All Before Lunch ...

August 8, 2015

The kids gathered around the kitchen table early in the morning ...

they were so happy to see each other ...

Time to get breakfast cooked ...

Nathan's homemade moose sausages ... and tray of fruit ...

and a pile of waffles on the griddle ...

I believe one of the kids said ..."funny faces" for this picture ...

After everyone was fed up ...

it was time to get the motorized toys out ...

Nathan had brought his rebuilt dirt bike ...

he received this one for Christmas at around 13 years old ...

Ian was excited to get on his racing quad ...

it's been 2 years since he has taken it for a ride ...

James and Ella were taking turns ...

giving Nixon a ride on the little quads ...

they were extra careful with him ... driving very slowly ...

Nixon loved going for the rides ...

Ella took Nixon for a few more rides ...

so James could go on his dirt bike with the other three guys ...

they were heading out for a big ride ...

It was pool time for Ella and Nixon after riding the quad ...

Daigen and grandpa jumped in to join them ...

I remembered that we had a water activity play centre ...

thought I would drag it out for Nixon ...

all the other children had fun playing with it when they were younger ...

Daigen and Craig were checking it out ...

trying to put it together ...

Ian and grandpa came to help them out ...

James was hanging out with Nathan in the pool for a while ...

then he decided to come out and see what was going on ...

It took a lot of extra hands to put this water play centre together ...

I just stood back a smiled ...

was awesome watching all of them ...

All finished ... even put up the umbrella ... the kids had a lot of fun with it ...

The weather was absolutely gorgeous ... blue skies and hot ...

the whole gang decided to go for a swim before lunch ...

it was time for the whirlpool affect ...

everyone running around the pool in one direction ...

to get the current going ...

then once it was swirling ...

they could just hang back and float along ...

Just too much fun ... !!!
