Playground Tourists

One of our favourite fun/cheap/easy outings is to visit playgrounds in other parts of the city. We have 2 playgrounds very near to our house that the boys have mastered, and it's cute to watch how excited they get over some place new. Here are some pictures of the boys, delighted to check out the equipment in Forest Hills.

 Some things are better together

 They loved the pirate ship!

Gardeners

Isaac and Simon helped Nan plant some vegetables this year, and
enjoyed checking in on their plants whenever they visited Nan and Pop

 Simon loved whenever it was time to pick some...

 ...But Isaac isn't really a fan of getting his hands dirty.

Isaac's Pirate Party

Isaac celebrated his birthday a week early with all of his friends at a pirate-themed party. It was a sunny fun afternoon!

Fun with Cousins

Jane's brother, Joe, and his family visited from Toronto. The kids had oodles of fun playing with their cousins!
