We had the privilege of having Amy, Chris and Emilie come for a week long visit. Chris has not yet met Amara and we haven't seen Amy and Em since the summer. So it was a much needed visit.
They stayed with us the first night and then for the following two they drove up to Qualicum for a 2 nights stay. Amy is 6 months pregnant with a baby boy and so this was their last family vacation before baby is born and we were so very thankful they chose us to be their destination!

Brother and sister at Qualicum beach
We went up and had dinner with them the one night. The girls played out the whole evening and Amara was banging on the window and screaming because she wanted to be with them so bad!
Amara and Chris bonded quickly!
Cousins!
My little goof ball
One of our walks down to the beach in crofton- the girls explored forever!
Fun jumping pictures
Em loving all the sea life
The biggest rock eel they've seen
One evening we got a babysitter and had dinner with Amy and Chris at Genoa Bay. Still our very favorite restaraunt and had a great deal 2 can dine for $50, which includes an appetizer, main (a $30 steak!) and dessert. And every bite is delicious!
I took the girls on a walk down to Osborne bay...
They played for quite some time in the girls forts in the woods
Amara no longer wants to be contained so she also explores the beach... And ruins her pants at the same time! But she sure loves all the different textures I just need to keep swatting things out of her hands as she tries to eat everything.
At one point as the girls were playing I looked up and saw two fins and water blowing. I squealed! We've always dreamed of seeing orcas and there were 2 of them slowly making their way across. They are such magnificent creatures.
This picture didn't end well...her feet landed and were quickly followed by her face!

So much fun with cousins!
Three pretty princesses!
