Sicamous House

We took possession of our new lake house in Sicamous this past weekend with Sharleen and Dan and hauled 2 trailers of furniture and stuff out on Friday.  My neice and her boyfriend came as well to help with the loading and cleaning for the weekend.  We pulled up to the house and were happy to see very little snow and signs that spring really is coming as the plants are poking out of the ground.  This was while Calgary was under a major snowstorm that left us with 9" or so of heavy wet snow!

We started to put furniture together and  started cleaning right away but Cierra's bunkbeds did not make it together Friday night.  She was a little worried about this so Kali and Jared decided to help her build a fort in her room to distract and entertain her.  We spent how much on a house and all she really wanted was a cardboard shack decorated on the outside of course! 



Then the engineers and architectural controls kicked in!!!  Of course it had to fit around her mattress and be structurally sound! 




And this is where she slept the first night.  Saturday morning the bunkbeds went together and life was great!  She loves her room and her bed and cannot wait to have friends come and sleep in her beds!!

We did make some time to get out  and enjoy the lovely spring day on Sunday!





So that is what our first weekend at the lake looked like!!!  I also want to wish my big sister Sharleen and her husband Dan a very happy 25th anniversay today as well.
