Summer Fun


It has been an interesting summer thus far. The weather here in Manitoba has not been that stellar a few nice days here and there. This past weekend it finally felt like a summer weekend with lot's of fun things to do.
On Friday my amazing husband came home and saw that both Abby and Mommy needed a break from each other. He suggested we set up the tent and Abby and he would spend the night outside in our backyard. Abby was so excited. I feel pretty lucky to have such a great hubby. I was so surprised when she stayed out the whole night. My baby is growing up.
On Saturday we headed out to the Morden Corn and Apple Festival. It was so much fun. It was a nice drive then we hit the festival. The crowds were pretty crazy and we really only spent time at the petting zoo but it was fun to get out and dosomething different as a family.
Abby was so brave and rode the horse by herself. She didn't even look at Mom or Dad during the whole ride she was just so excited. She also loved seeing all the different animals and petting them.
Natalie is doing great. She is an awesome sleeper so far and such a laid back personality. She seems so content and only cries for a reason. No all nighters with this girl. I am so grateful to have such a wonderful baby. We did a photoshoot with Grandpa and our friend Ruth just waiting to get some pics back. Here is one that Daddy captured of her in her blessing dress.
Tomorrow is canning day. Grandma and I are each doing a case of peaches. I am so excited to have them in my pantry for the winter. Everyone at this house loves peaches!!! Yum Yum!!
