild horses by Scott's Mom's house. We took a picture. I thought these horses were beautiful. I hope you think so too.

 
When I returned home from Canada I found I was very loved. I had flowers and gifts from many friends. These beautiful flowers were from Christiane and Dennis.

 
When LaDawn,Brent and Brooklynn came to visit we took a day and went to Remlinger Farms. We started out with picking berries. We picked some and ate some. Some of us at more then others.

 

 

 

 Brooklynn's favorite thing to do at Remlinger Farms was the horse back ride.

 The train is Will's favorite.

 A fun slow ride on the train

  It was fun to feed the animals.

 These kids were a little high on the hog:)

 
Lily got her first driving lesson while we were at the farm.

 
We ended up taking home a few of the farm animals after a fun day

 We did have a few hot days in Redmond. Not very many but enough to fill the pool up for the kids once.

 
Mickayla and Will made sun glasses at the Science Center in Seattle. They made pretty fancy ones. They should start up a business

 Mickayla and Will got an opportunity to ride a steam engine from Snoqualmie to North Bend and back. They went to vist the engineers after our ride. They had a fun time. So did Tina and I

 
Mickayla had a wonderful time at Google while we were at Brent's gradation. She happened to be there on a day that there were kids there who were finalist for the Google name design. I think she was sold on Google as the company to work for. Watch out Ann and LaDawn, there may be another Risenmay there as soon as she is old enough.
