November 2010 - Everything Party (And the Third Cake!)

After Em and Megs arrived, we hosted a do so that everyone could meet everyone else, and to celebrate a few birthdays with extended family.

Claire and Kevin came along.

I cheated on the cake and went for alternating chocolate and vanilla cupcakes instead.

November 2010 - Emma and Megan's visit

Last Canadian winter we had the Great Aussie Relocation, with most of my family plus Kate F visiting for a while. Here are a random selection of holiday snippy snaps! Megs and Em arrived early in November. They both stayed a few days with us before spending a week in New York. After, they both returned to O'ville for a few days then Em flew back to Sydney while Megan settled into what would be her new life for a few months. Here we are at the visitor's centre at Niagara Falls.

Of course, no visit to the falls would be complete without stopping in at Niagara-On-The-Lake, here's Peter and the girls after stocking up at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Shop.

In anticipation....

The three of us posing streetside - it was a wet and windy day for sure.

Em was fascinated by the squirrles.

Back in O'ville, Em and I took a walk around the lake, and she picked out a new home for herself!

Megs, Em and I also did the tourist trail through Toronto. Here we are heading up to Castle Loma - also a popular 'home'!
