Mary "Finally" Arrived

Giving Karen a hug
and then Betty

and then Francine while Caden cried because some stranger was hugging his mom



Jayda saying Welcome to Canada


Summer escaping to her mom because she really didn't know Aunt Mary!
We arrived at the airport on time, but had to park about a mile away. Mary arrived somewhat early, but being the smarties that we are, we, that is Angela and I, both left our cameras in the car. We were so happy that Mary arrived safely. Left the airport and had lunch together in Devon and arrived home at around 4:30. Karen and Francine had prepared a wonderful supper of Lasagne and Chicken Broccoli Rice which we all shared together. After cleaning up and having a glass of Wally's lovely homemade wine, we took Mary home so she could try to go to bed for a sleep, since she didn't sleep at all during the whole flight. We pray that she can sleep for a long time!

Mary: Glad you arrived safe and sound. Hope that you catch up on your sleep as well. The kids seems to be fine. Vince slept fine the first night and the girls and Nikki were happy at school today. (Haven't heard from Eric yet!!!) You relax and have a good time. Say Hello to all and pass on our love. Take care.
