Jordan & Jessica came to see us!


Jordan & Jessica came to see us for about a week during Christmas break. They arrived on Christmas night and we stayed up late talking and hanging out. While they were here we snuck Tim Horton's food in to the theatre and went and saw The Curious Case of Benjamin Button...besides being a little too long Jessica and I liked it but the guys didn't really. Jessica and I went and got massages. It was so fun and relaxing! Of course we had to get pizza and wings so they didn't go home without experiencing true authentic NY pizza & wings. We also spend a lot of time playing with Hayden and hanging out talking.

Jessica wanted to see Niagara Falls lit up at night and go to the Canada side. After we ate dinner it was late and we got disoriented and made the guys turn around about 3 times before we got to the falls. It was dark and cold and Hayden was sleeping so we decided to drive to the Canada side instead of walking. They had Christmas lights up everywhere and the falls were lit up. There was lots of traffic and not really anywhere to park so Jess and I jumped out and took some picts of the falls. Then we drove around in a HUGE square trying to find the bridge to drive back to the US. After we ended up back at square one we realized that had we gone up one street we would not have followed the "alternate route to the bridge to the U.S." and therefore would not have wasted time driving in a square. We also had quite the experience with the boarder patrol officer good thing we were able to have fun and keep laughing at ourselves and each other!



While they were here we went to Toronto. This is one of the things I have wanted to do since we lived here. We got a great deal on a nice room at the Hilton. We went and saw the CN tower and walked around town. Jess and I went shopping at the underground mall...it's 16 miles long....and the Eaton Center, it was SO much fun!

the CN tower


the night before they had to leave I said it would be awesome if it snowed a ton and they couldn't leave. Much to my surprise it snowed 8 inches! I measured!!!

Their flight wasn't until 5pm so they took off just fine



Like always we had a great time and can't wait to see them again!
