Recap of February

We started the month in Niagara Falls with my parents.  It was so much fun.  None of us had ever seen the falls in the winter, and they were breathtaking.  We also spent a bunch of inside time at a water park, which we all thoroughly enjoyed.

As you can imagine, the kids were more than exhausted after all that fun.  They both fell asleep within five minutes of starting to drive back home.

 

John & I went to Canoe, called "the best restaurant in Toronto," while they were here.  The food was delish, the view was amazing, and the company was excellent.

After grocery shopping one day, Benjamin helped empty the clementines!

John attended our church's men's retreat one weekend, so all us moms & kids had our annual sleepover.  We totaled 4 moms and 7 kids this year, and all of us went to play in the snow the next morning.  We made quite the sight as we walked to the park!

Another walk in the snow :)

The kids moved from pattern block cooking to pompom cooking.  They now have a Pompom Cafe Menu and play this every single day.

Benjamin had no fear feeding camels, llamas, bighorn sheep and donkeys.

Last but not least, the annual Yorkville Ice Festival.  It has been such a treat to be just 3 blocks away from this fun winter event.  This year's theme - Egypt.
