Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! Well, the presents and chocolate were ample and abound, both of which made Rowan a very happy girl! After spending part of the morning checking out Easter gift bags, we all headed outside for an official egg hunt. Saturday night Nana, Michelle and I spent a few minutes stuffing a few dozen plastic eggs with chocolate treats, gummies, stickers and toys, and Uncle Chad strategically placed them around the yard. It took the kids all of 10 seconds to "get it" and they were off, gathering eggs in their baskets until they couldn't fit anymore. Guess Nana will know soon enough if we got them all or not! Very fun!!

Easter Road Trip - Cranbrook portion

Well, big surprise, Rowan was back in the swing at Nana and Papa's! We partnered up with Chad, Michelle and Kayden to head down to Cranbrook for part of the Easter weekend and while the weather could have been a little bit better, there was plenty of outside time anyways.

Rowan and Kayden were given some new cars to drive around the patio...more stuff for Nana and Papa to store!!

Nana set up a new little craft table to keep the kids entertained...complete with books, colouring, play-doh and stickers (that ultimately end up all over everything!). Thanks Nana!

Oh, and the chairs double as seating for the movies.....where's the popcorn?

Easter Road Trip - Calgary portion

As part of our Easter road trip we stopped in Calgary to spend some time with Baba, Gido, Pra-Baba, Auntie Lena, Makaila and Jackson. This was some outside activity on Easter Monday, and Rowan was thrilled to try out her new bike, which Makaila generously gave to her as she had outgrown it. I have to say, after arriving home and seeing it in her own garage, Rowan was very excited to see "my new bike!!"

The Further Adventures of "Hat Girl!"

Okay, so somet

imes she totally sucks me in and makes me participate in her whimsies! I know, not so flattering for me, but I think this is her rendition of us being "skater girls".
