Some More Friendly Visitors


We were extremely excited to welcome visitors two and three this past weekend. Mary and Janis, former neighbours and good friends from Ottawa, came for a visit without the kids and husbands. We managed to consume some alcohol, do some touring, giggle, consume some alcohol, laugh hysterically and did I mention consume some alcohol? Perhaps we're all joining detox after the visit but we did have a lot of fun...at least I did! Janis is native to Nova Scotia but Mary has never been out this way before. We managed to get her out to Peggy's Cove and had a quick tour of the waterfront and Citadel Hill. Mary was so impressed that she is planning a trip back here this summer with the family. It was really great seeing some familiar faces and this summer is shaping out to be quite busy for the Forgie Hotel. Reservation dates are dwindling quickly so book now to avoid disappointment! The kids loved having the moms here and Grant sat at the airport after they left saying, "I'm gonna miss them Mommy!" Photo: Janis, Ashley and Mary at Peggy's Cove. (Click on photos to enlarge)

A Little Snow Fun!


While snow has been quite sparse this winter, Ashley and Grant were quick to call their friends over for some tobogganing and snow fort building in the front yard last week when some more of the white stuff finally arrived. Brooke and Lane are also brother and sister and very close in age to Ashley and Grant. They have a lot of fun together and play extremely well...touch wood! Judging from the Lane's hat -- they're keepers! Go Leafs Go!
