Lake Louise

This last weekend we went to Lake Louise to a friends' cabin.  Had to snowmachine out there.  Had a blast all weekend playing games, playing outside, snowmachining, snowshoeing, and just hanging out.  Joachim is quite the snowmachine operator - and a speed demon.  When he was in control he had the sled going about 65 mph through the powder!

Both girls fell asleep on the ride back to the truck from the cabin!

The Stoic's 7th Birthday!

The Stoic celebrated his 7th birthday in the beginning of April.  He had some friends come over after school on Friday and spent the afternoon playing.  The next day Grandma and Grandpa came up from Homer and Aunt Cyp came over for a small family gathering.

So I guess we have kind of forgotten about this blog.  It has been another year since posting.  And like I'm sure in any family lots has happened.  The most joyous was the birth of baby Labrecque 4!   He is already six months, crawling and a happy baby.  

Here is a very small sampling of our last year.

We were able to take a family vacation to San Jose, CA for my brothers wedding and after were able to go to Portland, OR to visit my sister.  

The last post for this blog was at Pascha 2012.  We are now at the beginning of Lent 2013.  Have a blessed Lent!
