40th Anniversary & 1st Haircut

We all helped Gramma & Grampa celebrate their 40th wedding Anniversary. The girls enjoyed decorating the house as well.

The girls usually have way too much energy for Mommy & Daddy!

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to One and All

As always, our girls were very spoiled this year.

Christmas Eve (BRL) "Before Rescued Luggage"

Girls deciding which spot will be perfect for their stockings.
Since Santa joined Weight Watchers this past year, the girls decided to only give him a healthy snack on Christmas Eve. A glass of milk, a bowl of Life cereal and a pro-biotic fruit yogurt. YUMMY!!

Of course Santa 'locks down' our living room Christmas Eve just in case there are any sleep walkers being nosey. Both girls waited patiently while we all had breakfast and Mommy & Daddy showered before present opening.

Stockings get opened first, although the girls had one 'bigger' present to open that Santa couldn't really wrap that well.

Next we opened the presents from under the tree.

Both girls got vacuums, so they can now help Mommy & Daddy clean up. Our youngest decided to do a quick clean up right away!

"Hi Elmo"

After present opening at home, we drove to Ottawa to surprise Gramma and Grampa and stay with the girls Aunt & Uncle.

More presents - THANK YOU!

A couple weeks later, we had a lovely day of more presents and lots of food at the other Aunts house.

Our Luggage Has Arrived!!

UPDATE: We finally got a call at around 11:00 p.m. Christmas Eve from the Air Canada that our luggage had arrived at the London Airport. They offered to get a courier service to deliver them to our door, but we decided that since it was late and we were planning to leave for Ottawa the next morning (after present opening of course) that we would pick them up ourselves. When I got to the airport at around 11:30 pm, I saw approximately 150 bags sitting there waiting to be either picked up up or delivered. Apparently, it doesn't take much for bags to be delayed and unfortunately for us a number of flights were both delayed and/or cancelled completely the day we flew back home. Luckily for us, our bags had only been sitting in Toronto Pearson Airport for the day and simply missed our connecting flight to London. Nothing was missing from either suitcase, and both still had our address/name tags attached.

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!! Our blog will be updated with new pictures shortly.

Toronto Pearson International Airport had a nice kids play area that the girls enjoyed.

Cole, Caitlyn & Hannah played some tunes for us on the piano while in their convict outfits!

So precious!

Caitlyn seems to have her Mother's knack for organizing as seen here with her matching cards.
