Welcome back, Laolao & Laoye!

Laolao and Laoye flew back yesterday afternoon for another visit. Originally they were to arrive last Wednesday, but my aunt passed away a week ago so they stayed back for the funeral which delayed their trip a few days. The kids have been looking forward to them coming for several weeks now, and were disappointed at the delay (especially as it meant they missed Mustang's 10th birthday) but are happy to see them.

They’ll be with us for about two or three weeks, then take off in the bus to head east. We’ll join them in Halifax at the end of June for two weeks’ holiday as we meander back to our home city.

They brought birthday gifts for the kids which will be presented tomorrow, at a family birthday supper. Some friends will be joining us to celebrate the three family birthdays (Mustang, Button, Laolao).
