Calgary-Regina-Winnipeg-Minneapolis-Ann Arbor

For four days we drove from Calgary to Michigan and logged 3,000kilometers. We stayed in hotels with pools, made sandwiches in the back of the van and cruised through the prairies to make it in time for American Thanksgiving. I'd say it was worth it.. look at all the fun we've had so far!


For each day we were in the car I had a present for them to unwrap.. the silly putty was a big hit.



New princess jammies for grandma's house!!

Dinner with cousins Sarah and Aaron!

Crazy Wisdom bookstore in Ann Arbor puts on a tea with the fairies. We weren't that impressed with the experience, however we had a great time being silly. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the caffeine and treats...


We were all frightened by the MAN fairy.... ... ?

The reason for the following photo montage.

a visit with ole St. Nick

ANNA: I would like a DS, and a dog that can walk and talk and has a leash and a barbie with rainbow hair and a doll with long brown hair.
BROOKE (while trying to be like her big sister) : I would like a DS with a leash, a barbie that can talk and a dog with long brown hair.

Oh Hi! Oh Hi! Oh Hi!!

Anna and Dylan

Doesn't get any better than this!

Dylan movie!

Sister love. Love the swing.

They can't get enough of her.


I'm not sure what Dylan is looking at when we put her in the swing- every time she ends up like this... and lately she's been cooing and smiling at it... ?

Snowman down. ... er.. snowWOMAN!

Since there was a freak snowfall I wasn't prepared for having to decorate the snowman that chris and the girls made.. no coal, (who has coal anyway?), no carrots (we only had baby carrots, not so good for snowman nose)... So I rummaged through the tickle trunk and pulled out some "decor" I thought would cheer this snowman up -needless to say, this is no snowMAN!!!

Poor girl, never had a chance!
