Tons of Travel

As usual I haven't updated lately, ooops! We have been really busy with lots of travel in the last month or so. On March 1, Peyton and I went to St. John's to visit my family for two weeks. We came home for one week and then all three of us went out to BC for another two weeks visiting Ted's family, and friends.

Just Back From St. John's

We got home Saturday afternoon from our summer vacation in St. John's Newfoundland (where my parents and most of my family live). It was a great visit, and unlike most trips, I can't really say that I'm happy to be home now. I think that's because St. John's feels like home to me too (maybe even moreso than Ottawa...)

BC Trip

Although we got back 1.5 weeks ago now I'm just getting around to writing about it... we did another whirlwind tour of BC to see family and friends and especially to be there for our new little niece's birth - Austin now has a baby sister named Grace Sophia! I don't have much time to write but I did put up some pictures of our trip in the gallery!

Back from BC

We have just returned from another whirlwind trip to BC. It was about the latest time in my pregnancy that I would be able to fly, plus we definitely will not make it to the annual Tofino trip in August, so we thought we'd better try to fit in a visit now.

Disneyland Vacation

We just got home from 5 days at Disneyland with Jeff, Tanya, and Austin (Ted's brother, his wife, and their 2.5-year-old). It was fun and tiring. I turned on the computer and had to clean a bunch of spam off the blog comments... Grrr. I may have to turn on junkeater like I have for my guestbook. More on Disneyland later... bedtime now.

Back from BC

I was away for the past 2 weeks in BC. While there we did our annual Tofino trip. Then my sister came to Vancouver (from Halifax) and I spent a few days visiting her and also other friends and family on the Lower Mainland. Then it was up to the interior to visit Ted's family and more friends in the Okanagan.

Just a quick 'blog entry from Norfolk VA today! I am here visiting my parents - my mother is on a business trip so I met them here. So far it's been a very fun trip. It is beautiful country here, nice tall trees, very green and lush.

Upcoming Trips & Cellphones
|
Comments (3)

We've now booked our summer trips! I am going to meet my parents at Virginia Beach in mid-July, and we are doing our annual BC/Tofino trip in early August! Fun stuff coming up! Other than that, things have been pretty quiet around here. But I thought I'd blog about our new cellphones. Ted and I both got new cellphones about 1.5/2 months ago, and I thought I'd write a little review about them.

Mardi Gras is Over

Okay, well actually TODAY is Mardi Gras so it is not really over. I think we are going to the Greenville Parade in downtown-ish Dallas. But no matter what we do tonight it will not really compare to the REAL THING this weekend in New Orleans. It was a blast! I am pretty sad it's over. :(

As emd wrote in the comments, we are very seldom in Texas these days! Tomorrow morning at 9am we are off to Mexico for 5 days of fun in the sun with Dan and Denise. We are staying close to Playa del Carmen, just south of Cancun. In other news, I have just censored out my previous blog entry...

Wedding in Kamloops

We are off this evening to Kamloops, BC, for Dan and Denise's wedding on Friday. Ted is in the wedding party and has to give a speech, glad it's not me! It's a short trip so I'm not sure if we'll have time to do much while we're there (other than the wedding). I am crossing my fingers for a trip up to the ski hill though!

Back to Reality

We are now back in Texas after having a great and very busy holiday in BC. We managed to see almost everybody we wanted to (no small feat), ate lots of good food, and went skiing AND snowboarding. It was amazing, and really reminded us of how much we miss living in Canada and especially in BC. I have to say that I am not too happy to be back at work this morning. Oh well, back to the grind.

Christmas vacation has begun! We are leaving in a few hours to fly to Vancouver to spend the holidays with Ted's many families (on the coast and in the Okanagan), and also to see our Vancouver friends. I can't wait to see the ocean and eat at some of my favorite restaurants there. So to our Dallas friends - hope your holiday is great, see you next year. And to our Vancouver friends - see you soon!!!

Trip to Houston

Over the weekend we went to Houston in the RV. I'll put up pictures someday. It was HOT there, just like going back to mid-summer, probably 95-100 F. We toured NASA, which was cool, but stuff like that always reminds me of the much more exciting jobs other electrical engineers have. Oh well. We ate lots of Vietnamese food with Thuy & Sinh, and went to Galveston where our dogs got to run on the beach and play in the ocean for the first time since we moved away from Vancouver!
