Wetter is.... er.... better?






So today we woke up and this strange shining orb was in the sky. Yes, it was a beautiful sunny day! We had planned to hit the library with the Kwan boys but lo and behold there was sun! Second Beach called us and away we went! The kids did really well. Milo is so sweet! He is very careful and he was really good at reminding Maeve what is safe and what is not ie. it is not safe to go too far without "the" parents! Angela looks good and great and I had a fantastic day! Theo is a clever little boy with LOTS of words! Seems he may have a strong preference for things coloured blue and you can't fool hiim either, he knows what is blue and what isn't! We walked from our place on richards/robson up davie to english bay and then along the seawall. FANFRIGGINGTASTIC i LOVE vancouver!!! It was so great... the sea.. oh the glorious sea!!! the mountains.. oh everything was so nice! So sorry, i digress! Anyhoo, along our walk up davie Maeve was in heaven... there are rainbow banners all the way to english bay and PINK.. yes PINK bus stops and benches! Maeve was in heaven and Theo.. well, he may not have liked it so much! hahaha all in all a great day for me. The kids.. well, they seemed to have fun too!

Dang, First Family Post,

Wow, looks very....dismal and grey, It must be vancouvers way of easing you into the sun, considering you came from people that shriek and run screaming from the very same glowing orb in the sky. Its sort of the opposite here where they embrace the sun, however do to being of poor genetic stock(english) they have the solar resilience of a rat embryo and they let themselves bake and blister to the point here, that they are debating in the drug store weather to get aloe vera or meat tenderizer to apply to thier pink and pimply skin. Anyhow glad you are breathing in the fresh mountain air, I miss them. Oh and the funny looking short people you live with...no not mom.

Aw, the girls look so adorable as usual! I love second Beach too. That sounds like a fun outing. You sound great and such an enthusiastic attitude after such a long and trying journey. Is Maeve wondering what happened to Leamington Spa? I hope the transition is a smooth one for them.

Tig anywhere that your family live is a great place. Vashti is the epicentre of our family and we all orbit around her. I will ignore the short funny looking comment as I too, viewed the utube of my surprise...aw well at least most of you are here. You will come home when you feel the urge to have children. Watching the cuzzins was so amazing. Maeve and Makenna just love one another so much. Makenna made me cry cuz when she was sitting with Auntie Dan for a brief moment she looked sad and I asked her why and she said "I miss Siobhan". Made me cry too. We all missed her.
Anyway get preggers and come home you two. (well in a year or so anyway) your beautiful baby will make the others want more!!!
Heh heh heh
love
