We are so sad to be saying goodbye. We have had a lot of fun over the past week and we want to thank Grace and her team for inviting us to guest blog. We also want to thank all of the readers for making our efforts so worthwhile.

Our final item of business is to announce the winner of our giveaway. We received SO MANY entries so a huge ‘thank you’ to everybody who submitted an image. It was an incredibly difficult decision as so many of you took wonderful pictures but the winner is….

by Erin Poettcker – a summer day with sisters and cousins on the Thompson River.

We also had to post these runner-ups….
