Nanny and Lisa come to visit

I was not too pleased to hear the phone ring this morning at 9am as we arrived home late last night and only hit the sack around 1. Someone answered the phone after only one ring so I guess the kids were not as tired as I was. Nobody shouted anything out so I figured it must have been a friend of the kids calling.
Eventually Nicole and myself made it out of bed and eventually Jacob got around to telling me that nanny called and she and Lisa would be coming over around 2pm. This shifted our plans a little and I did a quick cleanup and we were set for visitors.
Mom and Lisa (my sister) stayed the afternoon and had a good visit with the girls. Jacob was at a friend's house working on a project so he was away most of the afternoon. Nicole and I snuck out for an hour and picked up some groceries and then just did odds and ends around the house till suppertime.

After supper we went for a bike/walk. The kids wanted to get their bikes for the first ride of 2006 and Nicole was to sore to bike so we walked behind them. Jacob cut Erica off and she went for a tumble into the ditch. Fortunately, the ditch was not full off water so she did not get too wet, but she was rather upset!
