Summer Fun

We have been busy and having lots of fun....
It is hard to believe that we are already three weeks in. I hate the feeling of the summer slipping away, but we have been having such a great time that it doesn't really matter, and we have so many more fun things planned!


We spent three days at my friends new cottage in Hanover. It was great to spend so much time with friends I rarely get to see anymore. I can't even begin to tell you how many memories were flooding back from the good old days when we use to cottage together before kids... I even had gone skinny dipping.. I know you don't believe it, but it was fun. This time it was a different kind of fun. It was great to catch up, and to have our kids actually get to know each other. By the end the kids were all very sad to leave.

Our lovie picture at the cottage!


The three year olds had a blast together! At this point they were racing to see who could swim faster! All three of them just started to really enjoy the water a week prior to this outing and we couldn't get them out of the lake!


Owen fishing with his dad for the first time. This boy loves animals... catching frogs, fishing, playing with the minnows, you name it, he loved it!


Speaking of love.... I believe my boys are developing my love of ice cream! Our trip to Marineland and Niagara Falls wasn't complete without a stop in Niagara on the Lake for some COWS ice cream! I remember being on the east coast and stopping at every COWS ice cream store around! This was the highlight of this trip for me!


The boys were actually interested in seeing Niagara Falls this time around!

Niagara Falls Indoor Waterpark is a blast! We have so much fun there everytime we go! It is located right downtown and a skywalk away from our hotel!


The boys always request a visit to Marineland! They love this place! Both of them love the shows and seeing all of the water animals!

My boys are swimmers! You can't keep them out of the pool. Owen has actually become a bit of a pool snob... he doesn't want the blow up pool in the back anymore, or the slip and slide, it has to be an inground pool like his grandparents!

Owen was the soccer star this year! He really did well and loved every minute of it!


What a hidden gem... Oak Lake Beach is 10 minutes from our house and so great! The kids love the warm water, all of the toys at the beach and the cute little snack shack!

We also have visited the Toronto Zoo! The boys highlight was the stingray exhibition!
