Orange Corners

The eastern visit had Akis and I running for the train ~ quite literally. Jodi was great and took us to the train station. We had about 5 minutes to spare when I reached the counter and asked for 2 tickets to Port Hope. He said, 'sure, and it leaves from platform 2 in 4 minutes.' Akis thought I was joking as I started to run, but as we lept onto the train, just as it was pulling off, we were glad to make it.

Krista and Reed picked us up at the train station in Port Hope, where Akis met his other nephew. Dad also joined the group, driving up and allowing us to have our Thanksgiving a bit earlier than it is normally.

The 4 days were pretty relaxed, hanging with Chloe, taking Reed for some walks and just being able to spend some time with Akis. With our crazy schedules, that is the one thing we hadn't seemed to really be doing much of. So it was great to be able to hang out with my hubby again.

And playing with Grandpa Jim.



Craig had some exciting moments as his birthday gift was a new shiny laptop. He was just excited when he got to take it out of the box!
