A Double Party!

 Kaitlin's birthday this year came and went without much time for a party with her friends. Avery, one of her best friends has her birthday a couple weeks after Kaitlin. They decided to have their party together which worked out perfect!!











                    Together with their friends.

 The birthday girls!

Kaitlin has been spending a lot of time watching Cake Boss and Cupcake Wars on TV lately. For her birthday she really wanted everyone to decorate their own cake. Not as easy as it looks on TV, but they all had fun anyway!

 And of course they spend the rest of the day swimming and having fun in Whyte's pond!

The finished cakes they all took home.

A Day Away

 We didn't get away from the farm long, but we managed to get to Lion's Head and enjoy some time on the beach and at Grandma B's.

 Kicking butt at soccer!

 

The water was COLD, but Dawson managed to get Dan in for a bit!

On our walk along the docks we saw two families of ducks we had to stop and watch for a while :)

                               

 Checking out the new telescope along the water's edge.

 Roasting marshmallows at the campfire.....The kids couldn't wait for coals and had to roast them while the fire was strong.

 Even got a picture of Travis and me!!

Looks like another painting, but nope! We worked on a puzzle on the porch and got it done before we had to leave.

Canada Day 2012

 Every year friends of ours have a Canada Day party which we have yet to get to. This year we were home and the weather was perfect for drinks, games and fireworks!


The water balloon fight :)

 

 Kortney sliding down the waterslide! Once she finally tried she wouldn't stop.

 Balloon animals!













Kaitlin didn't get in on the fun, but she still ended up with a balloon.

         Kortney was in on everything, even the face painting!

 Somehow I missed pics of Dawson on the slide and with his assortment of balloons!

                                                               Kortney and her friend.

A Chinese lantern was also set off after the fireworks.
