A visit from Marianne, Jordan and Ben

Last week, we had A visit from Marianne, Jordan and Ben for the week. They arrived on Sunday and left on saturday.

It was nice to have them, but rather hectic as both lair & I worked all week (T-f).

Jordan was at Hockey Camp 9am - 7pm every day.

Monday was the August long Stat which Lair had to work, but he was home by noon. We decided to take Quinn & Ben to Calloway Park. It was a fun afternoon.

Tuesday night marianne stayed in with the boys and Lair and I went to see a movie. We saw 'Salt'. It was a great Russian Spy film. We both enjoyed it. The movie let out at 9:30. We decided to stay at the theatre and go see the 10:10 showing of 'Inception'. This was a bold move as 10pm is our bedtime! LOL... But hey, when you have a free sitter at home you get the most of your free time! We LOVED it. Phenomenal movie. I really look forward to seeing it again in a few months once I digest it all!

So this movie night brought us home at 1:15am! Yikes, late night!

Wednesday night Lair was out for coffee with friends. Jordan watched Quinn. I put him to bed, then Marianne and I went for drinks at Brewsters. We had a great gab. Lair met us around 11 and we had some appetizers, and then he drove us home after midnight...

Whoa, TWO late nights in a row! Animals!

Thursday night we did nothing. Hung out. Got a good sleep.

Friday night Marianne went out with a friend. Me, Lair & Quinn went to a friends for dinner. We played 'Rockband' for the first time. It was a lot of fun. I only tried the bass guitar and drums. Next time I will try the guitar and.... singing! (Might need some drinks first).

We headed off to Medicine hat saturday morning, bidding farewell to Marianne, Jordan and Ben.

That was a busy week. This week I am looking forward to hanging out, relaxing, biking and some quiet family time.
