As soon as we arrived we met with Auntie Joyce and once we collected all of our gear (and packed it in the car(s) - Thanks again Auntie Joyce!) we headed over the visit with Great Grandma Nicholetts. The boys took to Grandma and Auntie Joyce instantly and the hugs began. Grandma is still just as cuddly as she was when I was a kid. Grandma gave both of the boys a Cabbage Patch doll which they both thought was pretty cool. Auntie Joyce gave them some coloring books and chocolates that they had to have immediately, of course. They both spent a little time with Grandma checking out the view out her window and chatting about our trip. Jesson came to the realization that he now has "3 Grandma's" which he thinks is awesome! We visited with Great Grandma every day we were there and look forward to visiting again some day soon.

Auntie Joyce went out of her way to make sure we had fun on our trip. She had us over to the appartment for supper one night to make sure we had a chance to visit with uncle Norman and Christopher too and the meal was excellent. She showed us the Sleeping Giant, took us to Mission Island to see the deer that feed there daily, took us to "camp", their beautiful cabin near Thunder Bay where we spent an afternoon visiting, and organized a dinner out with Great Grandma at Swiss Chalet which was quite a treat for her and for us. Thank You for all the trouble you went to Auntie Joyce. One afternoon Scott and I and the boys took a very quick tour of Kakabeka falls, about 30 minutes out of Thunder bay. Conor slept through it but Jesson thought it was pretty neat.
