Could Everyone Stand Together?











Our last day. What a sad day. Playing on the swingset one more time with Max, William and Lily. The things we have learned. We have moves for gymnastics this fall....the moves of a five year old because Haley was determined that anything Max and William could do...she could do too. She did acknowledge that Lily was bigger and could things she was unable to do....but oh no not the twins....Their skills were her skills to master. We can still source most of her "interesting" language and motor skills to Max and William. Some of our favourite things are preceded with a "Max/William does that". We sure miss everyone. See you soon again.

Basketball with Oma


Riding Bikes with Opa




Opa and his electric bike. Some special rides for Haley and Opa.

The farmers




So one of the highlights of our stay in Ontario was the fresh food. Oma and Opa have an absolutely magical backyard. When we first arrived we were outside every morning to pick strawberries and asparagus. Then we moved on to raspberries, currents, gooseberries. peas and zucchinis. The pictures are of our potato harvest. Haley loved helping every step of the way.
