O Canada!

We finally got to meet Ellie and Angelo in the flesh this past week during our visit up North! We had a fabulous time. We saw the Toddlebot in action, we got to cuddle with the Tangelo, we ate wonderous concoctions (PD's Markham Roll rocks!) We saw tiger cubs at the zoo, and Nora got to expound to a new audience about the wonders of Karldog. Most of all we stayed up much too late and talked. Poor Tree got even less sleep than normal! Here are some pictures from the trip:
Here's Nora trying to convince Ellie that Tigger is quite like Karl. Ellie is comforting her over her obvious delusion.

Angelo does his koala bear imitation at the zoo.

Nora wonders if she can make it through yet ANOTHER soccer game, and tries to brush Jason's hair to amuse herself.


We met the lovely Serena and she taught me how to make tortillas! They were super yummy.


Despite some troubles (barfing baby in carseat), we had a beautiful drive back to Detroit that included a short stop in a dandelion patch.


As I go through the photos, I realize that I did not get any of everyone all together or even any of just Tree, PD, Ellie and Angelo all and I wish I had. Nor is there any photo of Pepe, although we did catch glimpse of her. Something to make sure of for the next time. Now we are home again and back to the daily grind - thank you Tree and PD for a wonderful visit!
