Fun with Family

I have a lot of catching up to do!  Even with my 'one line a day' journal I'm like 2 months behind!  While we were home there was so much going on all the time, it was difficult to just sit and write!  Now as I write this we're back to Australia and we've been here for 2 weeks and have yet to finish unpacking from the move we made BEFORE we flew home…. Life with two kids is so hectic and busy, but I'd take them over a clean house and updated journal any day :)  Here are some more pictures from our time at home.  Charlie was so spoiled for attention!

This one should have been with the last post - gingerbread houses!

We went to Millennium Place with some of Andrews family - Charlie had a great time, and Elly liked the water too!  With admission you get admission to everything, so we went to the little indoor playground after swimming

It was good for them to get some of their energy out!

While we were home we got to have some fun 'Daniel Parties'  they're always a good time!

ZOO LIGHTS

Charlie was quite excited to see the elephant!

Elly was quite excited in the elephant enclosure to get out of her carrier!

Family Picture!

Colorful ice house!

We got matching tattoos! Of the "Bad big wolf" as Charlie calls him!  He became OBSESSED with the story of the three little pigs while we were home.  He wanted to play it all the time, and i even found him in the closet telling himself the story!

One Saturday they had "The Grinch" playing at the theatre for $2.50 a ticket, so Amy and I took Charlie!  He ran around the theatre for the second half of the movie...

Out past Leduc there is a farm that sets out tons of light displays!  So one Sunday we met Sarah's family out there and spent a while walking around!

Sleigh Ride!

We spent a day at the Waterpark!  Charlie had so much fun and for days after was asking to go to the Waterpark!

Group shot!  Charlie LOVED all the watersides (well the ones he was big enough to go on!)

This girl has the best smile!

Grandma spent a lot of time watching the children so we could go out - thanks mom!

Amy was reading to the children and Charlie just fell right asleep!

Under 2's are free to Galaxyland with one adult to accompany them - Charlie was a bit nervous at first, but warmed up to the idea of rides after not too long!

Charlie and Mary riding the cups!

Aunt Amy is obsessed with cotton candy, so we took Charlie to get the best kind ever!

Well the next post is up to Christmas Eve and New Years! I'm getting there...
