Weekend

Well, all I can say is... I'm glad we didn't go camping after all! What a wet wet wet weekend!

Yesterday was a bit of a treat. Michael, Maeve and Uncle Kenny drove to check out a campsite we will stay at when dryer weather appears! So, while Daddy and Maeve were away, Madigan and I spent the whole day together! Here are some pics of Maeve and Uncle Kenny, and our potential campsite!




We had breakfast at De Dutch (my fave), with Auntie Sara, Jakers and Auntie Erin. AFter a less than great breaky(boo) we drove to kits for some retail therapy ! We didn't actually buy anything but we did use their bathrooms for Madigan! She is doing such a great job! After stolling 4th Ave for a bit, we called Gramma Mimi and red rovered her to the playground near her house! She came out and played with us for a bit before we had to get Sara to the ferry for Uncle Brad's bday bash!

Happy Birthday Uncle Brad!!

Erin took Madigan and I home and on the way I said, "I have to hit some of these garage sales for some extra chairs for the dining table." Then I was going on and on about how I don't have any weekends free so i can't hit the garagee sales. I look out the window and pabam... 4 free dining room chairs! Perfect!! I wedged them in Auntie Erin's car and we drove home!

After a shortish car nap, Madigan woke up and we hung out at home with Auntie Erin. "No Mommy, stop singing." is Madigan's longest sentence to date! How rude!!! I was singing some classic Charlotte Diamond. Apparently it wasn't up to snuff! We had some delicious burritos for dinner and Madigan went to bed at a relatively decent hour! Michael and Maeve got in around 9:30. I had them pick up this sweet dresser I picked up on craigs' list! Wahhooo it is actually pretty awesome too! I'll get pictures later! I'll leave you with pictures of me Maeve and our babushka.. or new baby... you choose!

You three look so gorgeous and your new baby is so adorable all swadled up! The potential camping spot looks fantastic-like a post card! Sadly, I never checked out any surrounding areas while living in Vancouver. I wish we could come along. Your uncle Kenny looks nice and you are so lucky to be surrounded by family and beauty. Good job on the furniture scores! My dream weekend would be an early brekkie out and then yard sale browsing all morning with coffee in hand. I miss you all.

You have such a cute little bambino. The rain sort of sucks. But, we had a great weekend too. Sounds like a great deal with the chairs. Nothing better than free.. Aunty Erin sounds like she is incredibly happy. Hope you are all well. Deb
