Time Travelling In Windsor

My nephew


So Jeff and I spent the weekend in Windsor with his brother and family. Case and Debbie have two boys and a girl, and we don't get to see them as often as we'd like because of geography and schedules.

Debbie and her daughter


Because of this, I feel a little time traveller-ish whenever we do see them, watching our niece and nephews grow up at fast-forward speeds. My niece, for example, is teetering on the brink of adolescence. When did that happen?!? She's way more confident and together than I ever was at her age.

We played games on the Wii, attended one of our nephew's hockey practices (Case is an assistant coach), watched Camp Rock, ate Debbie's wonderful cooking, and browsed Somerset Mall.

Jeff and a nephew


Jeff and I both bought stuff at the Apple Store in the mall. He bought a car kit that works with his iPhone. I bought an Incase Slider Case for my iPhone as well as Altec Lansing UHS307 Earclip-S In-Ear Headphones. I've never been able to keep the regular Apple earbuds from falling out of my ears (I must have deformed ears or something) so have been looking for in-ear headphones that also have a microphone.

Siblings :-)


The photo at the top of this post is of the youngest boy, who really REALLY likes his DS. He'd become so absorbed in his games that he wasn't aware of his physical position. I walked into the living room one morning to find him playing in the position below, for instance. :-)

Anyway, many thanks to Debbie and Case for being such wonderful hosts. :-) The photos today are from our visit this past weekend, posted here with permission from Deb and Case.
