images from the weekend

Hi friends! I hope you had a fantastic Canada Day! We spent it on Pender Island. It was such a great getaway. Some highlights from the weekend were:
  • Walking to the marina with my hubby and daughter on July 1st at 6 am and seeing four orcas swim by, slapping their tales on the water - an amazing way to start Canada Day
  • playing a game of pick up baseball and having some locals join in (including an 88 year old ex-prison guard who loves a good riot)
  • spa time with the girls (steam cave = bliss)
  • seeing deer on every walk we did
  • being one of the last cars allowed on each ferry connection, so lucky. At one point we made it just because the car in front of us wouldn't start.
  • barbecued salmon dinner with homemade kale chips - sweet mother of god it was yummy
  • watching the kids play with stella 
  • tater tots  -first time having them. Where have they been all my life?
  • quality time with friends
Did you celebrate Canada Day?
