Curious George(tte)! :)








My sister, Anne Louise and her husband Dwight had just arrived from Edmonton (Canada) for a visit so they joined in the festivities! :)


Waiting for dinner....
Getting to know Auntie Anne! :) Excuse my hair, I'm due for a bang cut and Auntie Anne did them for me a few days later! :)
These are the ingenious non-fire firecrackers that they had for the kids...pieces of bubble wrap all over the floor that the kids jumped on and it REALLY sounded like fireworks...how fun and CREATIVE!!!
