Catching up to modern technology- with help and encouragement of my techno kids Mothernana is ready to blog.

We have just arrived in Calgary the first step on our trip to Billings. We will see all the family within the next week- that makes for a good week.

Best laugh of the trip so far was watching Hayden and Ethan play "zimzam". a ball game that Hayden said he had always wanted- a birthday gift for his 4th birthday. They played and played - laughing and giggling the whole time. We all laughed along with them and it was amazing how much they improved in the half hour they played. Fynlee - our second meeting and greeting is wonderful, with such a healthy and glowing face- very round cheeks and a quick and easy smile.

The rest of the gang is busy showing us they latest skills, Talia - roller blading on Nana's old blades, Caleb amazing us with his piano skills -played one of our favorites - the Beatles- "Here comes the Sun. " That was the first piece of music we heard on our new stereo system when we were in Beirut and fell in love with it. Kiara is the charming little lady and we got a chance to watch the Chipmunks together. Sean and Craig are busy landscaping the front yard - it is going to look great.

Kirstie is a glowing mom and Roshanne never is still for more than a moment "taking care of business." what a great family.
