Fall is here and we love it. This summer was busy an fall seems a lot slower. Saidey has been in Pre school for about a month and she loves it. She was devastated when she had to miss 2 days for a trip to BC.
Some exciting things have been happening. On October 1st we Got a new Niece and a new Nephew! ( Not even twins, what are the chances)
Last week we found a chain link fence on Kijiji that is almost big enough to go around our whole yard so Ben has started working on that. The girls are very excited because sometimes they are scared to go outside because of big dogs running through our yard.
And we got family pictures taken when we were in BC, thanks Jackie!!! Here is a few of my favorites
Awww
Love It!
The reason we were in BC was because Bens Opa VanOene Passed away. Opa was a very special man. He was a Minister for many years retireing 2 years before Ben was born. He continued to preach until two weeks before he passed away giving his 7210th sermon.
We are very thankful that Opa and Oma were able to travel all the way here from BC in 2008 so that Opa could officiate our wedding, that will always be very special!
I will remember Opa as happy man. He was always excited to see us when we came to vist, alwys giving us a hug and a kiss on the cheek. It was nice to vist Opa and Oma at there house, he always dug out some toys for Saidey and Hannah to play with and never seemed nervous or grumpy if the girls came into there living room filled filled with nick nacks and pictures.
We were not able to vist Opa while he was sick, but we did get to see him on Facetime over the computer while he was in the hospital. It was shocking to see him so sick, when just 3 short months before that we were sitting on Bens parents patio with him having coffee and he seemed so alive and healthy!
Opa was a happy healthy Christian man who lived a good life, and we know he is in a better place now. We do grieve especially with Oma , as she now has to adjust to life without Opa, and move into a new place. We pray for her often and hope she is doing well.
