We traveled to Victoria this past weekend to have a pre-Christmas visit with our family and friends.

The one bedroom suite that Jimmy found was pretty much a one bedroom apartment complete with dishwasher, oven/stove, full fridge and gas fireplaces. We also had a roof-top patio on our floor that was at our disposal. The weather was fairly warm and nice so we spent some time out there looking at the pretty views.

We arrived on a Friday and got settled in nicely with the kids. We prepared for our visit with Jimmy’s family the next day which was also Claire & Rhys’ actual 2nd birthday. Bob arrived at 10am and everyone else arrived at 11am. It was nice having some one on one time with Bob and the kids before everyone else arrived.

Once we all got settled-in, we had a great time! Yummy food, gifts for the kids, lots of chatting, listening to music, laughing, visits to the roof top patio. When it came time for Claire & Rhys’ nap time everyone went on a tour of the hotel and they had some fun goofing around in the gym 🙂

Thanks everyone! We had a great Christmas visit. Merry Christmas and see you in the New Year!

Nana Nic – you are always in our hearts and we miss you dearly….
