I Can't Believe It! We're Here!

We actually did it! We drove to Winnipeg today! I know its not really a serious feat or anything, but we haven’t taken rowan much further away than an hour or two, so we weren’t sure how the trip would go. Especially so soon after the lake trip! Despite the few expected challenges along the way, we arrived in the driveway of loving family with a van full of smiling children! Granted, the smiling children all REEKED of poop, but there was no shyness or apprehension whatsoever.

After a good hearty playtime, we put the conked out. I can’t be completely sure, but I would be surprised if they’ve moved since then. They were SO done, but so excited to be here 🙂 It bodes well for tomorrow.

Ro was overtired, and therefore, didn’t eat too much before falling asleep. So we put him down for bed too, and had an unbelievably perfect meal of rice with sweet and sour sausage for supper. We even brought it outside and ate around the fire. There is an enormous full moon in the sky tonight, it was still and beautiful, and just the perfect night for it.

After getting back inside, Ro is up for more milk, and the rest of us as ready to hit the sack. So ready!! I’m not sure what tomorrow holds yet, but today has proved to be a great day on the road, with a fabulous reception at our destination.

This trip was a great idea! Thanks for the invite, Caity!!!
