Our Holidays

We are back from our wonderful vacation that turned into a road trip. We had a great time, it's just that we didn't realize how much driving we would be doing. It all started with Kaylee and I spending all day Friday getting ready to go. There was so much to do and not enough time in a day to get it all done. Plus having to do everything by myself because Geoff was working was not fun either. A 16 pound baby in one arm and bags in the other left me exhausted by the time we made it out to the in-laws at 1030pm Friday night.

Saturday morning comes way too early for an 8 hour drive with three little girls. Kaylee was an angel though. No complaining, no whining, just napping and good times. We stop at the usual places on the way, bathrooms, rest areas, gas stations, etc. Oh and we did eat at the Terry Fox stop and grabbed some fresh spring water too which aided in visiting more toilets on the drive there!!

We made it to Kamloops and Kaylee got to meet her great grandparents on the Salter side for the first time!! Sunday we had to take Kaylee to the walk in clinic to make sure that she was doing okay. She managed to get a really bad cough and runny nose and I was loading her up with cough syrup. Turns out she'll live. We just need to let the virus take it's course and stop with the syrup.

We also stopped at the Maczuga's in Kamloops to visit with Uncle Ken and Aunt Emily, Kendra, Randy and Cora. It was really nice to see them all again and visit. Unfortunately Kendra had not had her baby yet so we made plans to see them on Saturday before we head home.



Sunday night we left for the Shuswap's and to stay in a cabin/house (Geoff's uncle let us stay at his cabin while they were not there) for two days. It was so much fun. We got the best room, thanks to my bladder, queen size bed, ceiling fan, private entrance to the bathroom, patio entrance to the deck, it was wonderful. Kaylee had a sleeping bag on the floor to sleep on but she's happy with most anything these days!

Monday we spent the whole day out on the lake and the beach. We went on the tube with Kaylee, I will add a picture of that once I get it. Then we went cliff diving. I jumped from the second lowest point of jumping.
