Another week ends with Swimming and the Park

I stole this Pic from MARPAC...lol
Shawn working on his gun...pretty much his third child.

Our week was pretty normal.
Other then I had Phaedra Babysitting this week as my reg. sitter was in ON for a week... the kids love her, but then I dont think you can meet her and not love her.

















So we had a pretty busy Saturday morning.
Kids had swimming at Juan de Fuca and then we headed out to a Park in Esquimalt to hang with some fellow Alg Families.
We picked up a lunch for McDonald's and headed for the park...finding it was easy finding a parking spot not so much.
Anyways it was a fun day but I got WAY too much sun and now have the burn to prove it...




So I have noticed that my kids are wearing the same outfits as last week...well Cameron has diffrent shorts on...

My Aunt sent me photos...so did Shawn.

First Shawn sent me a few pic's
Here he is enjoying his first Pukadog

Hunama Bay on the SE side of Oahu. It's a big snorkeling spot.

Now from my Aunt.

First me and Kittens
I would say this is about 1981-83 not sure, I just know its not 1980 as the hair cut is wrong, as you will see from the next pic.
Now I have no idea how I got inside with 4 kittens..as Gran rairly ever let kittens in the house.
My guess is an Aunt helped smuggle them in...and set up the photo shoot.

Lastly until she sends me more...
My Gran, my Aunt Mary and I
1980
