Time and time again


Adam bought a watch, the day before we left Edmonton. It is quite the watch actually, it does our laundry and acts as a nanny when we need some time alone.
The concept of time started a train of thought that has followed us to our present location in Kelowna BC.

Last night, we stayed in Golden BC. Going through the Kicking horse pass was humbling, to say the least. The timelessness of the mountains reminded me of how young we are (something that is nice to feel at the grand old age of 32). Then, in the morning, Adam took a picture of our two girls, reminding me again of how fast time flies.
We unexpectedly made great time through the Rogers Pass, which is 1345 metres above sea level and arrived in Kelowna ahead of schedule. The beauty of this trip though, is that we don't really have to be anywhere on time.
Our van was really great and we have been having a wonderful time. One quote from Maia for the day...Maia told me "to be cute, ok?!"
Love to everyone who has sent their well wishes and made comments. They are the first thing we check when we stop for the day.

Ahhh my luvvies, finally a moment to check this out! Only a sec though, got to get back to school. We just spent Easter wknd in hospital having discovered a hernia in lil Keigan friday afternoon (good friday became trauma friday). All is repaired and we now have a much happier baby! Happy thoughts and support slightly tinged with envy winging their way westwards.

Totally unrelated to this blog-do you have Roberta's phone #? We're trying to get some mail sent to us that was mailed to Edmonton.

Hello Emilie and family, I'm sorry I didn't get to say a good bye to you before you left - but I am thoroughly enjoying following you around on your travels.
Take care, Sandra and I (and the rest of wine club) are thinking of you ...
