A Visit from Papa and "the Boys"

Last week Papa Joe, Paul and Peter made a whirlwind trip down to visit. We were so happy to have the company and show them where we live. We had a great time relaxing and visiting. I managed to remember to take a few pictures. I'll add more when Pete forwards them!!

Mommy was trying to get Ryan to pose after the guys left. Sean would have nothing to do with it!

Officer Sean is always on duty. Enjoying his new uniform courtesy of an early birthday gift from Nana and Papa Joe.

We put in an underground fence and Uncle Pete was helping to train Stanley.

FORE!!

Papa Joe and Uncle Paul look on as Sean works on his drive!

He's a Climber!!

Saturday evening, as Mommy and Daddy chatted with the neighbours and bbq'd some dinner, Ryan found is way UP and INTO his watertable! So Mommy did what any good parent would do... ran and got the camera! He entertained himself in there nicely while we enjoyed our steak on the deck! What are you gonna do...

Big brother Sean looks on disapprovingly!

4th of July Family Fun

Grandma, Grandpa, Nick, Jake, Annika and Austin helped us enjoy an afternoon of fun in the sun. We decided to try out a pool as a way to beat the heat. The boys are loving it... Mommy and Daddy too. Who know... maybe next summer..

Centreville

Dad and I spent a day at my favourite childhood spot...Centre Island! We had such a good time. Sean loved the ferry ride over. We couldn't get over how much he remembered from last year! I didn't get as many pictures as I would have liked, but I chose to sit back an enjoy, riding the rides with him. Good decision I think.

The train is always a favourite!

This is high enough for mommy!

Checking out the lake...brrr!

Sean talked Papa into "mowing" almost everyday!

Papa gave Sean an early birthday gift.

He is developing quite a swing.

He even offered to teach mommy how to chip!
