BC in October

filled up my cup last week in BC.

my trip was inspired by mom's stroke, who miraculously regained movement in her right arm & leg & was back at home by the time I got there. So nice to spend some time together & have a bit of a break. (Joel was home with the kids all week!)

with Des & mom
