To the Zoo

Last Saturday was a busy day. I had to work in the early morning a than at 10:30 my parents, my sister and her family and my bro Adam and his family all arrived at my house and we caravanned to Moncton to go to the Zoo to celebrate Cecilie’s birthday.

We decided to make it an adventure, we’d rent a 15 passenger van and all travel together. We had one too many people, so we ended up with a 15 passenger van and a single car.

Corey and I volunteered to set in the back of the van with the kids…and it was a fun ride! Lots of sing songs, animal sound games, and what’s a road trip without a few snacks for the drive.
The kids had an amazing time at the Moncton Zoo. Here are all the cousins together (we sure wish Tristan, Emma and Ava could have been there too).

They fed the goats:

We saw Lions, Tigers and Bears (…oh my…)

Here are a couple of our monkeys looking in on the monkeys at the zoo.

Liam really liked feeding the:

Here is the entire group of us.

Then we went to Ponderosa for supper and birthday presents, here is the birthday girl with Uncle Corey, ready to head out for supper.

All in all it was a wonderful day in Moncton!

Spring has arrived

Spring has sprung and Summer is just around the corner!

Corey and I have had a wonderful the past few weeks cleaning up the yard, purchasing new ride-on lawn mower, and getting ready for summer in our spare time. I’m excited to fix up the flower beds in a couple weeks time, and seed some new grass in our yard.

This past weekend we have a wonderful day Sunday when we took one or our nieces, Cecilie, to the Family Day in Summerside. She got her face painted, played on the inflatable’s, went to a puppet show and a children’s concert, enjoyed the wonderful clowns and princesses, made her own princess crown, and just had a fantastic day!
