Highlights of Spring Break (and the one downer)

-Seeing and cuddling Ollie. Especially when he is "fresh awake".
-Scott's profession of faith.
-The BBQ at Margaret's place afterwards.
-Lunch on the patio at some cafe in Abbotford with Scott and Margaret.
-Walking around Mill Lake.
-Seeing snow covered mountains, Mount Baker, and so many daffodils.
-Taking pictures at Margaret's place and interacting with a hummingbird.
-Trying to take Ollie for a walk and realizing he HATES strolling.
-Seeing how excited Hank and Ryan were to golf together.
-Going to White Rock for fish and chips.
-Being able to babysit Ollie so Ryan and Steph could have a date.
-Just hanging out with our kids. We have a good time together.

-The only negative part of the trip was on the way home. We were sitting in a row with a mom and a 15 month little girl who was really cute.We bonded when I shared some stickers with her. Across the aisle were the Dad and a boy who was 5 and another girl who was 3. The kids were great - watched TV, colored, fell asleep. But the parent's squabbled the entire three hours! I wanted to send them away and take care of the cute little kids.
Then the dad sat by me and trashed Winnipeg and gloated over how beautiful Vancouver was. He tried to make a come back when he realized I was from Winnipeg. But too late.

We are happy to be home to our quiet street (even if there are no mountains or flowers yet) and are a bit homesick for our kids on the coast.
