Drop-in on the Way Home from the Cottage

Monday, May 22 2023

 

Samuel and Kirk were home when we arrived.  David and Karine were off playing tennis.  Barbara brought cracker jacks for the boys, which they enjoyed, but the “prizes” were stickers.  Sam told us about the upcoming Chelsea baseball games.

 

Grant picked a whole bunch of dandelions, which he fed to the bunnies.  The chickens liked them too.

 

David and Karine returned with groceries, and the boys volunteered to go next door to get some lettuce from the garden.

 

It was nice seeing the family and getting caught up.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PD Day at 9 Lambert

Friday, May 5 2023

 

Samuel and David spent their PD day with Grandpa, Barbara & Grant.  The day began with a discussion about our upcoming Churchill trip followed by a slide show of Barbara’s time in Churchill in 1952/53.

 

Then Uncle Grant had a game of 21 Aces with the boys.  This is a game that Grant created himself and refined over the years.

 

It was scooter time with a trip to the park.  The boys enjoyed playing on the swings and play structures, which they had to themselves.

 

After a bbq lunch on the deck, we all headed out to Beachconers for ice cream followed by a nature walk on the ridge at Mud Lake.  Migrating birds were scare, but the boys enjoyed the animals they found there.

 

Everyone enjoyed their day!
