Hi everyone!
Just a little note to let you know that we have been back in Canada since Mid May and we have been living in our little cottage since our arrival in Saskatchewan. The kids went back to school for the last month and half and truly enjoyed being away from their parents and seeing their friends again. To tell you the truth their parents also enjoyed their time without them, however it is too bad that the weather has been miserable. Darren and I had this romantic idea to go fishing or even walking around the neighborhood but it rained and rained and rained some more. We wish we would have stayed in Hawaii perhaps a little longer, however when we left Hawaii we stop in Vancouver to visit our friends Ken, Jennifer, Lexy and Liam Burgess as well as our friends Tony and Sam and Darren’s coworker Oogie and his wife Stella. It was so nice to see everyone and was certainly treated like Royalty. From Vancouver we took the Ferry to Victoria and visited with Darren’s family Dan and Ruth Dempsey. Again we were treated like kings and Queens. We loved Victoria, I think I could live there no problem!! We also rented a car from Vancouver to Kelowna to visit Darren’s sister Melanie, her husband Brian, Graeme and Candice. We surprise Brian for his 40th Birthday Party.
Anyway there is lots to say and Darren is sharpening his pencil to finish this blog and start on his book.
Thank you for everyone’s support and all the great words of encouragement. The trip was not easy, however it was priceless. We have learned to appreciate what we have and perhaps live a better life bacause of it. Anyone interested to do something like this, come and see us or wait for Darren’s book to come out on the bookstore shelves

I can’t wait to read your book Darren. Now that hockey is over, we definitely have to get together and catch up. I think I have a 2 week window … lol Talk to you soon. By the way, what number can I reach you at?
