Good friends on Manley Road

 We had the fortune of getting together with our friends the Hayes, Hauenstein, and Gibbs at the Rasmus Family's house on Manley road this summer. We always have such a nice time when we are together. Here are some photos of the day. They mostly include the kids, and I unfortunately don't have any photos of our gracious hostess Kay. I mean to rectify this in the future!


Mia and Sawyer playing around. The funny thing is Lola grabbed on to his shirt first, then started crying.



The lovely Rita and Mia!




Bert!Allison and David's new lab puppy.

Fourth of July, Canadian Style....Grand Bend Ontario

We had the most delightful Fourth of July holiday in Canada. Our friends Scott and Sarah Barker invited us to the family cottage for the weekend. The cottage pictured above was so quaint and comfortable. And, it was a short walk to the water.
 
 We witnessed the most gorgeous sunsets every night.



 Sawyer Bug was a ham the whole time and kept us entertained. He also learned how to walk while there!


 These are a few pictures of the dock area where we had some delicious fresh fish that was out of this world.

 The water was really nice and warm so we got in some swim time.



Practicing his walking skills. He and Nala would patrol the porch when people passed by.
 Snuggling with daddy

We bought him these great shoes at one of the downtown shops. There were many great places 
to shop and Sawyer came home with a shirt, a Canadian stuffed beaver, and the classic Sweater Hockey Book.  He cleaned up! We also passed the time playing games...There is a girls vs boys Trivial Pursuit game that I believe will go on contested forever. Maybe we will get a rematch again next year.

Sawyer is One!!!

Please join us in viewing the photos from Sawyer's First Mustache Bash!
We had chocolate mustaches to munch on.....

and cupcakes galore....


Good friends to spend time with....






And presents a plenty!



We had swim time and bouncy time

Sawyer did not get into the cupcake like we all hoped. But, he did at least get a little messy

Here are some of the guests sporting their staches...I apologize but I did not get a photo of everyone




Little Owen's first stache!







Thanks so much for sharing the day with us!
