Late March, Sara and I took a trip to Vancouver Island with Jade and Willow. We visited Sara's parents and spent the weekend in Qualicum Beach; visited Sara's brother James and his wife Sarah and had fun with our niece Annika and nephew Kai; went for a nice morning hike on trails with Heather and her dogs Cedar and Dingo; and spent some relaxing time with family. An awesome 4-day trip. Look for the complete photo album next week.
