A trip to Napanee





In August we headed to Napanee for a visit with Cathy and Emily. We had such a great time, wish we could have stayed longer! Makayla and Nicholas went on a date with Emily to see The Smurfs one afternoon, they loved it! They were lucky enough to go swimming with Cathy in her friend's pool. We all headed to Sandbanks provincial park so that the kids could swim in Lake Ontario and so that Michael and I could look at the campsites. Makayla and Nicholas absolutely loved feeding the ducks in the river behind Cathy's house. So much fun!

Swimming, Swimming in the swimming pool




We are so very thankful to our neighbours for letting us swim in their pool when they are not home (and sometimes when they are!). It was a hot summer and the kids loved cooling off in the pool!

Soccer 2011









Another great soccer season for Makayla and Nicholas! This year they were both lucky enough to have Michael coach their teams. Both had a ton of fun and greatly improved their soccer season. They can't wait until next year!

At the Cottage







We headed to the Cottage a couple times this summer. Makayla and Nicholas love it there. Lots of space to run around and play, and the water right there to cool off in. Not to mention getting to spend time with Gramma and Sophie!

Camping










This year we camped at Valens to see what it was like. The kids LOVE camping. There was a nice beach and lake that they spent a lot of time at. Makayla had a great time canoeing with Michael, she was a quick learner!

Canada Day Fun






Makayla and Nicholas always look forward to Canada Day here in Brantford. We head down to the local Canada Day festivities where the kids get to enjoy the fairway and lots of yummy treats. And of course fireworks at night!!
