Birthday Party Fun

My niece, Emily, turns 13 this week so on Sunday we had her birthday party.  It's hard to believe that I have a niece AND a nephew who are both teenagers already....maybe it's because I was still a teenager when they were born??!  It's always fun to have everyone at our house for a big meal (and a big bowl of marshmallow salad for Emily and my dad) and some fun.  So while Oma and Finn played patta-cake

                                   and read 'Good Night Vancouver'

                                 everyone else was busy playing cards

I think everyone is looking forward to July when we will all be together with Aunt Debbie, Uncle Jonathan, big cousin Charlotte and big cousin Mia in Vancouver - we really miss having them here in Ontario!
