Lily did a good job...

... NOT catching herself on her hands when she fell yesterday (it could injure her arm again). She decided to do a faceplant in the gravel instead. She spit out blood and stones, but thankfully not teeth, and looks a little scraped up now.



Other than that we had a great weekend! The weather was very nice so the kids spent Saturday and Sunday afternoon in the yard. We were told not to expect this kind of weather in Saskatoon; it's hard to imagine right now. I went for a run around noon today and passed some chickens that were pressed flat against the wall of a barn. They looked at me over their shoulders (do chickens have shoulders?), and it was the funniest sight ever! I then realized why they were doing it: the only shade in the yard was by a little tree, thrown against that wall. I was sweating like crazy myself, so total sympathy on my part. But I digress - here are the yard pics:

Neil made grilled cheese sandwiches for supper and we had a picnic. They loved it!

And I know I should be packing and getting the house ready, but this was more fun! Finn will have a little farewell celebration with his preschool class tomorrow, so I made this cake for him to bring.

And here, last but not least, a message from Lily!
