We found a new park!!

-

We found an amazing park today! It kind of reminded me of back home. :( We were just driving around, trying to take advantage of the last few hours of warmth, after spending all day inside gardening. It was the coolest park. It had everything the girls love! Swings, slides, climbing structures and a road to drive their scooters on. 
 











Here is Ayla having fun on the swings. It always starts out this way. Look at me! I am so sweet and innocent :) Doesn't she look sweet and friendly?....Haha

Then when you least suspect it......She turns into a ninja and kicks you in the hip...Haha. She does this ninja thing every time you don't suspect a thing. And she thinks it is hilarious!

The slide was so nice. There was no static at all!! I loved it. Madison and Bill played on it most of the time we were here. He pretty mush chased her up it like every 5 seconds :) Not annoying at all, Daddy!...Haha.

See what I mean? Silly Daddy, you are supposed to go down the slide, not up it.

I climbed up on top of this structure, hoping to get better pics. Bill thought he would be funny and take a pic of me at the same time. This bridge felt so cool to walk on. it was suspended and wobbly. 

Bill grabbed Madison off the slide and ran away with her :) I don't know if you can tell from the pics, but this ground was all rubber, like turf, and it was so comfy to walk on(and fall on).




The best part though, and the part that reminded me of back home, was this scooter/bike path. It reminded me of when the teens were little and we used to ride scooters around Beban Park in Nanaimo, BC. We would take the kids there with all their cousins. It was always a great time. I can't believe we went to Nanaimo last summer and we never even stopped there :(

We played for a bit by ourselves and then a really nice family showed up. The parents and even the teens/pre-teens invited us into their game of Tag. It was a lot of fun to act like a kid...Haha. We had to be the bad guys though and tell the girls it was bedtime. It was a lot of fun and a great end to our Sunday. 

What was really nice is that this is close to home and didn't take much travel time! It was a really fun day trip......until the next one :)

    This was great! Where is the green at the park? ;-) I like watching the girls active and they are growing up too fast. Nice park ( even without the green grass).

    It was a newly developed area :) There is grass surrounding the park, but not a lot in the community yet. It's going to be beautiful when it's done!

    This was the second-greatest 먹튀프렌즈 benefit to them for switching to a central laptop server remotely updating the odds of particular person slot machines. This list a table of reel image combos with what number of} credit received. As already explained for an old-style slot machine, most of those outcomes are a zero win. The game could possibly have been traded throughout the continent for Europe, however others say the Romans have been partially accountable.

An 8 year old can get migraines?!?!?!

FRIDAY: Here we are at 1:22am. Yes you see that correctly. It says AM! So backstory: Every afternoon since Tuesday, Madison has been having severe eye, head, and ear pain. We had been treating her with ibuprofen thinking she may be sick. On Friday we figured there is probably something bigger going on, so we decided to take her to the IWK children's hospital. I left work an hour early, 5:00pm, and we grabbed some fast food(because we all know this is going to be a long visit). After getting through Halifax's rush hour traffic, it was 6:15 when we arrived at the hospital.  The Triage nurse checked her vitals, then gave her some ibuprofen. It took about 45 minutes to get put in a room, which is record time for the children's ER. It was pretty busy that night too. The girls ate some of their dinner while we waited to be seen. I know it's not the healthiest option...Haha. The nurse came in after about 15 minutes, took her vitals and asked some questions. Madi...

Building our backyard :)

It's been a while........ When we bought our house last year, we were left with little(no) money and little time. The yard was definitely not on our to-do list yet. We built some veggie gardens, but nothing really fun for the girls or for us to relax(although we did build them a small sandbox). This year we had slightly bigger plans :) I mean, we still have no money...Haha, but we didn't want this summer to be boring. It's a bit blurry, not sure why? It wasn't blurry on my phone. This was our first project(after gardening of course.....I have an update on that as well). The girls have never really had a fun yard(since our trampoline in Nanaimo, but Madison was only 3 when we moved). They definitely needed their first swing set. I built it while Bill was at work. I was pretty proud of myself. I got most of the frame built with these little beauties right here before i got so annoyed by the pain they were causing my hands!!! Why on earth did I even bother wi...

Shame on you BC Ferries!

I would do anything possible to help my kids! And I mean ANYTHING! So when someone does something to make me worry about my kids, they are gonna hear about it from me. Last night was one of those nights! Seth took a trip to California/Utah/Idaho for a few weeks so he could be there for the July 4th celebrations. He has a lot of friends down there from school, so we are never very worried when he goes(except when we hear about the earthquakes in California). For some reason he would love to just move there...Haha. Whenever he goes back to BC though, he has to travel through Vancouver. I always worry about him when he is traveling in Vancouver alone. What makes it worse is when he is travelling at night. Last night was one of the worst trips yet. Just so you know how his day started, he was staying in Idaho, so it was a 3 hour drive to Utah for his flight. He left from Salt Lake City at 1:35 pm and since this was an international flight he had to be there extra early. 2 hours ear...
