Papa!

We have been so blessed this summer with visits from our parents - Sully has loved it!  This past weekend my dad had to be in Chilliwack for work so he made a long weekend visit out of his trip!  I worked a few nightshifts while dad was visiting so Sully got some good quality time with his Papa - they climbed hills, played at parks, went for walks etc - Sully loved it!

Thank you for coming to visit Dad!  Sully misses you already!

Mahood!

We spent an extra long weekend last week with this fun crew...

at this BEAUTIFUL location!!!

it was serene

a little slice of paradise!

here's me with my 14 week bump...the fetus even liked our time away and treated me very well!

Michelle was our wonderful photographer for our time away 

Michelle's hubby Russ and her cute little man Patrick

Tony and sweet baby London

Ev - super mama of two with Lily and London

Sully enjoyed some quality fishing time (as did his dad!)

the babies played for hours in the sand

how cute is this picture - magazine worthy for sure!

the adults even found time for a little R&R

this is the boys the evening of their all day hiking/fishing adventure!

so many great pictures to share...

we took the kids out fishing one evening after supper

I even tried my hand at the old rod

AND...look closely - I GOT one - unfortunelty it got away on me...I panicked a bit :)

but it was exciting!

we're on a boat!

the men caught us some fish - the kids were pumped

Russ (the beginner fisherman) caught the big catch of the weekend!

precious family time was had by all!

on our way home we stopped and took a brief hike to two different waterfalls - there are so many hidden gems in BC - so much beauty to be experienced!

We had such a great time with these wonderful people - we are so thankful for these friendships - it's fun to watch our families grow up together!  Thanks Tony & Ev for sharing your little piece of paradise with us!!!

Baby Kaminski the Second!

Well if you haven't heard yet...we are PREGNANT with Baby Kaminski the SECOND!!!  We are indeed blessed!!!  And after a not so fun first trimester - I am excited to be welcoming my second trimester with open arms!

We actually found out about baby #2 while we were away on holidays this past June.  Here are some pictures of our "proof" of pregnancy on the beaches of Santa Barbara!

Sully has been busy preparing for his little brother/sister

our announcement to the world - we stuck with the shoe theme

Please pray with us as I grow this little person and as we tradition to becoming a family of 4!
