A visit with Auntie Patty...

The boys finally had a chance to meet their Auntie Patty today.  She was in town from Winnipeg and we were fortunate enough to spend the evening with her.  Zachary and Nicolas played shy at first but warmed up after a while.  Charlie was enjoying the extra attention and kept making sure she was watching him.

The big boys were so excited to hear that Auntie Patty could drive a train!  She works for CN and is licensed to drive a train.  Sadly, it is not the type of thing that she could give the boys a ride on a train, but they were still very impressed by the thought of it.  Frankly, I was very impressed by this piece of knowledge.

Here is a picture of her with the boys.  We enjoyed our visit and wished it could have lasted longer. Hopefully it won't be nearly as long before we get to visit with her again...
