Canada 2011

The kids and I had a wonderful time in Lion's Head for Canada Day this year. We went to the "big parade", watched amazing fireworks in Tobermory, had campfires, went to beach and made new friends with Tony and Jessie from Australia and John Remi from France!

Kortney and her Canada Day shirt!
 Kaitlin and her shirt!
 We liked the decorated goat in the back of this truck during the parade!
 Family watching the parade.
 Later in the night at the docks in Tobermory.

 There was a great firework display over the lake!!
 Travis, mom and of course Carl trying to get the perfect photo.
 Kortney and her new friend Jessie!
 Georgian Bay was very cold, but that didn't stop the kids and Jessie from a little swim!


 Jessie, Kortney and Brinkley in the woods waiting for the camp fire.
 Mom, Tony and Jonh Remi.
 Jessie roasting marshmallows and excited to make her first ever smore!


 Here's Kortney holding a snake at at the museum in South Hampton! My little girl isn't afraid of much!
 Dawson took a turn with a snake too!
 The kids had fun checking out the Grossology exhibit....very yucky!!






 Later at night everyone was glued to their DS's playing games.

 The time finally came to say good bye. It's always bitter sweet when we meet mom's "helper's" since we know the chance of ever seeing them again is very small. One more reason we love Facebook though! It makes the other side of the world not seem so far away.
