We just got back from a great week on Vancouver Island visiting family and friends. We were pretty much non-stop action and enjoyed each moment. Here's a few highlights...
Megan got a Disney Princess Merida from 'Brave' and seems to be all consumed with it lately. Her Auntie Heather and two cousins (Colin & Wesley) added to her enthralment when they made her a bow and arrows. She even napped with it the first day...very cute!
If you look at Matthew in the background, he too had a Disney character favourite - Buzz Lightyear - and he's activating the arm laser beam to give Princess Megan a zap zap zap!
But Princess Megan was quick to return fire...LOL! All the cousins had an amazing time together. The older cousins were excellent with the younger ones and we all avoided any significant meltdowns!
Here's Nana and Baba with all their grandchildren!
There was always lots to eat and some amazing weather to enjoy eating outside!
Tons of time for games too!
And we had an invite to go pick some berries! We managed to talk Megan out of her princess dress too!
Everyone had to help pick...or they couldn't help eat!
And Megan and mommy were both really happy with the fruits of their labour!
The rewards!!
More family sit down and eating!
And tons of smiles...
Tons of hanging out....
And tons of being silly and acting like a kid again!
And who can forget the beaches! We saw a few during our week away - each one with new rocks, starfish, sand dollars, crabs, eagles and much more to explore!
Some hikes to make the kids tired!
And some water sports to make the adults tired!!
Everyone loved our day @ the lake too! Whether we were playing games...
Or just relaxing with a Strongbow!
Holidays are an adventure with kids and it's fun to see the world through their eyes and enjoy things again.
Thanks for a great time away!!
