Playground Fun

After seeing Sushi's fun at the playground, we decided to head out there ourselves.

Wheeeeeeeeeee!
Let's get this motocycle moving! Vrmmmmmmm!

My turn to drive!
Down the slide - see you at the bottom!

The 4 hour tour, 4 hour tour...

This past weekend, Cashew and I went on a road trip to see some friends in town for the weekend. We had driven over 2 hours and were nearly at our destination where we were looking forward to lunch and rest. When we reached the border, the officer asked me where the father of my child was! I told him that he was at home. Then, the border officer asked me if I had a letter. "A letter?" I said to myself. "No," I replied aloud. Then he told me that I would have to go inside to see the immigration officer. AGH! So, I parked and got Cashew out of the car and entered the office. We lined up and the immigration officer asked me where the father of my child was - again, I told them that he was at home. She then asked me if I had a letter. Again, I told them no. Next, she asked for a number where he could be reached. I gave her our home number but I wasn't sure if she'd be able to reach Spidey since I had talked to him not long ago and he had mentioned he was going to get his haircut. She asked me to take a seat - which I did not do - because I had already been sitting in the car for 2 hours. Cashew and I walked around the lobby while she called Spidey. Thankfully, he was still at home. She asked him if he knew I was taking Cashew across the border - of course, he answered yes. She advised him that next time we would need a letter. She also said that the letter would have to be notarized! Well, there won't be a next time. I'm applying for a Nexus Pass and our next trip will be when Spidey can go with us. Lesson learned!



We had a little birthday celebration compliments of GrandmaLu. A-Ma, thank you for the mango birthday cake. Cashew had a great time picking off the strawberry slices off the sides and eating them. Hmm, who ate the rest of the cake?

It was great to finally meet you, killerbees. What great weather we had. The view was amazing! Hope you consider moving out here someday :)

Somehow I don't think I'm in the right family picture. Thanks O, for sharing your 'crackers'! It was nice seeing your whole family - you make cute little noises Q. Take care all of you!

Unfortunately, we had a rough ride back home. Here's Cashew at around hour 2 of our drive - still waiting in the line-up. The border wait was 1.5 hours, Cashew couldn't nap while I drove plus, we hit some slow traffic after the border. Turned out to be 4 hour trip instead of the usual 2 -2.5 hr ride. But, we had fun visiting so many friends. Thanks to Pushi for babysitting 2 babies alone while the mommies attended Auntie Cricket's baby shower! Kudos!

Happy Easter!

Hooray, Sushi's family came to visit us on Easter weekend. Isn't she a doll? We even coordinated our sleeping schedules to make it easier on our parents - nice of us huh?


Ooh, look who I found - Easter Bunny...hmm, he looks bigger than in the books...

We took these pictures at the local aquarium - can you find the fish in the first picture? Aren't they amazing? So colourful!
