At the Park

Troy was working last weekend so I took the kids for a little bike ride down by the river.

We collected leaves....


And small trees...

And caterpillars!

Had a couple bike races...(especially when it started raining!)

Then headed down to a little beach to throw rocks in the river....

Until we realized the beach was completely under water!

 Stopped to get another look at the very high river...

A little bit of pestering from the best pester'er around.... Sunny bugging Fletch for a smooch

And Gibby for a hug...

Besties

I got to spend the day with two of my bestest friends and their beautiful little girls.

Aren't they gorgeous?  That's Avary and Lydia.  xoxoxo

Fletcher was pretty smitten with little miss Liddy (a fellow ginger!)

But then he's had a lifelong crush on this little lady too... he's such a lover!

We had an awesome day... everyone was happy... and they all napped well... it was wonderful! I just wish it was longer... sigh... love you girls!

Weekend Away

This past weekend we attended our good friends, Jade and Jason's wedding.  It was so wonderful out in Cypress Hills... and it was kid-free so Troy and I thoroughly enjoyed our little mini-holiday! I was privileged to be co-MC for the event and everything went very smoothly... such a beautiful wedding and such a deserving, wonderful pair! It was a bit of a Shaunavon High School reunion as lots of old friends were in attendance... here's the best shot I got of the Shaunee girls!

My parents had the kids for the weekend and I imagine they are now enjoying relaxing in the peace and quiet of their own home.  They kept the kids very busy with trips to the parks and local fair.  Here's a few shots my mom took of the kids at Griffin's preschool spring concert...

I feel so lucky to have my parent's help.  Not too many people could handle my little herd... and my mom always makes it look easy.  She took them all to Griff's concert by herself and even took photos and videos for me since I missed out!
