Category: Picture of the Day

Today I have a collage of the kids at the plat from baseball tonight. Of course for Jacobs team the big games start next week with their first playoff double-header.

Today I headed down to the Rogers Centre to watch the Blue Jays beat the Orioles 5-1. With my picture of the day I was trying to capture the moon over the ball park.

Ever since Jacob got his Super Soaker Tornado Strike for his birthday a few years back, I’ve been looking for a good water gun for me so we could have water fights. I’ve wanted to get a gun that’s compatible with the water clips that Jacob’s Tornado Strike uses.  With summer winding down water guns are disappearing from the stores, I was beginning to think that I’d have to wait till next year to find a water gun. While shopping today I saw some water guns and clips on clearance, so I stocked up. I couldn’t believe how cheap it all was. I can’t wait till the weekend, when the kids and I can have a water fight.

Today we headed down to Lakeshore Mardi Gras. The kids had a blast riding the different rides. I captured today’s picture of the day while Violet rode on the little train. We spent most of the afternoon there hoping that it wouldn’t rain. We almost made it through the entire day before the skies really opened up. Jacob was thrilled when he found thatbhis best friend Daniel was also at Mardi Gras.

Today we ended our Family adventure,  by saying goodbye to an old friend (POD: Today we met a Bear). We had a great time on our family adventure vacation. As much as I was sad to see it end, it’s nice to be sleeping in our own beds tonight.

Today we have a collage from Jacobs water slide adventure. He has wanted to go down the Tornado since last summer.  Today he finally did,  and loved it.  I was thrilled to be able to catch him on the way down.  It was just one of many water slides that my little guy went down today.

The family adventure continues….  It’s so adventurous we decided to take a brake in the first chair we found.

Today we start our family adventure weekend,  and as you can see from today’s picture of the day,  it started with a bang.

Today Melissa came home with a huge bone for Ruby. She loves it, and spent the evening with it.

So today Melissa headed out and picked up a new snow suit for Violet.  It seems wrong to be buying winter clothing in the middle of summer,  but if we wait the sizes our kids need will be gone.
