3rd Annual Adoption Walk With Me




This years walk was the best! Great prizes, great help from volunteers (a singles ward service committee!) an awesome balloon arch (made by Dan!) free burritos from Chipotle, and be-au-ti-ful weather! Hooray for adoption. Hope you can come next year!
'Orange' you glad for adoption!?

Lest We Forget...


May we all take a moment today at remember all those who paid for our freedoms...

In Flanders Fields
By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918)
Canadian Army

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Happy Halloweiner!



Yes, we are a little late with posting... Much has been going on in the Lowe home. This year we were none other than the spinach loving popeye, olive oyl and brutus/ bluto... Elliott enjoyed kicking his way through the leaves to a couple houses in our neighbourhood. Looking at lit pumpkins and wanting to go in to the peoples homes...

Good times.
