We had a lot of fun hanging out at Nana & Papa's house all week while we were in Calgary. It was crowded. Really, really crowded. We didn't all sleep there, but we pretty much all congregated there every day. Nana and Papa were incredible to host all of us. My cousins, the Nilssons, were so helpful too. Although we couldn't go out and do much, it was just fun to all be together...even in such close quarters!
So, what do you do with 5 kids and a whole bunch of adults crammed into one house when it's too cold to go outside and play? You make your own fun...

Big thanks to my Nana and Papa for allowing us to invade their home for a week. And big thanks to my parents for bringing us all together. It was such a wonderful week to just be together and hang out...and a bit (or a lot) of wedding stuff too!
