Single Weekend & Shantel's Birthday

James, and a bunch of guys went up north for a weekend with Brendon - who was getting married in a couple weeks. So they did a weekend of quading and relaxing at a cottage. :)
James managed to find this quad on kjijiji and buy it in time for the weekend. (with the purpose of re-selling it later on) So, before he left with Mark, the kids-with friend Kayla- sat on top of it before they headed off.
 The weekend went well although I do not like being a single mom that is for sure. :) I have great respect for you woman out there that run the home, and care and serve your children alone.
I'm thankful that it went smooth, and quite quickly as there was lots going on. For one - dear Shantel turned 20! So, a lady in our church hosted a potluck evening party at her farm.
Karen tried giving the kids rides on their pony, but....
....it didn't work out so well. :) There were too many kids around, poor pony. Katy did get a quick turn before it was decided to leave the animal in peace.

Bre and Peyton - trying to stay warm on the cold evening. :)  
Oma walking around the farm with Laura. 
Erik, beside a beloved tractor. 
Some of the kids with the pig Wilbur - such a cute name!  
Beautiful Shantel, about to cut her cake! There were s'mores, and a lovely bonfire to finish off the night.
