Weekend Fair

We’ll be spending the next two days at the Shelburne fall fair manning a couple of booths.  Our church rented the booths to promote itself as well as a kid’s program that we have coming up next Saturday.  We’ve all put a lot of time and effort into the kid’s program (called SonWorld Adventure Park) […]

Emmaus

After months and months of pondering, wondering and praying we have finally decided upon a name for our second little boy!  First off, a special thanks to everyone who helped by suggesting a name back in June, we thought through them all and I’m sure that they helped in the decision process.  Like Canaan, we […]

Bike to Africa Wrap-Up

Our ‘Bike to Africa’ event two days ago was a great success and a lot of fun!  It was a long hard day for Ken and Brendan but they finished all 200kms to raise money for our shipment to Guinea next spring.  The total right now is $1587.50 which we will save until we pack […]

Lots of Fun - Without Mom and Dad!

Yesterday was a day full of appointments at the hospital and our midwives.  Debra had to get an important shot and it took all day to get the paperwork and tests accomplished.  Thankfully, Canaan didn’t have to sit through all of that!  Debra’s Aunt Leah and Uncle Peter took him for the day and from […]

Freebie

Yesterday we were in a store here in Mount Forest when Canaan spied a great looking toy Camaro on the shelf.  It was only a dollar (which I thought I had in my pocket at that point) so I picked up and to his delight put it into his hands.  He was overjoyed and spent […]

A Good View

The small town of Mount Forest where we are temporarily residing has been under construction for quite some time now.  Yes, the entire town!  The main street is dug down about 10 feet and crews are working on virtually everyother street in town running fiber optic lines.  Canaan has absolutely loved it, there are always […]

News Mishmash

It’s been ages (or at least it seems like it) since we last posted so I thought I would give a brief update.  We have been keeping very busy as we finish setting up home and start to tackle other projects.  I’ve been very busy keeping up French as well as helping our church with […]

Congratulations Chris and Becky Prins!

Our good friends Chris and Becky were married today!  It was a great wedding, they made it very personal.  I left feeling like I new them a lot more than when I arrived.  Chris and Becky are both very musical and their love for music really showed, they both sang a few songs after the […]

Water + Soap = Lots of Fun!

This summer we’ve been blessed with a nice big backyard which we’ve been taking advantage of it everyday!  Canaan loves to run around and even more fun lately has been the hose and a few buckets.  Today we added soap into the mix and Canaan had a blast!  I’m pretty sure he would have stayed […]

The Fergus Truck Show

This past weekend Canaan must have thought He was in heaven because we went to the Fergus Truck Show!  It’s the biggest truck show in North America showcasing hundreds of shined and heavily chromed trucks.  Canaan just ooed and awed most of the time and thoroughly enjoyed himself.  Canaan and I had a great time […]
