Great Uncle Rick’s Birthday Dinner


October 20, 2013

 
The Chelsea boys joined us to celebrate Great Uncle Rick’s 65th birthday. We had a fun time together at Le Resto in Old Chelsea http://www.boucaneriechelseasmokehouse.com/leresto/index_en.html


David SMILED in his happy way.

 
Rick enjoyed his fish and chips and beer and special dessert. Samuel provided candle blowing assistance. Then he opened a chocolate treat. And helped Rick open a gift bag.






A fresh walk in the dark to the Chelsea Dam completed our family evening together.

Birthday at the Farm

October 14, 2013

Our little boy, David, was one today. He happily celebrated with Samuel, Fenna and Jaspar at Saunders Farm.

Pumpkins were a hit.




A tractor-pulled wagon ride was a favourite of Sam's. David joined in the fun too.












Next Sam wanted to feed some farm animals. Soon his little brother got into the action.







It was super to have Henk, Jodie, Fenna and Jasper join us. As the older children watched a puppet show, birthday boy tried some snacks.





Then it was time for all the kids to climb aboard a wooden ship.



Next came the BIG slide. Everyone got in the action here.


At his birthday lunch, the birthday boy smiled a lot! Fenna and Sam decorated some ice cream cone brownies. The apple cake was very yummy!





Sam and Papa blasted some corn cobs at a pumpkin target.



In the afternoon the older kids played, jumped, explored... with Uncle Grant and David watched and smiled. He did show off his walking skills. His walking is a bit tippy but, if he falls, he quickly pulls himself up and keeps moving. He has lots of energy - he entertained himself all day without a nap.






It was a happy birthday for everyone.
