Welcome Ilka 😍

Welcome to our family Ilka 😘

You have already been here for one week! 

The traditional airport picture...looking jet lagged and yet excited too....




We have taken it slow and easy so not to overwhelm her. 😜 She's had a tour of LVR, orientation with other International students, checked out the gymnastics club, did some shopping, went to the beach, hiked Pulpit Rock, whitewater rafting, and checked out the Kokanee spawning!























One of the many forest fires around us. This one flared up as we were swimming at the beach. Oh how we desperately need some rain ☔️ 


....and made applesauce





I also got myself a new toy that we played with....



We got the giggles on this one...applesauce muffins....squished...😂😂😂


We made Spaetzle for dinner...OMG!!






This was after Ilka's taste test 😜 that's my story and I'm sticking to it!






It's gonna be a great year!

    Dear Mona, dear Brent,

    thank you for sharing these pictures with us. We feel very happy and relaxed that Ilka has the opportunity to stay with you. As we can see and already herad she is very happy and excited.Also we have the impression she is feeling safe and at home :-)
    Now that you have made "Spätzle" which is something very typical for our area we are sure that nothing can go wrong :-)
    We are looking forward to see the next pictures.
    Have a good time

  3. If I had known how easy it is to make Spaetzle I would have done it sooner...it is sooo much better than store bought!
