Easter Weekend on Vancouver Island

We started off the weekend spending Friday with our cousins, John and Andrea in Victoria. We had a great visit and polished off some wine together. Yvonne got to pick out a present and she picked the Mermaid Barbie called Shelley. She's wanted her for a long time, but I'm a meanie and wouldn't let her get a new Barbie unless she got rid of an old one. We'll work on that part later.

Next, we spent the weekend with Mom and Dad in Chemainus. We finally got to meet our new nephew, Christopher. He was a cutie and is extremely well behaved all the time. You hardly notice he's there. We figure he's just spoiling Tina now in return for hell on wheels later. Yvonne and Marina got to spend Sunday together and were busy playing so hard they really didn't eat much of their candy. Mom did a great treasure hunt for them and the girls got a bunch of neat gifts and a few items of candy. Some of the items were really tough to find, but we figured it all out.

It was so great to see everyone again.
