Gotcha Day Party!
























We had our 2nd anniversary Gotcha Day party on Saturday. For those of you that don't follow regularly, this is the anniversary of the day we "got" Hailey or she "got" us. This is kinda like the equivalent of a birthday for a bunch of kids that dont really know their actual birthday. And, what is a birthday really except the start of your relationship with your family. It just so happens that this special group of kids share the same birthday and mostly come from the same part of the world, a world away. Enough of that though. We had a great time as usual (after we drove to St. Catherines by accident, ooops). Special thanks to the Carmody's for hosting and cleaning up afterwards for the second year running (but they didnt get to see lovely Grimsby- wherever that is?). And, thanks to all of our group for making this event a priority in your busy lives and putting our little ones first. Most of the kids were there. We sure missed seeing Zoe, Olivia, Justin, Jaiden, Sarah and Katie. We celebrated Maya's birthday with singing and a cake. There were crafts, snacks, lots of bouncy balls, and plenty of fun to be had. At the last minute i thought to pack the bouncy castle and the kids really enjoyed the bouncing. We really had a great time and was so nice to catch up with everyone. Boy have the kids grown! See you all soon!
Love Jason, Alex and Hailey. xo.

They are all getting soooo big. Can't wait until we can be there again.

Cool idea to put them all on the stairs again. That will be neat over the years.

Loves you all,
Deb, Kirk & Olivia
