Andreas' Party

We had a little party for Andreas' birthday featuring a pinata and a lot of bourbon.

Happy Birthday

Jonathan

Jonathan is doing well and is getting visits 2, 3 or 4 times a day from his parents, sister, admiring grandparents, aunts and uncles. He spends most of the time sleeping, but every once in a while we have a chance to see him awake with his eyes open. Kristen is also doing really well and is happy to be home.

Happy *0th Birthday Andreas!

Wow, who knew he would ever make it to such an advanced age. Amazing the power and resilience of the humble liver!

It's a Boy!

Congratulations to Andrew and Kristen with the arrival of a baby boy!

The lake just became a lot more fun with Dave and Clare's new boat!

The Patient

A very happy night as the patient is sprung from the Jubilee for a night out at Christie's Carriage house and a well deserved beer!

Sunshine Coast Trail Ride

We had a mountain biking adventure on the Sunshine Coast on the August 12/13 weekend with Great Exporations, a guiding company that does bike trips all over the world (www.greatexplorations.com). We rode from Halfmoon Bay to Langdale on single track on an organized 100km two day ride - Cynthia's first point-to-point mountain bike trip. It was hard work but lots of fun to be out on the amazing single track including Highway 102 and Highway 103, some epic single track. We were joined by friends Bryan and Wendi and met some great new friends and hope to see them next year! We both slept very well that Sunday night, Cynthia in particular!

Exploring the Backcountry

We decided to go exploring this weekend - we borrowed Harold's old truck and headed for the backcountry to Big Bar on the Fraser river. We had to cross the river on a reaction ferry, which uses the power of the current. This route we took goes from Clinton to Lillooet, about a five hour trip - the roads are in good shape, but are gravel and incredibly steep. We needed the clearance of the truck and four wheel drive in some areas and we needed to lock the hubs when we got stuck on a beach ... good thing we took the truck!

Mountain Biking Whistler

Cynthia and I spent this past weekend at the ranch in the Cariboo and decided to take the Duffy Lake road. We stopped in Whistler for some mountain biking on the way.

Four Soccer Balls, Six Cunninghams and a Fountain

We had an afternoon of soccer at the waters edge football pitch in False Creek (Vancouver). This fountain proved to be a great place to stop to wash off feet and soccer balls and a water fight on the way home. Max, Rebekah and Benjamin are all soccer dynamos!

Cunningham Invasion

Cynthia and I enjoyed (and survived) the invasion by the family Cunningham! Diane, Irwin, Max, Rebekah, Benjamin and Peter stopped in for a visit in Vancouver before we all headed to the island to enjoy the amazing summer weather.

Who's A Cute Little Kid!
