It is taking forever for this weather to feel the slightest bit summery. Its like 1 nice sunny day where shorts can be worn a week. But this past weekend, we had a bit more of that summery weather and took advantage!
Saturday started off rainy and Logan's first soccer day of the season got cancelled because of the thunderstorms.
Around 10:30 (Leahs am nap time), we headed to Waterloo for Maiko's 7th birthday and since we were in for the long drive, we took advantage by popping into St Jacobs market for a bit. It was nice when we were walking around the outside market and we got some baked deliciousness... some apple fritters and a baked pizza like bread with olives and peppers.
And we found a creole cooking place inside the market and this food was so good, the picture does it no justice. Ive never had hush puppies and they were so good. The others are blackened rice and fried plantains. And Logans mac and cheese because... Logan. Im actually impressed he ate it all!
We spent so much time at the market eating!! While Logan had his popsicle, we had some of the baked goodness and then the creole food and when it started raining, we headed out. It was also just in time for the party!
We stopped to visit the horses on the way out.
And because our little picnic got rained out, Logan had the rest of his mac and cheese in the car!
And we made it to the play place for Maikos birthday! Logan was too busy to eat waffles because he wanted to play but Leah didn't pass them up! Logan made up for it by eating 2 cupcakes.
Just a regular balanced diet for our Logan of mac and cheese and cupcakes. And some goldfishes on the way home to really add some proper nutrition.
Maiko is the biggest fan of Mario and has had a Mario birthday for the past few years but this year he really stepped outside of his Mario and did sonic. He knows what he likes!
And Tabis cake was amazing as always!
The birthday finished around 4-4:30pm and we started the drive home right when it started raining and this was the night there was a severe weather warning and we got caught in what felt like a hurricane. At one point we had to stop because we couldnt see at all through the window. It was scary... the kids slept through it all!
Sunday we had some nice weather! Before Teegan's birthday, we cracked some cold ones (this chardonnay based beer... yum!) and brought out the new fire hydrant sprinkler. Logan was in heaven!
Teegan's birthday party was at 2pm so we headed to the farm. Logan doesn't let me call it Uncle Al's house and it must be called Uncle Al's farm.
Leah being her happy self. She loves to have her hands held and walk everywhere... and walk with her walker.
The babies! Teegan is now 1 and Leah will be in exactly 1 month. Leah is definitely taller tough!!
So many kiddos lined up having snacks. Teegan's all ready in her chair for presents.
Teegan's smash cake! At first she just wanted to smash and smoosh but eventually got into eating too!
And Logan was most excited for this... the forest walk and chasing Moose. Funny I can't actually spot Logan in this picture.. he must be the first gone.
Their farm actually has an amazing forest that we can go for a hike through and it's Logan's favourite thing ever. He loves to find golf balls (theyre backed right onto a gold course).
