Ok... so things are starting to happen at our place! We had the official email today telling us to beware of the scaffolding going up in the next week! So of course I had to take some before pictures!! here is the front of the house... the big lump of dirt there is usually our parking spot!
Here is a picture of the back of the house.. the lower half is ours and this is where the work started today. They were removing all the paving stones from our patio area... its going to be replaced with new decking for us and above for them.
Glad I don't have to do any of this work! Yikes...
The shed was moved from right close to the house... it actually was about 10 feet from our door... this move was being worked on for, well, since we moved in... last weekend a huge group of guys showed up and the next thing you know, the shed was in the corner and this HUGE back yard was revealed!
I hope we get to keep the palm tree... I love that tree...
I will post more pictures as things change... its kind of exciting, I hope the landscaping happens soon also!!
Jeanie gave Cali a new 'baby' which she was just thrilled with!
On saturday morning we all got in Julie's car and drove out to Vernon... our goal was to get huge tomatoes at Mitz's Farm where we used to get awesome produce... This was lunch at Denny's in Vernon.
We decided to see how things looked at our old Cabin and maybe say hi to Wally if he was around. We ended up not even recognizing our old spot... the only things left were the cabin and the outhouse that was painted blue! Wally is no longer on the lake either, he sold his cabin last October due to health issues. It was sad to see how things ended up, but we still have all the great memories!
Jeanie entertaining Cali while we made the drive back to Kamloops looking for some sort of fruit or veggie stand along the way... where did they all go??
We finally found a small farm in Westwold that had a fun little store with gifts and produce and lots of cool old displays around (see below).
After a long day of driving around... relaxing at the house... Dad was having a good time confusing Cali (they were looking at a Map book and Dad kep asking Cali 'do you see a kitty?' etc)
Dad putting together one of his famous breakfasts this morning! Waffles, blueberry pancakes, fruit and bacon! Yummmm
We took Cali to the river to wear her out before the drive back home again.
Dad and Cali playing in the water park
I think they were looking at a bicycle... either that or its just another goofy pic!
Checking out the interesting bark on the tree....
There were lots of flowers in this park... the fountain had been turned into a huge flower pot
Playing in the park with Grandpa! 
Cali thought it looked like fun... mommy and auntie Holly playing on the teeter totter so she decided to join us! (Julie and I have a long history on this particular toy)
Thanks again for a fun time everyone!
