Ethan and I spent our summer vacation up North visiting family. Daddy couldn't take any time off, but that didn't stop us from having a lot of fun!
Friday we spent the day with Papa Lessard. We drove around Dayton and picked apples from little spots that my Dad used to take me when I was a little girl. It was a great trip down memory lane!
After a busy afternoon with Papa, we stopped to see Uncle Rick at work while we waited for Auntie Nancy to get home from work. While we waited Uncle Rick took Ethan for a ride on the fork lift and let him sit on the tractor.
Later we had a little visit with Auntie Nancy before heading back to lind River for the night.
Saturday morning we had an early visit with Meme. We went to two parks and had a nice visit at her apartment. She gave Ethan lots of books and some treats from New Brunswick!
After our visit with Meme we headed back to Iron Bridge. Auntie Nancy, Tristin and Bryce brought us our to Cedar Rail Ranch to introduce Ethan to the horses. We tried really hard to get him up on the horse with Tristin but he just wasn't ready for it. He did get a kick out of all the horse poo every where and began yelling "I love poop!" What a turkey!
Singing "I love poop!"

Huh?
After an afternoon at the ranch we went to Aunt Tania's for a home cooked meal.
Ethan and Bryce were pretending to ride the four-wheeler.
Then Tristin brought Ethan for a real ride!
It was such a beautiful day!
After our big dinner we went back to Auntie Nancy's brother-in-laws kids: Wyatt (2) and the twins Jeremy and Jasper (4 mos). Ethan had a blast playing with Wyatt!
Sunday we were so exhausted that we just relaxed and watched movies all day!
On Monday we were back out and about, starting with poutines from The Spud Buggy!
After a heavy lunch Ethan helped Grandpa plant a couple of trees.
Of course, he had to be silly in between tree planting!
After a busy day outside we headed back to Iron Bridge for some good old fashion Delmar's chicken and jojos for supper at Auntie Nancy's. Mmmmmm
Tuesday was our last full day in Blind River and luckily, a nice hot sunny day. We took this opportunity to head out on Grandpa and Grandma's new boat! Ethan was so excited for his first boat ride.
We found a nice little beach and brought Ethan for his first real swim - the water was freezing so we didn't stay in long. He was more interested in fishing with Grandpa, another first!
After a tough day of swimming and fishing we had a picnic.
Time to call it a day. Grandma and Ethan on the boat.
We had a great trip. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa for being such gracious hosts!
Glad to be back home with Daddy!
Love, Tiffany and Ethan
