An afternoon to relax

Last week we took an afternoon to relax and breathe.  It was sunny, and we had to go to Abbotsford, so we took some time at one of Mill Lake's playgrounds.  The sun was shining, a lot of people were out, and we threw in a nice walk around the lake for good measure :).

Slides are the best!

Enjoying the train

 and the swing - see the beautiful blue sky?! 

 "rolling" on the hill with a new friend - ever cautious meant more of a 'sit-roll'

 Sitting in the baby slide...

 But don't these wood chips look interesting...see how far past my feet I can reach?

 Ah, victory!  Now, to see how they taste!

 Watching my big sister is my favorite thing to do - she can entertain me for hours!

 Enjoying the warmth of the sun after watching the ducks

 And today - more of an inside afternoon, but the love still shines through.

 Greetings from this pretty princess!  Auntie Carolyn, don't I look spiffy in my outfit from you?  I'm 8.5 months now, and still growing like a weed.

Thanks for reading :)  Enjoy your day!

the many faces...

cheerful but bratty

 a study of concentration

 mischievous

 delighted in fun with friends

 pouting...must be the age

 enjoying the first swing ride

 but maybe it was too high?

 the love of sisters

 "Daddy, I'm driving your digger!"

 two different forms of concentration

 watching my daddy, my hero

 two little monkeys

 a new game - deserving of many giggles...the dump truck drives up in reverse, Brynlie grabs on, the dump truck slowly drives away and they both giggle and giggle

 story time - what is that crazy big sister of mine doing?!

 awwwwwwwww - a lot of love here

 as goofy as she can be

  

and enjoying the friendship of cousins...these delightful trio of girls plus their adorable baby brother are my Uncle Ed's lovely children.  Brynlie and Chelsie enjoyed play time with them this week :)

Thanks for sharing our pictures with us!  Have a wonderful week.
