This past weekend was a long 4 day weekend. So we headed up to Collingwood to stay in the house that is available to us through Matt's company. We went up with the Berkman and Dunhan families. We had the Dunham boys for a couple nights so Kris and Zach could celebrate their anniversary in Toronto.
Friday night Kaitlyn, Grace, Brooke and I along with another friend who's family was there, Kimberly, went to see "The Last Song" while Jim and Matt held down the fort with all the boys.
Saturday was Matt's Bday and I sent the guys off to play 18 holes of golf for Matt's Bday. Brooke and I took the kids over to "The Plunge" for a fun few hours of swimming. It's a great place right in the heart of the Blue Mountain village. The weather was amazing and we all wore ourselves out!
That night Kris and Zach showed up and we all ate a wonderful dinner that the guys made then the adults went out for drinks in the village to celebrate Matt making it to another year. (This is how Matt likes to put it.) I had a special cake made for Matt which turned out amazing!!
Sunday being Easter we put on a great egg hunt and fabulous ham dinner that everyone pitched in to make. It was a very relaxing day of taking walks, sitting in the sun reading and taking naps. We ended the night playing a card game I remember playing as kid at our lake cabin. Kris and Zach call it Pirates rummy ( I think that was it ) but we called it Shanghai ( I don't think I spelled it right ). It was such a blast. After all the adults watch "The Blind Side" it was so good to see it again. So much I missed the first time I watched it.
Today is our last day on our long weekend. It's been a relaxing day of laundry and getting ready for hit the ground running with a busy short week ahead of us.
I am so thankful for such a wonderful friends here in Canada to spend these holidays with. It truly was a great weekend one we will remember for a long time!
