Family Day

Canada has an official holiday for Family Day.  Most businesses close for the holiday to allow the employees time with their family.  Imperial, of course, was not one of those companies.  We did have a great day though.  The local mall held a Family Day event that kicked off with a My Little Pony Equestria Girls Live show.  Brenna was so excited and loved dancing and singing with the show.  It was a perfect fun event for her.  Next we wandered through the mall taking part in the many YMCA events; super slides, an indoor swim meet on rolling body boards, face painting, life sized jenga, and balance beams.  I've been very pleased with our mall.  Since Sarnia is such a small community, the Lambton Mall seems to be hub of happenings for the area.  So far, we celebrated Halloween, Family Day, and some of Spring Break there.

Jacob met us for lunch that day and he was able to get home alittle early so we could do some sledding.  Brenna loves sledding and built her own sled hill in the backyard following all the snow from Winter Storm Linus.  But, nothing compares to the big sled hills and Brenna was excited to show her dad just how to do it.


It always falls back to the fact that Brenna loves winter here!  It's turned out to be a blessing, because there have definitely been moments where my own emotions towards our very long and cold first Canadian winter would have been much less happy if it hadn't been for her excitement.  It's hard to dislike something that she enjoys so much.
