We enjoyed having family in the city to take in the Grey Cup festivities, unfortunately it was cold. We did not take in too many events but still enjoyed the company and Grey Cup atmosphere.
Saturday was Chris birthday and we brave the -35 degrees to see the parade. It was a great parade but cold. Abigail stayed home with Grandma. Will and Madelyn made it almost to the end of the parade. Poor Maddy was a cold and promptly had a warm bath when we got home. Everything filled up early in terms of pavilions for the grey cup, most of the crew did hit up the Edmonton Eskimo pavilion Saturday afternoon. Then we had a birthday supper for Chris and Auntie here.
Sunday was Auntie Jen's birthday. I will not say how old she turned but we gave her 30 gifts to celebrate, complete with showercap, rollers, bright red lipstick, a Northgate Mall walking club membership etc.
Of course we finished the weekend off watching the Riders win the Grey Cup with Auntie (others were at the game). Will was into watching the game and Chris had both kids chanting HENRY! It was a lot of fun and yes they stayed up to see the Riders get the Grey Cup!
