Michael's 9th Birthday
Summer fun with friends
Dairy Farm tour
I took the younger four children and my friend kept the older four (who were too cool for the tour).
Andrew thought it was very sad that they take the male calves away from their mothers immediately.
When we came home the kids built an elaborate milking system. Guess they were paying attention.
Niagara Falls
For Michael's birthday he wanted to go to a foreign country. We talked him out of Dubai and convinced him that Canada was foreign enough ( and a half a day's drive).
At the base of the horseshoe falls
We stayed at Great Wolf Lodge so it was double the fun.
Our view at dinner.
The boat into the falls was a highlight for everyone except Andrew. He stayed inside the entire time.
Walking the rapids.
The children had enough pictures for one day.
Time to re-energize at the water park.
Hot tubbin!
Lazy River
With a waterproof case I was able to get some good pictures and videos on the rides.
The children all participated in summer camp at the Carnegie Museum. Andrew only went half day so we spent time on the grounds in the afternoons. Here he is with "Dippy" the Diplodocus.
End of summer trip to Living Treasures.
Diving board fun
First day of school
