A walk in the park...

The flowers and foliage in Halifax's Public Gardens were spectacular last week!!















I took the above photos while out for a lunch time walk with my sister, Lynn:

My baby is engaged!!

Much excitement at our house this evening!!  Sara and her boyfriend Jake (now fiancĂ©!) came home for the evening.  They've been contemplating the idea of getting engaged for a while and have been looking at rings and pondering wedding plans, but hadn't made it official.  Unbeknownst to Sara, Jake had gone out and bought the ring she liked, and he gave it to her after supper.  We are THRILLED!!!  I feel blessed to have Jake become part of our family.

Here are some photos - aren't they beautiful together??! :)

Flash Mob...and I was there!

I was involved with Intermediates at Conference this past weekend, and will write an entry about it soon, but in the meantime, enjoy this video!! 


This flash mob happened one day in the cafeteria.  We were upstairs with the Intermediates (12-15 yr olds) when Youth Forum (15-19ish yr olds) down below broke out into the song "Praise". My daughter Moira and Val's daughters Kaleigh and Sarah were with Youth Forum, and are part of the mob. It was an amazing and uplifting and exuberant few moments!!





Edited to add the link to Youth Forum's facebook page if you'd prefer to watch it in HD:
