More June fun!

We were happy to support Reese's friend Jordan, in her journey to raise money towards her fight with Giant Axonal Neuropahty. Jordan has been in either Reese or Emerson's class since kindergarten and has undergone so many medical treatments and trials over the course of her short life, yet she still remains positive and upbeat!! She is so smiley and kind to all her classmates and friends, just a real sweetheart! Reese enjoyed visiting with Jordan at the Save-On-Foods fundraiser! I'm so glad we were able to stop by :)

Brownies wrapped up for Reese on June 6th with a year end ceremony and celebration! Reese had so much fun at Brownies this year, we were very impressed with the program. They learned, explored and had a blast! Thank you so much to her leaders who put so much time into organizing these fantastic activities! Reese will be moving on to Girl Guides next year!

Emerson had an awesome weekend with her friend Lueca for her 10th birthday!! Lueca's mom took Emerson, Lueca and another friend to Calgary for a one night sleepover in a hotel!! They shopped, swam at the hotel and visited the Calgary Zoo! Em had a blast :)

Blake's spring hockey season ended on June 9th with a final tournament. They had some really exciting games but didn't come away with a medal. Overall we had a really great experience with spring hockey and Blake is glad he played! He continued to develop his skills and killed it as a dman!! We made some new friends and had a lot of fun. Now we're all ready for a break from the rinks and I think Blake's body will be glad to have a rest from hockey.

On the 15th Blake finally got to celebrate his birthday with a friends party! He had a sleepover with 5 of his closest friends. They hung out in the basement for the most part and stayed up all night. Literally ALL night!!! The next day Blake was pretty good until the early evening when he crashed! The affects of the all-nighter hit him ;) He had a lot of fun though and would like another sleepover next year!

My friend and former co-worker, Jean, hosted a girls night at her house. She usually plans these nights once a year and goes all out! This years theme was Taco Tuesday! She is such an amazing party planner and host, we always have so much fun!! This year was no different! She made authentic Mexican cuisine, right down to the drinks and dessert!

On the 20th I picked Emerson up from school early and we headed to Legal! Emerson joined her Ukrainian dance friend Chloe for a performance at Chloe's school talent show!! It was so much fun to bring the girls together and Em and I really enjoyed the country drive :)

On the 22nd I had my first sleepover in my 30's ... lol! Even though one of my best friends lives just 40 min away, I rarely get to see her. So we planned a girls night and I spent the night at her house :) It was so much fun and so nice to spend some time together.

And I am now officially on summer vacation! So excited for a few months off and some sunny weather :)
