Jojo's birthday started with this beautiful sunrise:-)
Muhy opening birthday presents and cards (in pj's:-)!
Ha ha ha! present from dada Malaika and mama kubwa has definitely come in super handy this season, GO PACKERS!!!!!!!! 
This place was crazier than we've ever seen ~ I guess it was New Year's Eve, ha!
Aaahhhh, exhausted (on the ride home), now that's how you end your birthday celebration!!! 
We had an awesome breakfast at a French restaurant (ground floor of this building) before leaving Vancouver
Here, Justin reading the sign that said "2 hours to the border", which we thought was going to be hell (little did we know it was going to take 3.5 hours)!!!
Even though we had to wait for grueling 3.5 hours to get through the border, Jojo did not cry or whine once! He sang most of the time, and we of course played all kinds of creative games... here he is at around 2.5 hours. I guess we shouldn't be surprised, Muhy loves riding in the car, so it was just part of the adventure for him we guess:-) He IS active, but not whiny, thank heavens!
We finally made it, yay!
We must be approaching Vancouver, no snow!!!
Drive to Vancouver from Whistler...
shopping on Robson Street on Boxing Day was interesting!
View from our hotel room...
Walking to dinner...
This awesome restaurant knows how to entertain kids (and adults... see Justin below) - their treat for the kids is not the usual boring crayons, but this bendable sticky material you can turn into many things... aka glasses (thank goodness Justin is creative, I'm not!) ~ Liu
Bye bye our home for 4 days... The staff at the Westin were awesome, we'll be back next summer!
Jojo enjoying his new hat from a very generous and sweet 9-year old girl from Australia (long story)!
Surprise visit from Santa at Christmas brunch was a HIT for all the kids (and parents)!!!
Merry Christmas!!!
Goofing off with mama:-)
Muhy loved being pulled on the sled throughout the village...
Strolling in the village...

Swimming outside at night was soooooooo much fun!
Light Christmas dinner at the hotel lounge...
