Summer Recap

We had a great summer full of fun and adventure. We moved into our new house in early July and spent just enough time there to get settled before we made our first trip back to Nova Scotia since we left last year.

Our new home is great! We particularly love the pool and large, grassy back yard. The boys have lots of room to run and play, and we all enjoyed swimming when the weather was warm enough. William and Callum are particularly fond of the water. Callum loves to play 'Hen, Rooster, Chicken, Duck' and William is always busy trying to learn to swim. Jacky prefers to paddle around a bit in his 'floaty seat (for lack of a better term) and then direct all of our activities from the side of the pool the rest of the time.

We spent almost 2 weeks at the farm this year. The weather was warm and sunny, and we enjoyed many hours sitting outside while the boys played in their splash pool and on the lawn. The last few days of our trip were not the best, as Jack and Callum both came down with Roseola, but that is a distant memory now. Overall, our time in Nova Scotia was absolutely wonderful. I've even almost forgotten about the first week of rain!

Here are a few photos of our summertime adventures. I would love to write more, but then I would miss out on my 'nap time'!

That is a great shot of the boys in the car. They look so content and the trees in the background are beautiful with the Fall colours.
