Irie Irie MON!

We just got back from a wonderful week in Jamaica! No worries, no problem mon. It was our first family vacation, and it was great to spend it with Di and Saads' family!

We just relaxed and ate and ate! We all got hooked on that jerk chicken hut conveniently located on the beach. It was great to spend some time with my gal pals too! The men seemed to have bonded quite nicely as well (I'm surprised they didn't exchange phone numbers at the end of the week). hehe

Great job planning this trip ladies! Looking forward to the next one!! :)

Yah mon... Jamaica mon!

We finally booked our vacation to Negril, Jamaica! I'm a bit excited and nervous at the same time.

This will be Jacen's first plane ride, so I'm hoping he'll be ok. What's even more exciting is that he'll have his playmates Marley and Samara with him on this trip! Yay!

It ended up just working out that we were all looking to go on a trip at the same time, and decided to all go together! Should be fun!! :)

Easter weekend...

Easter weekend ended up being busy!

Saturday we went to IKEA to get a set of table and chairs for Jacen. We put him down a slide that they had displayed there, and it was so funny - he had no reaction. Ron just pushed him down the thing, and I think he was in shock by the time he got down... he just laid there and didn't move! I then dropped them off at home because I had to meet my entire family (plus my aunt, uncle and cousins) to celebrate my parents' anniversary! We ended up taking them to a buffet dinner at the Great Blue Heron Casino. The prime rib was delicious, but the seafood which I was excited about, was a bit disappointing. There were 16 of us that came out, which was the biggest table they had at the restaurant that night.... if any of you have been to any of my family gatherings, we're not the quietest of the bunch.

Sunday we headed to Ron's sisters place for Easter. Jacen received some chocolates (which we will enjoy), bunny ears and some tattoos in an Easter egg. He was a big hit!

Monday, Jacen and I headed out to Buffalo for some cross border shopping with my sister and two of her kids. We've done this a few times now, so we have our routine (and our food choices) pretty down packed. And that was our weekend! Hope you all had a nice Easter with your families!!

Yum Yum Dim Sum!

After a late night (I didn't sleep until 3am), we got up early to meet Sebby and family for a dim sum breakfast! I always enjoy dim sum... small portions, and lots of variety...YUM!

We got all caught up, and we congratulated them on their second baby to arrive in August!! I think it's going to be a girl this time... I'll bet all my pennies on it!! hehe
