Sleepover madness

The Goelst family arrived safely last Wednesday. They were already at the airport by the time we got there as I (Diabra) actually drove (way to slowly, ie the lateness) to go get them. Our boys had barely slept the previous two nights, as excitement overwhelmed sleepiness. Friendships were picked up where they were left off, I must say, as usual! While we don't see a load of each other we remain close, and it is a delight to see the kids friendships grow too. Nyah and Isabelle have grown so much. Shyness was quickly overcome by a shared love of tutus and Wiggles. The men and boys headed up to Big White for the last Friday night ski session for the season. It was a success, with no injuries. We also managed to get tickets for the ice hockey playoffs. The Rockets won, so one more game and they are in the final. Andrew, Jacqueline, Rosemary and Isabelle have headed off to Banff for a couple of nights, and have managed to hit beautiful weather for it. The boys are enjoying spring break, as neighbouring kids can come and play as well. A rousing game of chases continued until 7pm tonight, and it was warm (a relative term) enough for it to be played outside. Yah! As for the title of this post, lets just say that the children have been sleeping "lightly" to say the least!
