 Almighty love by thy mysterious power In wisdom guide With faith and freedom dow'r Be ours a nation evermore That no oppression blights Where justice rules from shore to shore From lakes to nothern lights May love alone For wrong atone Lord of the lands make Canada Thine own Lord of the Lands make Canada Thine own After brunch July 1st, 2013 those that were here went out to the flag pole and had a small devotional and singing time. May God bring revival to our needy nation Yes, the wedding is only 3 months away!!! Waiting w. smiles  The river was up quite a bit - the river was moving nicely  Taking a break  Looks a little out of proportion:)  *smile*  Was a great canoe trip:) Jonathan kept us entertained - wanting to tip anyone that came in sight!  Some of Mark's nephews were down - so they joined us - our boys loved having them We got back from the canoe trip and all the boys wanted to go...
