Happy Birthday to Me

Yup 10 years old. Now I finally have an excuse for being grumpy all the time!

Ready to party.

Enough already lemme at her!

 Me and my sisters.

In other news, you know who else is getting older? Belly! Out with the crib, in with the bed.

 Adjustments like this are a piece of cake.

The run of amazing weather shows no signs of stopping. We had an amazing day on Saturday picking out the family Christmas tree. And yes, Madeleine apparently sawed the whole thing down by herself.

 She's a beauty.

 The finished product, pre-disasterous midnight collapse.

As I say, the weather has been amazing. A bit cold recently, but that is way better than the usual grey and rainy the we usually get in BC.

 M1 tries out her new skates.

Sunday Stroll

We have had just the most unbelievable November here in the Lower Mainland. The streak continued on the first day of December, perfect for a walk.

 And the girls were happy to oblige.

 What a cute pair!

 M1 with some of her friends.

Madeleine's Christmas pageant rehearsal doesn't exactly go according to plan.

Sunday Best

Here are a series of six photos from yesterday. M1 in Daddy's coat, M2 is in Mama's. 

Halloween was today!!

...Or at least the dress rehearsal

 Alice in Wonderland.

 Glinda in Wonderland

 Love the trees!!

 The whole family in costume.

 M1 with Nana.

 Mirabelle and her hero firefighter (Sam)

 Mirabelle and Cousin Wonder Woman

 This picture is amazing.

 Indiana Jones and Superman.

Great Wolfing it Once Again.

Well there really is not much in this world that is better than a night at the Great Wolf Lodge... except two nights at the Great Wolf Lodge!

Belly loved the show with the creepy animatronics.

Anybody for ice cream?

Why yes, I do have cuteness flavour available.

Madeleine  and Mirabelle both got a real kick out the MagiQuest game.

M1 shows em' how a pose is supposed to be done.

No one wears wolf ears better.

Both girls were on their very best behaviour. Whew.

Not sure if it beats real camping, but it's pretty close

Also a big hit with M&M was the arcade, where you have the opportunity to spend $60 to win a $5 stuffed animal, but ohh the memories.

Of course, the highlight of the whole thing is the water park. Thankfully Mirabelle's terror of the bucket has been reduced to intense fear.

Possible sneak preview...? What will Madeleine be for Halloween?!?!?

Editor's Note: And yes Mama was on this trip, but I guess she wasn't in any pictures!!!
