RichKat off to Mex - Little A off to Gramma's

4 days after our return from Kimberley, we're off on the road again. My cousin Anne-Marie is getting married in Mexico on Wednesday. Rich and I are heading down for the nuptials on Sunday.

Little Angela is still too young to even wear sunscreen so we asked Gramma if she would be willing to have her grand-daughter for the week. You all know the response of course. :)

Gramma and Angela are holding court at Gramma's house throughout the week. Weekend (next) will be spent at Cultus Lake along with Auntie Michelle and Uncle David. Cousin Samantha is helping out Gramma on both weekends. Thanks Samantha!

Since Rich didn't get to come to Kimberley, he's really looking forward to this week off. We'll be back just after BC Day. We're off to an all-inclusive near Cancun.

Mayan Riviera, here we come!

Back from Kimberley & Off to Mexico all in a week

PHEW! Talk about whirlwind! Wednesday, Angela and I (and Gramma too) returned from Kimberley where we had a great visit with Angela's Great-Nanny and Great-Aunts and Great-Uncle and a few cousins to boot.

It was a great visit. Angela turned on her charms and was a peach. We drove up over two days and same back. Stopping in Osoyoos both ways. Nice hotel there.

Now we're preparing for our trip to Mexico that starts on Sunday (6 am flight!). Angela is going to Gramma's house for the week. Cousin Samantha is spending time with them and Auntie Michelle and Uncle David are helping Gramma take Angela to the family cabin at Cultus Lake next weekend. A true sleep-over.

Rich and I return to our fair city next Sunday. No blogs while we're away as we're taking a true rest from all things techie. Big steps for us techno-dweebs.



PS: For those of you Mommies and Mommies-to-be on Facebook, I have now created the group as promised. Invitations have been sent out. If you want to be included, please let me know (email via facebook). One article is already posted. :)

Angela Dedicates Her Clothes to "Cousin Murky"

First let me explain Murky. Murky is Uncle Steve's pet turtle. They have had the turtle for a very long time. Like a member of the family. We've joked that Murky and Angela are cousins. :)

So, against popular belief, not ALL of Angela's clothes are pink. This little get-up is focused on green. Don't you just love the big "Murky" turtle on the onesie?



I wish I could record her sounds that go along with these images. She coo's and giggles and all the other fun sounds. He talks with her tongue hanging out even. ;)




BTW, facebook page should be coming in the next week or so. ;)

Happy Birthday Richard (July 11th). We're going to Spam-A-Lot to celebrate.
