Lizzy and I made it to Canada! Finally. We flew up last Tuesday and stayed with my sister for a week. It was so much fun! I got to meet Abigail for the first time. She is just as smiley as Cora says she is. She is so cute! Lizzy loved playing with her cousins. The weather was AWESOME!!!! It was so cold! For example, on Sunday it was -41*F! Can you believe it? It was so snowy and windy. I really did love it. I wish we'd get some more snow down here. I can live without the seriously below freezing temps though.

Mom and dad came up for the weekend to see Abigail get blesses. That was great fun! Cora and I did some crafting and painting. We painted 2 pictures for the girls room. They turned out great! And mom and I stitched up some quilts for the girls beds, also, very cute. We cooked, ate Canadian candy, played, visited and watched the new Anne of Green Gables. Eh, not that great.

On the way home, Lizzy and I were waiting in the Calgary airport for our flight (which was quite delayed) and Lizzy met a boy. She fell in love with him! And he feel in love with her! It was so sweet! She kept hugging him and sharing her fruit snacks with him. It was so cute.
The "boy" Lizzy fell in love with :)
It was a great trip and I can't wait to go back up there and visit.

okay that pic of Lizzy at the airport with her new boy is adorable. She's such a little sweetheart. Somehow we need to get together real soon! Oh and I finished Breaking Dawn. I actually really liked it. I could have down without the whole honeymoon story - gag, gag, gag but other than that I thought she tied everything together real nice. I thought of you the whole time I read it. :) Thanks for sharing pics from Canada. Wish we could have been there as well.
