We spent our long weekend in Jon's old stomping grounds-- Prince George. His mom's side of the family has a reunion every 2 years and this year his Aunt Charlotte hosted it at Vivian Lake, just outside of PG. Unfortunately, the weather was mostly rainy & cold (apart from some sun on Sunday), but it was still nice to have time at the lake and catch up with family members we haven't seen in a couple of years.
We were pretty excited to take Callie for a canoe ride...
... too bad she didn't reciprocate the feelings.
So she stayed back with Auntie Naomi instead. ;)
On Saturday, the family had a "hat contest."
The goal was to have the most creative hat.
I thought Calvin looked pretty cute in his...
Callie, busy decorating her hat...
Sara and her weekend side-kick, Liliana...
Aunt Lori...
The hostess of the mostest, Aunt Charlotte...
I'll admit, we weren't that creative.
We just looked the for the most "retired-in-Florida" style hats we could find.
Pretty spiffy, hey!? ;)
Endless hours of bubble fun...
Who knew bubbles could be so. much. fun!?
The whole gang, enjoying time around the campfire...
Picturesque lake...
More bubble adventures...
Hats for the competition.
Adult's hats...
... and the kids' hats...
Bath time fun...
The loooong ride home.
"Are we there yet?"
Callie was pretty excited to get home to her books.
For the record... all of these books were neatly stacked in her bookshelf when we put her to bed.
This was the state of her room when we checked on her an hour later... :)
So, despite some crummy weather, I'd say it was an all in all good weekend.
