Our Summer Days

This weekend Scott, Emma and I joined the Pierobon's (minus the Mrs.) at Queenston splash pad and park. It is a great park. Even though it is the July long weekend with 2 large family picnics going on, the splash pad wasn't overflowing with kids. Eli, Ava and Emma thoroughly enjoyed running in and out of the water.

The park has a great slides and running boards. I think the running up the stairs and down the slide a 100 times does it in for every child! Needless to say withing 5 minutes of Emma hitting the pillow, she was out cold!

Emma and I like to pick flowers out of our garden once or twice a day. She loves to smell everyone's flowers as we walk! We have many small vases FULL of lavender. Our house smells WONDERFUL! Emma really likes our back neighbor Sabrina. Every time we pick flowers Emma says "This one is for Sabrina" What a little sweety! She has taken lavender to all the neighbors at least once.

Kaylyn is very happy that school is over! She is having a good time at her dad's. She will be meeting me with Aunt Patti, Sami and Ryan on Tuesday so we can head up to the cottage. We really enjoy getting all the family together. It is "Our Version" of family. It usually is Patti, Sami, Ryan (her kids) with Scott's sister-in-law Tanya, Brad, Katie, Ali (her kids) and me with Kaylyn and Emma. Sometimes the guys come, but we girls really enjoy each others company! I do believe the guys are coming up on Friday for a couple of days with us.

Scott had to show them how to get wet under the waterfall, but even then it took some convincing. They all looked at him like he was crazy! We all do from time to time!

Here is an example of birds of a feather, flocking together! Proof that she is more like Scott than I. He is the one who usually ends up in the water with Emma. Scott really enjoys his time with her. She can talk him into almost anything! Here, Scott is trying to get Emma under the waterfall and Emma thinks they should get out of the water! Bossy bossy! (hehehe)

This is Scott's best friend Jason and his two little ones Eli and Ava. We try to get them together as much as possible. They play and share really well with each other.

I hope everyone is enjoying there summer as well!
