Mid-Week Update

My aunt, uncle and cousins have been visiting from Alberta the last few days. It is always nice to catch up with all of them. We don't see them as often as we would like to.

On Sunday Aunty Sherry and I spent a whole day (12+ hours) shopping in the States. You haven't experienced shopping until you have shopped with Aunty Sherry :-) We had lots of fun and got a few bargains along the way. I bought Hannah and Victoria all of their spring and summer wardrobes and got some great deals at Target.

Of course an Aunty Sherry shopping experience is not complete until you pay a visit and leave a 'tip' with the customs officers at the Aldergrove border crossing. The nice customs lady at that crossing knows us so well that when we walked into the office she said 'You two again?!?'

My cousins Jaden and Logan spent the night here on Monday and Tuesday night. Hannah was SO excited to have them here for a sleepover and Tuesday morning they came to Hannah's 'Party Day' at preschool. Hannah put on quite a show for them at Party Day she was really dancing up a storm :-)

Tuesday afternoon after we picked Hannah up from school I took them all to The Great Escape. They all had lots of fun running around. Jaden and Logan played hide and seek with Hannah in the big Jungle play area which she loved and then Jaden and Logan played some Laser Tag.

Last night we went to 'The Marble Slab' for ice cream and it was yummy!! Good thing I have boot camp tonight so I can run it all off!

Victoria gave up her room for Jaden and Logan to sleep in and she bunked with Hannah in Hannah's room. Hannah was pretty good about sharing her room with Victoria but Victoria woke up early both mornings calling 'Jadie! Jadie! Jadie!' down the hallway. I don't think Jaden enjoyed the early morning wake up call ;-)

Aunty Sherry and Uncle Les picked Jaden and Logan up this morning and they were heading down to the States to visit some more family before heading back to Alberta sometime this weekend.

Both Hannah and Victoria were pretty tired from all the excitement of having house guests... both girls are crashed in their rooms right now having a long nap!

I'm off to boot camp tonight and then to Earl's for a much needed Mom's night out with friends :-)

Happy Wednesday everyone!
