lotts in canada!

 these people came for a visit in january, and it was pretty awesome :)

cara and i always talked about hooking up again after statia, but you just never know where life is going to take you next! thankfully, they made the long road trip up for a visit to the great white north :)

we couldn't go without visiting waterton of course, and the coopers joined us with a van full of cute kids and snowshoes for a fun day in the snow!

we stopped at the temple.....

and cara did her typical jumping pose (she really doesn't get as high as it looks as i learned from seeing it action! lol)

then we headed up to cameron lake and took in the sights on the drive up :)

it was soooo beautiful, and we had a blast!

 

so blessed to live so close to such a beautiful place!

we found a camp kitchen to roast some hot dogs after, and here's eric picking off the burnt part of his while cara showed us all the art of roasting starbursts!

different background than the good old days of statia but still the best of friends and the best of times!

 

sadly, our boys were super sick while the lott's were here, and even more sadly, they got it too! we had a good couple of days of fun in the sun, but then we just hung around and vegged while watching movies and eating popcorn :) not much has changed!

 

oh and my mom taught eric and cara the art of making chocolates too :)

love our lotts eleventy four and sooooo thankful for such a fun visit and for the best of friends :) can't wait to do it again soon!!!

a little walk down memory lane while we're at it.......

 

maybe we should meet up in statia for our reunion next time!
