What a great weekend we had with Auntie Meredith and, as Isabelle enjoys calling him, Auntie Dave. It was so fun to have them here not only for a visit, but also to share in Oliver's big celebration. We're happy Mer had a chance to reconnect with and introduce Dave to her Ottawa pals, plus bring back some memories of her formative years in the city, including a reacquaintance with the Rideau Canal. She and Dave got to test out both the Beaver Tail hut and some long blades too. They were both such a super help with Oliver's big day, and both he and Isabelle adored having them around. Isabelle went to bed the night they were arriving, then woke up in the middle of the night half asleep, asking if Auntie Mer was here! Oliver loved practicing "walking" with Mer, and it worked! He took a few steps on his own just minutes before they left! Yahoo! We enjoyed hosting them and hope they had a great time, at least enough so that we will see them again soon!

Aww thanks! It was such a good time and and I can't wait to come back. Maybe next time we can do some kayaking instead of skating!
hahahha... I really should be working, but this is great!
Good memories, and more to come!
So I guess Dave is going to go in training for the 2014 Olympic Games now!!! Nice style both of you.
