For our 10th anniversary we spent the weekend in Victoria Canada. Victoria is special to us, since that is where we went on our honeymoon almost 10 years to the day. It was wonderful to spend a relaxing weekend together away from the busy life and just enjoy our time with each other. We couldn't believe it had been 10 years, and what a great 10 years it's been!
We stayed in a very quaint Bed and Breakfast called Abigail's.
In front of the Bed and Breakfast was this Whale statue. Many of these are found at various locations throughout Victoria.This was our favorite street vendor. We gave him $ on several different occasions. Our favorite thing to watch, was when someone would take a picture of him without paying. He would scowled them in his music box type of way.
We are too attached to Jacob to leave him at home, (I guess we can separate ourselves from our other children more easily) so he spent the weekend with us. He was a sweet baby, with the exception of when he had a complete blowout over lunch! We quickly took him home and bathed him in the bathroom sink. Other than that we completely enjoyed having him with us, he doesn't talk nearly as much as our other children and he always stays close to us. It was fun for us to enjoy just him! We were asked on a number of occasions "Is this your first? We loved the reaction when we would reply "no it's our 4th."
Did you know Victoria has the tallest Totem Pole?
We got pretty friendly with this seal. He liked us because we fed him fish scraps from a local butcher.
Beautiful Victoria!
On the way home we saw the coolest rainbow we had ever seen. The picture doesn't do it justice. We could see the beginning of this bright rainbow and the end of it. Our boat was able to go right under it! It was quite spectacular. Zeke said it was a great way to end our weekend. So somewhere over the rainbow, dreams really do come true!

Happy anniversary! What a fun way to celebrate 10 years together. I would have loved to have seen some of those peoples' reactions when you told them Jacob was your 4th child!
