I wasn’t there. Believe it or not it was too hot for Hailey. This was a fun day put on by the city of Brossard. All sorts of physical activities and food preparing along with a show held by none other than Francois, one of Vanessa’s teachers. She LOVED it.

Children’s museum in Ottawa
This museum is awesome!!! We met up with Gen and her girls for a fun filled afternoon. Imagine a whole museum of imaginative play. Very hands on!
Here Vanessa is putting on a play. There were costumes backstage available to the kids.
This was Vanessas’s favourite part. It’s a shipyard scenario where the kids worked together to haul cargo off and on the ship with the crane. It was super cool. Because of the windows I didn’t get any good pictures.
Vanessa is directing the crane operator to haul the cargo up after hooking it on. Later she even managed to work the crane.
If anyone wants to go, I’ll make that trip any day!

Camping Just the Girls
I took both girls overnight to Voyageur Provincial park this year by myself. We met up with friends and didn’t do any actual cooking so It would be manageable.We had a good time but that night Vanessa wanted to go home. Since we were all set up, I insisted we stay the night. She woke up bright and early and we packed up right away while Hailey snoozed.
During the day we had a picnic and played in the water at the beach. Sorry no pictures. In the evening we had a campfire complete with marshmallows and songs.

La Minerve August 2010
As usual we had lots of fun at LaMinerve. This year the kids outnumbered the adults. We had really nice weather. Hailey loved it. She slept in the swing and her tent and never acted cold. Vanessa loved hanging out with the other kids this year. I always remember this year as the one Vanessa got into the toothpaste twice. Once all over the tent…
Below Vanessa is making a new friend with Theo and Kieran is getting in on the fun.
Vanessa and Daddy are “napping”. Well at least Daddy got a nap in. On the way home he went into a full blown head cold.
