I was hoping we'd get some time to go out later this afternoon with Essi visiting Vancouver with her family. But no, the weather was very authentic Vancouver drizzle and rain all day and warnings issued for the next day. Kept my camera safe and covered. So glad to have you guys over anyways :) Hope to get to see you before you're heading to the Island!

The Chinese Lanterns I picked from the groceries store today, just because I was inspired by beautiful paintings the grade fours had made of these.
