Our family got together a bit earlier than usual this year. Jo and the boys visited in July. They usually visit in August. What always surprises us when we first see them is how much everyone grew!! Lucas is incredibly tall! He is taller than everyone by far.
Maelie of course is always happy to play with the cousins. They have a LOT of energy!
Within minutes of arriving, everyone is off doing something!
The river is always refreshing :)
They are safe from the mosquitos when under water! On the deck however, I was being eaten alive!
Nathan was in love with frog catching this year :)
Grand-maman and her grand kids!
Maelie of course LOVES to take me on a ride on the ATV. I don't like it so much! She likes going on hills and bumps... me? not so much!
We stopped by at the city pool one afternoon. It is HUGE! Saldy, the water was a mere 65 degrees... so Maelie swam the most, Nathan was in and out but the others? TOO FROZEN!
We enjoyed a bit of play time at the park.
CHEESE!
Grand maman took the kids fishing in the river. Nathan was quite excited to catch a fish!
While riding the ATV, Lucas spotted a turtle! Grand maman brought it back to show us, and then let it go in the river.
His nails were quite scratchy! At least he was not a snapping turtle!
Some afternoons, we headed off to visit grand papa and Lucie. Sadly, I didn't even get a picture!! When the grand kids come over, it's time to take all I-pads out and get them fixed! Maelie loves setting them up. I guess this is how I felt when I was younger and explained to my mom how to record a song on the tape player. We feel so much smarter than our elders! LOL now *I* am part of the elders!
More to come....
