New York bound!!

Hey Everyone, Blake and I get to be a little closer to most of you guys next weekend. We are going to New York!! This has definitely been one of those dream locations for me. I want to see all the hot spots...Central Park, Statue of Liberty, Ground Zero, and of course so much more. We get to be there for 3 nights, so 4 days!!! I am so looking forward to it! Blake has been like 4 times...yeah, not fair, so finally I get to go. One of our closest friends (we both are celebrating 5 years of marriage this year) are going with us. They are going to be our little tour guides because they each have been so many times. Have I mentioned I am soooooo looking forward to it?! We leave next Wednesday (27th) and return on Sunday. My mom, Allie and Blake's mom are going to be watching Aubrey Rose. I will wave hi when I see St. Catharines way off in the distance. Miss you guys! Love ya! ~Cherie

Hi Fam, I just wanted to let you all know that Christy called me and let me know that U.Harold is taking over the P10 plan and from my understanding will conf. call all the siblings. So I am not leaving you hanging, I have just been redirected. Hope it happens so we can meet all of these new baby additions!!! Every blessing, Andrea

Jeremy is Graduating!

On a side note Cherie how do I change my blog name? hellllppp the newbie!!

Penner News!

Hi All. It's me again. Not sure why I'm the only person posting these days, but I guess we'll see how many people are still reading this by the number of comments I get on this next piece of news..... Scott and I are expecting another baby! Due at the end of November. We're very excited and expect all of you to come back to visit him/her. Failing that, we'll bring him/her to you at P10. Love you all. Have a great day! Sheri

Maddie's B-day

Hi All! It was Madalyn's 3rd birthday last week (April 28th) and I thought I'd pass on some pic's. The first one is of her and GG last year on their birthdays, blowing out the candles (they were only 2 days (and 85 years) apart). The second one is this year with her cake (Jessica made it for her). We were able to celebrate most of the day outside in the sun, which is a luxury in Canada at this time of the year. Hope you're all doing well!

Summer Begins!

Hey Everybody! Ohh, how I miss you all. Andrea, that email you sent out about the P10 vacation got me so excited. Also, I absolutely loved the excel spreadsheet... haha, so organzied and wonderful! Thanks for all your hard work on that. I thought I should send out an update to keep this blog going. I haven't done one in about.. forever. So - I am all done my first year of university! It went by so fast... it was an amazing year and I enjoyed almost every moment of it. Dorm life got to be old by the end of it, yet once the end was there I got very nostalgic. Having everybody there in one place was amazing... life was one big social gathering! However, I am also so excited for next September, as I am living with five amazing people. We have an adorable little house... we're so excited to paint, and decorate, and barbeque, and do all those wonderful housewarming things. As for now, I'm home for the summer, and very glad to be! I'm working in the proshop at Deer Creek, a golf course that's pretty close to here. I really like it. I have a great boss and the people are all so friendly. Golfers are in very good moods when they come into the proshop, so it's a nice, happy, social place to work. I'm getting to know all the regulars... it's fun! I have a few people waiting for me to get them free golf... mostly my boyfriend Luke. However, Lydia is also waiting for me to get her some discounts at the Keg - it's a steakhouse restaurant. I worked there last year, and might give them a call. I have yet to do that.. I've been getting a ton of shifts at the golf course so it's kind of optional, but we'll see. I hope you all are doing well... humour me and give everybody an update! I love you all, em p.s. here's a picture of me in my dorm room - how I loved the place. :)

Aubrey Rose turned 1!!

So I thought Sheri did a wonderful job at rejuvenating our blog. Her work inspired me to do an update as well. We have been having fun in Cali. The weather has been absolutely beautiful here. I am in shorts and short sleeve and it feels nice! Is there still snow up in Canada?! The biggest news around our house is Aubrey Rose turned ONE! You don't think those milestones are as big of a deal until you have your own child. Or at least that was my take on it. :) We had a fun party at our house to celebrate. I sent an email to a bunch of you with more pictures. If you did not get the email...believe me I am not about leaving anyone out ever...you can email me at cherie@smittcamp.com. So just let me know! I try to send updates regularly. Or you can keep updated with Blake, Aubrey Rose and I on our blog at smittcamp.blogspot.com. Here are a couple of pics from Fresno...

Chelsey and I love to spend as much time together as possible. She is nanny for two different families, one on Monday and one on Wednesday. We love to have playdates because than Chelsey and I can have our own playdate! We love it! One of our playdates, we took her two boys to a place called PumpItUp. The boys loved it. Aubrey Rose...not so much! She preferred the solid ground rather than the blown up fun houses. Chelsey and I were so hot and sweating after trying to keep up with the boys. It was so fun!
