Connor's crazy about Jaden!
Well, to start off my Dad moved last Tuesday, and everything went relatively smooth, except for the temperature...-15 I believe! However, Brian's mom and dad graciously came down (with a large pot of chili & garlic bread in tow) to watch Mags, Trent, Ashleigh and Jaden while Carol and I helped Aunt Mare clean the old house and organize the new house. Thanks Oma and Opa! You both are so thoughtful and willing to help out! Carole offered to stay for the rest of the week to help Dad get settled and we were privileged to host her and her sweet children for a few nights. Mags and Trent were elated to have their cousins stay with us as were Kels and Connor. We had a very productive week at the new house and an enjoyable week of bonding...talking into the wee hours of the night when all the kids were sound asleep. Thanks so much Carole for all your help and good company...you're welcome anytime!!
Yawn, get on to the good stuff Ash...
The kids played for hours with very few "tiffs", we ended the week with some good old fashioned sledding, hope you aren't too sore Kev, worked up a good appetite outside and headed to King's Buffet for a delicious meal.
On Sunday Steve, Colleen and their kids joined Kev, Carole, Mom, Dad, Nicole and our crew for a spaghetti/lasagna dinner at Dad's new place. Afterwards we headed over to our place (around the corner now) so the kids could go skating and play for the evening. Trent and Keegan got into the tickle trunk (dress up trunk) and put on a little show. Cute huh?
