More Kelowna Pics...

Some more pictures from our Kelowna trip...



One morning, Grandpa Clark put the girls to work cleaning up some trimmings and putting them in the compost. He even paid them for their work. They were very excited about their "job" and took it very seriously. When she was finished, Ella wrote a note that said "job done."







They took their earnings to Moolics to buy some ice cream! In true Ella fashion, Ella also made some cards for the people scooping the ice cream.








We did a photo shoot after church on Sunday. Here are the cousins-to-be. The question is are they girls, boys, one of each??





Ella continues to love journaling and often journals in the car. Uncle was sitting beside her to take a picture of her in action.



One of the goats was trying to eat Karis' tutu. Karis said "oh, oh, he's eating it, he's eating my skirt, oh oh!"


We visited the Kangaroo Zoo. Juliette was truly in her element and loved petting all of the animals!




Ella loves her uncle and she usually placed her flip flops inside his when she came in the house.

Kelowna

We spent the past week up in Kelowna. We had lots of time visiting with Grandpa Clark, Uncle Matt, and Auntie Jaynie. It was so fun to see Auntie Jaynie's baby bump. Spencer and I can't wait to have a nephew / niece and our girls are thrilled about having a cousin.



Karis got her first haircut from Auntie Jaynie.



Juju got a haircut too.



We played ping-pong in the garage.




Ella got her haircut, and so did I! That's a lot of Lafleur girl haircuts. Thanks Auntie Jaynie!







Ella saying hello to her cousin.


Our girls were very adventuresome in the pool. They enjoyed jumping off the side and were happy to dunk their heads right under the water.








We visited the Kangaroo Farm. Juliette was truly in her element :)




Miss Eileen came to visit and she bought the girls a book called "Ella Bella Ballerina".







Karis was fearless in the water and spent a lot of time swimming around on a noodle (all by herself). She would sometimes dunk right under water and say "I went under".







2 girls relaxing and Karis doing push-ups. No wonder she's so strong :)

A Special Guest

A couple of weeks ago Hailey came and spent a couple of hours at our house. Karis has always been very fond of Hailey and was really excited to have her here (so were the rest of us :) It was fun to get a preview of what life with 4 girls may be like.
