This past weekend Michel's two eldest grandchildren Khayden and Tianna came from Kelowna to visit us. 










It happened to be "Founder's Day" here in Greenwood, so we went downtown on Saturday to take in the festivities. We caught the last half of the parade 'cause we were a little late getting there and also missed the pancake breakfast, but the kids (old and young) had a good time wandering around, looking at the vender's wares. 

It was very hot so we didn't spend the entire day downtown. Instead we came back home and Michel and kids enjoyed the cool water in the creek. They tried their hand at gold panning. I guess they weren't really 'panning', they were digging in the dirt and pouring the dirt into a sluice box. Needless to say they didn't find gold. But they enjoyed themselves and managed to keep busy for the afternoon.  

 This here is a picture of Tianna and Grandpa digging the dirt.....

Michel took them up to Jewel Lake to swim on Sunday and in the evening we had a fire and cooked pie tarts. We ate lots, laughed lots and really enjoyed their visit.
