June 10, and another attempt at a quick update. . .

Wow, time has really been getting past me lately! I tried to post this a few days ago, but it got eaten or evaporated somehow. . . Since my last successful post a few things have happened:

• Ron, Dax, Elizabeth and I all attended the annual inspection and general meeting for St. John Ambulance-Dax and Ellie took their oaths.
• Elizabeth competed with her school at a track and field meet.
  
• Mom and Debbie came up for a nice visit. While they were here, we got to attend the Highland Games and watch Kaili compete. She got 3rd place in the swords!
  
• Dax has completed bike and radio courses, he has one more day of training, then he can be a member of the Bike First Aid Squad with St John.
• The weather has finally gotten REALLY nice for a few days running now and I have been playing in the yard as often as work, chauffeur duties, and chores allow. We are also able to give the dryer a rest and use the clothesline--YAY!
• Dax and Elizabeth have also been to another first aid competition (this one included a banquet and dance)
• Ron has nearly completed his training and is taking on cases as a family history consultant as part of his service mission. . .just call him "Elder H." now ;-)
  
• Adam and Elizabeth performed together at music recital this evening. She played her clarinet, he his base clarinet and a friend accompanied them on the piano, then she played two piano pieces. It was really nice to hear them play together.
  
• Oh yeah, Costco opened here last week, so no more trips to Nanaimo for Costco stuff.
• We have a new Bishopric in our ward.
• The girls went to a climbing gym last evening.
• Tomorrow Ellie has a car wash fund raiser she is working, Adam and I will be at work and Ron will be headed to Victoria for the day with the other two for the Seminary grad/ Scripture Bowl/ Dance.

That's it for now, the bed is calling to me, then it is time to get up,deliver Ellie and get ready for work.
