What a trip!.....

So, let me just say first.... I have the best sister on the planet. For my Christmas present my pal got me tickets to see James Blunt in Vancouver. Elle and I got to go for a pre christmas holiday for 5 days. We had a great time surprising everyone that didn't know we were coming. Our cover was almost blown though. Shannon had arranged for me to watch Emma on the day that we arrived while she was at work. The plan was for my brother in law to drop Emma off at my Mom and Dad's house (after we arrived and surprised them) so he could go catch a ferry. It just so happened that as Shannon and I were making the short 5 minute drive from the airport to my parents house, my brother in law Rob and my Dad had been talking on the phone. Apparently, I was going to be looking after Emma at my parents house that day, or this is what Rob let my Dad know. My dad was a little bit confused since I live in a different province. He was wondering how that was going to work. Rob thinking I had already arrived at the house and realizing he may have blown the surprise told my dad he wasn't sure where he was supposed to drop Emma off. My Dad rubbed it off on the account that Rob can be a bit of a scatterbrain sometimes! Shannon, Elle and I got to the house just before my Dad had a chance to put two and two together. Surprises are my favorite thing!
Shannon had planned a family dinner that night so Elle could play with her little cousins and that they did. Elle also had her very first ferry ride over to Vancouver which she loved. She is very interested in her surroundings and just stares and squeals in delight at new things. One of the highlights of our trip of course was James. The concert was FABULOUS I got lots of Video footage and us girls had a great night out.
Here's a taste for you.
