Minter Gardens!!
So tonight we headed to Chilliwack. Benjamin, Bonnie and his 2 favorite girls with 3 letter names; Jen and Net!! (Jennifer and Lynette) We went for supper at BP's and enjoyed a super duper pizza. It was really fun. Then into the car and off too the Minter Gardens for a night of lights and pictures.
I thought I knew where it was but we decided to take the long way around and wasted some time driving. This however ended up being very fun. We love spending time with the girls and Ben really loves them as well. This is a picture of Ben and the girls. They hug and kiss and chase and play with him like crazy. He loves the attention of older girls already. YIKES!! Anyway we appreciate them and love that they love our "Sweetpea"! (Net calls him that).
Anyway, there were lots of lights, decorations, a nativity scene, the Christmas Carol in lights and the Wizard of Oz! It was cool and all of it from a train ride it was great. Ben loved the train and just sat there and enjoyed the scenery. He didn't really talk but I think he was a tad bit overwhelmed.
This trip was for Bonnie and her Christmas spirit. She spent all week baking and getting in the Christmas mood. We have no decorations and haven't really had much "Christmas" so Bonnie needed some lights and festive things to get her in the mood.(of Christmas that is!)!!
One more week and we are off to Alberta. We continue to anticipate a great time visiting friends in Coaldale and family in Airdrie. Have a great weekend. Maybe some more posts to come. We have serious family gatherings this weekend.
