Fantastic Fun with Friends

Last week two of our friends from Shediac - Keila and James Biddington - came up for the weekend! We had lots of fun! They came over on the shuttle on friday where we picked them up and took them skiing at Brookevale! It was their first time and by the end of the day they were literaly PROS!

On our way to the ski hill!!

The lovely Keila, Pauses for a pic with a view of the hill she would soon atempt to ski down!
Beautiful day for skiing!


Then on Saturday, Nadia and Jackson Burden came over and we had a baking/outdoor day! We enjoyed skidooing for a while until James suggested we have our own little bonfire back in the field! So we skidooed back to the field and made popcorn and enjoyed the fire on a cold day!

Waiting for "fire expert" James to get it started!

Winter Weekend Fun!

Two weekends ago we had our Young Peoples Thing. On Saturday there is a bunch of activities for the young folks outside, and then some indoor activities based on a spiritual aspect (this years: Getting to know our Awesome God). Then, on Sunday we have our all day meeting.
The weather was quite messy the night before so in the morning we were glad to see that the ice covered trees were the only ones showing any signs of the previous nights storm. 
Breakfast with the crew who was staying with us for the weekend 
We did skits in the gym after the outdoor events






After the gym activities there was food and singing at the community hall
