Through rain, slush, sun and snow

We arrived home this afternoon and don't plan to go anywhere for a long time! We had a wonderful visit to the Lower Mainland. We were given many hugs, shared many meals, had some great laughs, spent too much money, and slept very little. The boys were real troopers, being very patient with all the new faces and places we introduced them to. On the first day of our trip home, we made it all the way to Vanderhoof, which made for a shorter day today. Max was up at 5:45 so we had a great head start and were home by 2:30. He's very happy to reacquaint himself with his toys and old mischief here at home. He still remembers how to open the broom closet and empty the contents of the carpet sweeper into a little pile on the floor ... crazy kid. After a week in the miserable pouring rain in Abbotsford, we came home to a warm, partly sunny day. And now, Paul just opened the blinds to discover big fat snowflakes pounding on our roof!

I had hoped to post some pictures of our trip for all my faithful readers, but forgot the camera in the truck and it's time for bed. Check back tomorrow.

  5. Thanks friends! It was great to see all of you there. I hope the pictures will get up tonight. We're on a blitz to clean the house so that's taking priority.
