Last week, we were so blessed to have two sets of couples - good friends - come visit for a bit, on different days! We were so thankful that they were both able to stop by, or drive that extra few hours so that we could see them :) First we had Jared and Breanne...
The evening they came, after supper, we went seadooing...well at first they had a bunch of trouble getting the seadoo going, so Breanne and I watched from the shore and had a great visit...while the guys paddled to shore. :) So great to catch up.
Jared and Breanne dashing off - after finally getting the machine going. :)
James and I, with a goofy grin off for a spin.
We stayed up late talking...Breanne holding our little girl. Pretty soon, they'll have their own little baby - on a few more months!
We went to the Windmill for breakfast one morning, and then headed off to Niagara Falls, the gorge and a little drive through tour of Niagara-on-the-lake.
A picnic, before starting our hike down the gorge.
Jared the photographer taking lots of pictures - as you saw with the previous post, I put a bunch of photos up that he took for us while we were all together. :)
Me - beside the not so still waters - cooling off my feet from the hike.
James and his girl laying down on the rock.
I'm really thankful for this sling - it's been great thus far.
You can see it a bit, but there is the whirpool jet boat in the middle which we watch go back and forth along the river, soaking many people.
Katelyn with her little hat on.
Daddy - with his daughter. So that's the first couple...and then a few hours after Jared and Breanne left, David and Jordan, and their two little boys arrived. They didn't get to stay quite as long, but we had a great time with them - only wished they lived closer.
Their little boy Alan, chewing on an empty cob on corn.
Playing a game that night that they taught us.
Their 10 wk. old little boy Ayden and our little 6 wk old Katelyn. Kate was a bit scared for some reason - thus the tears. :)
Saying goodbye at the Windmill with us and the children.
Jordan and I - God has given me so many wonderful friends! I never thought I'd see this much of family and friends this year...so special. And in two days, James, Katelyn and I are off to Alberta!! :) I can't wait for my family to see Katelyn - how special that will be.
Maybe she'll play piano one day - with her fingers outstretched... :)
Julia came over one afternoon to help me babysit Katelyn. She pushed her on the swing, and we colored together, and made cookies. She is such a fun little girl with an inquisitve mind.
I take Katelyn with me to work at the Windmill for a few hours every week. :) She sits in her carseat while I unpack things beside her, or lays on the counter, in the sling on me, etc. She gets lots of visitors, from customers and aunts/uncles to different members of the staff checking in on her. She is well loved and well looked after.
We three went along with Mark, Rob and William to sing up north a few weeks ago up near Collingwood - this is of us traveling back. We had such fun traveling together, and Katelyn and I survived just fine being the only girls.
