Happy Canada Day

Happy Canada Day!  Jamie was working so I thought it would be fun to take the kids downtown to the legislature building so that we could participate in all the activities.  It was a very warm day so the wading pools were a great place to hang out.  This is Darien with his "friend" 

The boys having some fun.

It felt good to cool off.

The only problem was that is was crazy busy.

Our little snuggle man.

Keagan was trying to be cool but not too cool for us.  LOL

Way more fun with water guns.

This was one of the first places that we came to when we moved to Edmonton.  Darien was just a baby and I used to come here every day with him because the hotel we were staying in was three blocks away.

My cute boys.

Having some fun.

It was a great way to celebrate our countries birth.  :)

Final Snuggles

My final snuggles.  No need to say more.  It has been a long time since he has done this but it was like it need to happen for us to enjoy our final days.

I love this little boy to the moon and back.  Until we meet again my love.

Boys Weekend

The boys were off to a friends very rustic farm this weekend.  And they had an amazing time.  This farm is out in the back and beyond.  There is no running water or electricity so it is camping in a framed house.  LOL

Here they are ready for their war. LOL

My boys were in heaven with all the freedom to run and play with no real boundaries and threats.

The lake on the land.

A good old game of baseball.  I love looking at these pictures and thinking about how much clean fun they had.

Rylan taking a ride on the the tractor.

Even Stefan got to try.  Was it for fun or were they making them work and they just didn't know it.  LOL

They are all ready.  Poor Ms. B is the only girl but don't be fooled she can hold her own. 

Breakfast time.

Safety first  who doesn't want to do some archery.

Great friends.

Some foose ball fun.

Driving in the old tercel.  What they nicknamed the Terc.

Cruising!  You can't tell me this doesn't look fun.  LOL

It is an oldie but goodie.

The grass was so tall you could hardly see it.  Plus the bugs were endless.  LOL

And there is the proof.

Rylan and their grandpa.

Ok so maybe it wasn't all clean fun.  LOL

The sleeping quarters.

Everyone had a place.

The closest neighbors

Poor Darien had the worst allergies while he was there.  His eyes were so swollen that he had a hard time seeing.  I am pretty sure it did not damper their time there though.  :)

Happy Birthday Stefan

Here we are another year gone!!!  I can not believe that Stefan is now 7 years old.  He has been such a wonderful addition to our family.  He is the most caring and generous child I know.  If he has three treats he is more than happy to offer every single candy to other people. If he is putting his dishes in the dish washer and there are dishes that need to be put in he will do it without even been asked.  He is also the quiet little stinker that likes to get his brothers going.  Like a true little brother.

As usual we don't do anything major for parties but they can have a couple of friends over.

Ready for his cake or should I say icing.  LOL

Happy Birthday to our baby.

He is 7!!!!

Here he is with his friends.

Present time.  It was a great day in so many ways.  Love you Stefan.

Riding a Big Boy Bike

Happy Birthday Stefan!!  Here he is with his bigger bike.  It is just a little bit too big or him but he is so excited to have gears.

It is so great to see our boys growing up and loving like.

Last Day of School

The last day of another wonderful school year. Once again I am so thankful for the teachers that are patient and so helpful with my children.  They have all had a great year of learning.

I am always so thankful when the year is over and we can have a little bit of a break and get ready for the next year.  School is OUT!!!

Fieldtrip with My Boy

This was another trip back to Fort Edmonton but this time with Rylan.  The weather was way better!!   I have done this field trip so many times I feel like I live there.  LOL
