Daddy's last day of holidays

Monday was Mike's last day of holidays and so we had one more outing. We went to a place called Kids Sports in Mississauga. It was a lot of fun. Samara was a little young for most of it but they did have a room with ride on toys and things for her age. She had the most fun watching Victoria and Austin and just walking around exploring the place. Here is a picture of part of the huge structure - tunnels, rope ladders, slides, balls, etc.

Fun slides that landed in a pile of balls:






The funny thing that happened was Victoria and Austin climbed and climbed and at one point they had to go through a "river" of balls at the top. They both jumped in but as it turned out, they were too short to climb out so they were stuck. Victoria was able to boost Austin out but then she couldn't get out herself. So here's how they got out:



That's right, Mike had to climb up rope ladders and through tunnels built for kids to rescue his daughter. It was too funny!

Here's Samara in the little play area:



It was lots of fun but now reality has hit, Daddy is back to work and we're starting to get ready for back to school. Victoria will be full time in school as a grade one student and Austin (hopefully) will be in JK two mornings a week (still working out some of the details). Victoria has grown so much this summer that back to school shopping may turn out to be kind of expensive. She has outgrown everything including her regular running shoes and the extra pair of shoes she'll need for indoor use at school. Wal-Mart, here we come!
