The rest of the trip...




After the park we ended up where we always end up in Moose Jaw..
At the Chocolate Moose
They make a gelato that is to die for...
This is Jeremy enjoying his Cookies and Cream...




After that we went on Captain Jacks River Boat Tour.
We have done this every year since Jeremy was born...
and it is kind of exspensive,
but the kid loves it...




We weren't thinking though...
We did the evening tour,
and it is about an hour....
right at Gracie's normal bedtime..
and she had missed her nap that day...
so she was already tired..
so I had to spend the whole trip convincing her not to cry...
This picture was her one rare smile the whole hour...




Jeremy as usual...loved the trip..
Plus he got to sit up with Captain Jack..
who had lots of boys of his own...
so he was pretty impressed...




Captain Jack even let him sit at the steering wheel
when we were at the dock..
but we had to pry him away screaming so that
Captain Jack could drive the boat..LOL!







This is Jeremy with his umbrella...



Afterwards we went to a cook shack on the side of the river...
This is poor Gracie...exhausted..
enough beach for her for one day.



Jeremy on the other hand ran like a wild man...
This is a bunny he found, It even let him pet it...
and then he wanted to chase it
so bunny ran away...

Jeremy also decided to make this the first time ever
to tell me he had to go potty....
GREAT...no where near a bathroom...
He was desperate for about ten minutes..
and then of course he went..
but what can you do..

To Blog...or Not to Blog...

It has finally happened...
After three years of posting lots and lots of pics..
I am going to have to either delete old posts
or start paying if I want to keep using blogger...
I should just explain that when you put pics on blogger
they are automatically stored on
picassa web albums.
They give you a lot of space, but I post LOTS of pics
and it has taken three years to fill my space.
I am at an impasse and really don't know what to do..
I don't really want to delete old posts...
This is my families journal,
and it would be fun for the kids to look back on..
We kind of would like to keep blogging,
We do it for our extended family,
who aren't able to be with the kids,
and see what they look like day to day...
My only other option is to pay 20 dollars a year..
(forever)
What do you think?
What should I do?

Impromptu Trip...

Yesterday Kendal and I did something we haven't done in a while...
We were headed out to a lake...
and I said, "I feel like going to Moose Jaw"
Kendal..."Let's GO!"
and so instead of the lake...
We ended up here!




We have always loved visiting Moosejaw..
every time we go, we find new little things to love about it.
We were actually going to go the the Burrowing Owls Interpretive Center
But it was 1pm, so we decided to go to Cresent Park
(Where we have never been)
Find a spray pad
and have our lunch...




What we found...
Was this really cool Water pad/Toddler pool
and an amazing jewel of a park
We never knew exsisted!
We stayed all day!




Kendal and Jeremy had a blast..
(Translation-Jeremy ran and ran and ran and ran
and wore my hubby out...)
Gracie and I followed taking pictures..



I even took Gracie in the toddler pool,
which being adventure girl...
she thought was a blast...




After we went for a walk along the stream...
found a very cool ampitheater,
and a little waterfall...
It was worth visiting...we will be back!

Canada Day...


Canada Day was pronounced a success by my two year old son...
who informed me tonight during prayer time
that his favorite parts were running and running and running,

and that he likes his spiderman...
(It was a five dollar balloon,
but you would think we gave him the world...)




He also informed me that he liked his fries,
and the music was good too...LOL
Gracie definately seems to enjoy the blues..



The entire time we were listening, she was dancing in her seat...
We left around four and went to Dessart for ice cream...
(Also a success with the younger set...)
However this year we skipped the fire works,
as Kendal had to work tonight...
I didn't think I could manage two tired, ex
cited kids on my own
in a crowded park....






To all my fellow Canadians,
Hope you had a great day!

Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canadians...
Have a great day!
See you tomorrow!

and we haven't seen any of these people in a while
so it was kind of cool to see the pictures...

Safari Jeff and Shannon...

Safari Jeff and Shannon came to one of our malls
recently and we brought the kids to check out their show...
I don't think that Jeremy believed they were real,
till he touched them...
