Our Weekend with Darrylie

Very nice.

We had the best weekend in Halifax!!!! Thanks to everyone for coming to visit or having us over. We really enjoyed ourselves.

The kids and I spent Wednesday night with Darryl's parents in Antigonish. Then headed off to Halifax on Thursday to pick Darryl up. It was VERY exciting to see him arrive at the airport! We sure missed him! We spent the rest of Canada Day in the city. Enjoyed some Maritime seafood and fresh air. We stayed at the Delta and I still love seeing the guys in their kilts!

Wheee-hooo!

We haven't been in Halifax much since we left in 2002 but I still love it there.

And the "Split Crow" is still rockin'!! Good times were had at the Crow. :)

The waterfront had lots going on. It was nice to just stroll along the water and do some shopping.

We also went to the Public Gardens...

I see that Canada also has beautiful flowers in the trees! They just don't bloom more than once a year - unlike in Brissie!!

Shamus is still enjoying the camera...

Of course Darryl arrived with gifts for the kiddies. Shamus got IronMan goodies and Breagha got a new princess dress. She enjoyed strolling through Halifax in her new dress. Very cute.

We also enjoyed some time with Darcy, Erin, and Ayla. And we had Pizza Delight for dinner! Yummmmmmy! The best garlic fingers.

Ayla also enjoyed her dinner...

We spent Saturday and Sunday at Bill and Melissa's and had a wonderful time!!! The kids loved the pool and we loved the pool, food, drinks, and company! Thanks so much guys for always putting up with us. We appreciate it! :)

Our wonderful hosts...

Shamus not only loved the pool but also Bill's huge "Star Wars" collection.

And Breagha LOVVVVVED this chair. She was quite comfortable in it!

Some of my old HRG coworkers came out to visit on Saturday. I'm sure the heated pool was a bonus! Thanks guys. It was great to see everyone!

A very relaxing day.

Bill also loved this chair.

Sunday was Breagha's birthday!!!!

She is finally 4 years old!

She didn't think it would ever arrive. The countdown has been on since May!!

Breagha and Megan got dressed up for the occasion. Very beautiful!

Melissa picked up a pinata for the kids to whack around. Quite entertaining!!

They finally got the goodies to fall out!

A birthday BBQ by the pool.

And of course the cake!

Gifts and cuddles with Dad.

Breagha was quite pleased with her "pool party birthday". She said it was the best birthday ever!! So, we were glad she had a wonderful day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEETIE!

We were sad to say goodbye to Darryl on Sunday night. It was tough but we're so glad we were able to enjoy the long weekend with him.

The kids and I are back home but we're hoping to make a trip to Antigonish this week to enjoy some of the Highland Games. Stay Tuned.
