I suspect I post the same blog every year about our trip to Toronto. It's become a family tradition full of family traditions: piles of fun in the pool, great barbecues, cold beer, motorbike rides with Grampie, cake, celebrations, too much food, awful traffic and going to view the new house that Paul and Janice will be moving to. This year didn't disappoint on any front and to top off all the festivities - I can scarcely recall the kids (any of the four) fighting.
We all had a wonderful trip/visit and next year we will be staying in their gorgeous, spacious Hamilton home right on the tremendous Lake Ontario. Lucky us. We can hardly wait.
Our last napper.
The girls and I trying to make the most of the traffic jam on the old 401.
How did this happen so fast? Our babies have all abandoned their water wings.
Wet cuddles with Grampie.
The Champion ladies. I think I have taken this same shot for a few years now.
Kate giving us an underwater thumbs up.
And the kid toss begins. Lydia up.
Looks like Elliott got some good air.
Kate swimming.
Tossing the tiny-s.
Kate's turn on the back of Grampie's spider.

Our soldiers.
Cheers!

Catching some final rays.
And Elliott's beat again.
Back to the airport - so plug in the children.
The future has arrived.
On to July and to hosting my family. Mom and Dad have arrived to much fanfare. It's been a busy and fun couple of days. I think the grandparents have finally run out of gifts to present to the kids so we'll see if their popularity remains as high.
Party on Garths! aj
