A Visit From Nanny & Papa And Gwen Turns 3!

 We had more snow just after Halloween.  The kids had a lot of fun building out first snowman of the season!
 And Cara can pull Gwen on the sled now so Daddy got a break!
 Just as the snow was stopping Nanny & Papa arrived in Calgary.
Gwen fed Papa a snack while Cara was at kindergarten!
 Nanny brought a hidden picture book for Cara and everyone loved it.
 Some pictures were hard to find so Papa had to help too!
 Tuesday was a bit warmer so we stuck with our plan of going to the zoo.
 Most of the zoo is still closed but Cara's favourite part (the Dinosaur Park) is open.
Cara had fun pretending to be each species - here she is the T Rex behind her.
 The Penguin exhibit was practically empty and we walked in as the keeper was feeding the penguins!
Very active and noisy penguins that day.
 Penguin.
 The other section open is the Canadian Wild animals.
We got a close look at a couple of Grey Owls.
 Hoot.
 And a Snow Owl
 The reindeer were happy with the snow.
 Family shot with the penguin statue!
A fun walk around the zoo and we had a fun visit with Nanny & Papa too.
Miss you guys!
 Saturday was Gwen's Birthday!
She started off with a candle in her toast!
 She was a very happy Birthday Girl.
Cara was a good big sister and helped Gwen with the present opening.
 Gwen had so much fun and she loves all her new toys!
 After Gwen's choice supper (pizza) it was cake time!
 She got a candle out on her own!
Pretty sure she spit it out with a raspberry!
Now our little baby is 3!  Growing up so fast!
