Always dressing up

Little miss Maddison loves to dress up...
In her brothers hat, mittens and back-pack. Or weating all of her skirts at once (with Mama's slippers!)





Love... Love... Love

Lots of Love at the Milroy House this Valentines Day! As always Mom loves to bake her traditional 'Skinner family' heart shaped coookies. Chocolate dipped strawberries made by Mom are a new tradition and a huge hit in the house!

Pizza party on the floor! Followed by a very surprised bithday boy with his special cake.














Gifts... playing with good friends



























And a happy but very tired Mom!











Let the party begin

There were lot's of games at the party!


Build the tallest lego tower..




















































Balloons are still a favourite at a party even if you are as old as 7!


































Oreo face race (with Oreo 100th birthday special edition cookies not yet in market - it pays to have a mom who works at Kraft)


























Guess the number of lego bricks (251 in case you were wondering)




Dustind's 7th Birthday Prep

Mom's favourite part of party planning is well.. the planning and the set up...

Carnival

Mom and Dad went to Quebec City last weekend for Carnival. Mom was there for work... but got to bring Dad along and they had a blast! Stand by for more pictures...

One of the many ice-sculptures found around the city
















Bonhomme - the star of Carnival got off of his float to high-five the 'VIP' area at the parade (other benfits included our own warming room on-site)
















The Kraft Village! Games, Samples, Entertainment and more!
