SNOWBIRDS

Today we had the privilege of being at the Air Force Base for the Snowbirds Acceptance Show. The Snowbirds have been practicing for 6 months and today they performed their show for the Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan to get approval to start their show season. Because of Dad's history with the RCAF, we were able to obtain a special invitation to be at the event which was only for dignitaries & military personnel. What a treat!

Some of these jets, The Hawk, were departing before the show started.

This is Laura & her friend Rebecca, whose Dad is the Chaplain at the Air Force Base.

MOM & DAD'S VISIT

We've been having a great visit with mom & dad. Easter Sunday we went to a friend's farm for a nice afternoon & visiting and a delicious Easter dinner. Thanks to our friend Paul who gave us all the chance to try our hand at clay shooting. Dad did great hitting the clay about 50% of the time.

This is Laura & her friend Jessica on the quad. The two girls disappeared for quite a while riding around the prairies!

These are our very hospitable hosts and our good friends Leanne & Paul.

As you might have guessed, we've made a few trips out to the air force base, 15 Wing Moose Jaw, which is located about 10 minutes south of our house. We see these planes flying over our house almost on a daily basis.

Between shooting rifles & watching planes, I guess the excitement was a little too much for Dad...

LAURA'S WALL

Since Laura is living in the concrete jungle downstairs and doesn't have a "room" yet, we put a temporary wall of curtains to give her some privacy. Now she has her own hideaway, although it's not very soundproof!

REGINA HOME SHOW

These are some pictures of the kids at the Home & Garden Show in Regina that we attended this past weekend.

ANDREW & MOMMY AT THE AIR FORCE BASE

Andrew and I had some spare time this week alone so we decided to go park on the highway outside 15 Wing Moose Jaw and watch the airplanes (notice the plane behind Andrew).
