Stuart & Linda's Visit

Malcolm's brother, Stuart and his wife, Linda, visited from England for two weeks in mid-July. They haven't been back to Canada since our wedding in 2001. Here are some pictures from our various encounters with them. The first images are from the buffalo steak dinner Glen promised them when he travelled to Europe on business last year.

During their visit, Spencer celebrated his 2nd Birthday. Caroline & Greg threw a party for him. Glen did some Kung Fu to entertain everyone. Catherine had a great time playing with the huge amount of toys hidden under their deck.

Some friends of ours threw a Luau party. It was loads of fun, everything tasted great and I suppose what happened was inevitable. A 2 year old + island fare =
