FUN IN SARNIA

Hi Maggie,

It was so much fun having you visit us in Sarnia for Thanksgiving. It was SO HOT! We had a good time at the beach and it was nice to cool down.

We are looking forward seeing you next week-end for the Halloween party.

Love, Nai Nai

MY TRIP TO VANCOUVER

Hi Maggie,

I had a good time in Vancouver and had a lot of fun at Ken & Jen's wedding. Adam was the ring bearer and Kathryn was the flower girl. They did a good job and looked really cute. Adam stole the show at the reception with his dancing - he is really good.

I had a good visit with Uncle Allan & Aunt Donna and we did a lot. It was so nice to see them.

Hope you had a good time at the CNE. I am looking forward to seeing you soon,

Love, Nai Nai

BACK FROM MY KAYAK TRIP

Hi Maggie,

I just got back from my three day kayak trip with my friend Aneita. We had a great time. The pictures show our little tent and me relaxing and cooking the dinner.

I hope you had fun on your camping trip.

Tomorrow I am going to Winnipeg and then on Thursday I fly to Vancouver to go your cousin Ken's wedding. I will try to send some pictures. Adam & Kathryn are also going to be there.

Miss you and will talk to you soon,

Love, Nai Nai

ANOTHER DAY ON THE LAKE

Hi Maggie,

We had another great day on the lake with Aneita & Bob. Granddad & Bob went fishing and got some fish. Aneita & I did a lot of kayaking.

Next week Aneita & I are going on a kayak/camping trip. We will sleep in a tent and do lots of kayaking and swimming. I will post some pictures when I get back.

I saw your comment and I am glad that you like the pictures.

Will talk to you soon,

Love, Nai Nai

A HOT SUMMER DAY

Hi Maggie,

It is very hot in Sioux Narrows. Yesterday it got to 35C in the shade. We had a very nice trip in the boat with our friends the Gates and Aneita & I went kayaking. We then had a picnic supper on an island. We did lots of swimming to cool down.

Hope you had a good day and were not too hot.

Love, Nai Nai

WE HAD A PARTY!

Hi Maggie,


We had a Chinese New Years Party in Sioux Narrows. It was a lot of fun with good food. We don't see our Sioux Narrows friends in the winter to get together for Chinese New Year so we did it now.


It sounds like you had a lot of fun at the Dim Sum Festival - more good food. You will have to send me a picture of you with the Lion Dancers.

Tomorrow we are going out in the boat with our friends, Aneita & Bob. Aneita & I are going to go kayaking. I will post pictures soon of us in the boat.

Love you and miss you, Nai Nai

DEER AND A BEAR, OH MY!

Hi Maggie,

We have been busy in Sioux Narrows working in the garden.

There have been a lot of deer and one broke through the deer fence into the garden so we had to repair the fence today. The picture of the young buck I took today - he was right behind the cottage and was not afraid of me at all.

The other day I was in the hot tub at Gayle's and saw a young bear walk across the lawn. The picture is of a bear we had last year.

We have had a lot of rain but on the warm days the turtles come out to sun on a fallen tree.

Hope you are having fun going to the park and playing on your swing.

Lots of love,

Nai Nai & Granddad

NAI NAI'S DAY

Hi Maggie,

I hope you had a lot of fun at the Dragon Boat Races.

I have been busy working in my garden and working at the Boutique. My friend Gayle and I work out at the Gym every morning except Sunday when we sleep in. Granddad goes on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

We love you and miss you. Talk to you soon,

Love, Nai Nai & Granddad

A DAY IN THE LIFE.......

Good Morning, Maggie,

We miss seeing you. We have been very busy at the cottage which is a long way away. I have been working in my garden and Granddad is getting the boat ready so he can go fishing.

It sounds like you are having a lot of fun. I am glad you like the swing.

We will talk to you soon,

Love Nai Nai & Granddad

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MAGGIE

Maggie, Your birthday party sounded like a lot of fun. Wish we could have been there. We had a party for you here with our good friends Gayle, Dan and Robert.

It must be very exciting to be a big girl of two years old.

Talk to you soon, Love Nai Nai & Granddad

HI FROM SIOUX NARROWS

Hi Maggie,

It was so good to talk to you the other day, we miss you a lot.

FUN AT THE ZOO

Hi Maggie,

I am so glad we were able to go to the Zoo with you. We had a lot of fun. Here are some good pictures. We will talk to you soon and see you in a couple of weeks.

Love Nai Nai & Granddad

Big Adventures

Hi Maggie,

We have been very busy ever since our friends from Sioux Narrows arrived. The weather has finally improved and we are getting lots of sunshine. We took a boat trip and it was a lot of fun. We saw lots of eagles but no seals. We have had two trips to Victoria and that was really nice. Last night we met up with a group of Granddads old University friends - he hadn't seen them for 47 years! We had dinner at the Sampan Chinese Restaurant (a favourite of ours) and it was very nice.

We only have a few days left here and then we will fly back home. We then will see you on the week-end. Looking forward to seeing you.

Love, Nai Nai

More Relatives

Hi Maggie,

It was great to talk to you yesterday. We had lots of family to visit and are having a good time. The group picture is Uncle Allan, Aunt Donna, Jamie & Scott, Nai Nai and Granddad. We were playing miniature golf and Granddad won! The other pictures are Scott with his girlfriend, Jamie and Uncle Allan & Aunt Donna - taken at an Irish Pub on St. Patrick's Day.


We are still getting lots of rain but were able to get out yesterday for a walk and golf. As Granddad says, at least it isn't snow.

Gayle & Dan arrive tomorrow so we are looking forward to seeing them.

Talk to you soon, Love, Nai Nai

LOTS and LOTS OF RAIN!

Hi Maggie,

We have been having a lot of rain lately, hopefully, it will clear up soon. The weather is fairly mild and we have been doing a lot. Thank goodness we have our rain coats and hats!

Yesterday we went to the town of Cumberland which is an old coal mining town and went through a very interesting museum.

The herring run is on now and there are lots of fishing boats. Also, we have seen hundreds of gulls and seals that are feeding on the herring. There are also a lot of eagles. It is very interesting.

It was nice to talk to you the other day. We will call you again soon.

Love Nai Nai and Granddad

Hi From Parksville

Hi Maggie,

We are in Parksville and have a very nice condo. The weather is getting warm - +15C yesterday and we are doing a lot of exploring.

Yesterday, we went into Nanaimo and had a long walk along the waterfront. We saw lots of boats and planes and even some otters.

I really liked my birthday card and gift. Thank-you so much. Have a great day and we will talk to you soon,

Love, Nai Nai
