Reunitted

I am on day 4 of my time with Graham, Kristy and Norah! It has been soooooo good to spend time with them. Oh how I had missed them! Our days have been full of good things - everything from time at the park, Starbucks, movie/puzzle nights, shopping trips into Coquitlam, excursions to the Zoo to just chilling out. It has been 4 days of pure perfection.


for the record, Kristy and I completed this 1000 piece puzzle in one evening.

One evening, Kristy and I headed into Coquitlam to do some shopping at the mall and at the Ikea. I had missed shopping with this lady!

On the way home, we stopped off at McDonalds for a twist cone. We were disappointed to learn that in BC, McDonalds no longer sells twist or chocolate ice cream. Only vanilla. Who ever heard of such ridiculousness???? Vanilla was still good too though.

It's incredible how much Norah has grown up since I last saw her in June. Time truly flies WAY too quickly. It's been too bad that Graham has had to do a lot of working this week, but hopefully he will be able to join in on our fun more this weekend.

Today we went to the Greater Vancouver Zoo. We got a little rained on, but it made for very few people there, which was kind of nice. The zoo was awesome - the variety of animals was awesome. Let's just say that this zoo is significantly better than the Winnipeg Zoo.


Norah had a great time at the zoo. She walked pretty much the whole time, which I thought was pretty impressive. Norah has been reminding us a number of times of which animals were our favorites. Kara likes the giraffes. Mommy likes the grizzly bear and the zebras. Norah likes the rhino and the racoons (go figure). Baby Sister likes the lions.




I have a few more days left with this Friesen household - days that will be full of coffee drinking, park dates and evening walks. Delightful!!!!
