Long weekend in Vancouver





Hi everyone!

We were lucky enough to spend Rememberance Day long weekend in Vancouver visiting with family and friends.

On Friday night we had dinner with RaeAnn, Noel, Aeirelle, Kieran, Susan, Chris, Erica, Bridgitte, Uncle Walder, Aunt Nancy, Carmen and Andy at RaeAnn and Noel's house in Port Moody. RaeAnn made fantastic pizza and apple crisp. We are so lucky to have such great family so close to us.

On Saturday and Sunday we had fun visiting with friends. We had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with Tim, Jasmine and their son Ryder. He is one handsome boy and it is exciting to think Liam will be like him soon enough. Carmen invited some friends over on Saturday night for some drinks and in typical Liam style he loved being held, especially by Jay, and spent the evening wide eyed.

On Sunday night our friend Stacy arranged for us to stay a night at the Pan Pacific Hotel. Wow, we had a beautiful room with a huge city view and it felt like we were on a mini vacation. Liam had a great time staring at the city lights from his crib. That evening we had a great dinner at The Keg with our friends from Edmonton, Jason and Nicole. It was nice to have a wonderful dinner and be pampered for a weekend.

We want to thank Carmen for letting us spend the weekend at her apartment and Stacey for arranging the room at the hotel. We had a wonderful weekend that definitely helped us relax and reconnect with our friends and family.

Hey guys,

Cousin Melissa in Beijing here. For some fortuitous grace of chance, the Chinese gov't has unblocked a few web sites, including this one (if only for today). So I've been able to go through your pics and blog, and OOOHHH and AHHH over Liam's Halloween costume. Sounds like you guys are doing a great job, and I'm really happy that I had a chance to see what you guys are up to.

With lots of love to all three of you,

Cousin Melissa
