This spring break we headed out east to visit Giles' parents in Toronto and we were all quite thoroughly spoiled! Once again, thank you so much for all you did for us Dave and Carol!

We enjoyed having a park very close by and Giles and Xander had a great time meeting a new friend and playing together there!

We headed down to Niagara Falls for a night and stayed at a hotel attached to a very large water park which was fun for all ages!!! Xander barely hit the bottom before he was up and running to get back to the top!
Avery couldn't do this particular slide but she was still an enthusiastic cheerleader for her dad and big brother.
Willow and Grandma enjoying their time together while the rest of us ran all over the place!
Xander having a rare moment of calm. Plus I think he was getting a little chilled and this area had some warm jet streams. Xander got a little possessive of the warm water here!
Avery loved this little slide....she's probably sitting there waiting to see who would all be watching her go! She's a little bit of a showboat at times!
This blue slide was the overall favorite that everyone could do on their own. Avery would catch a little air at the bottom and slide right to the end of the mat on her bum before running as fast as her adorably short legs could get her to the top again!
I'm going to go out on a limb here but i'm pretty sure this would be Avery taking a very patient Grandma for a walk!
Grandpa and Xander watching the boats at the falls!
Oh look! a family picture taken in front of Niagara Falls!!!! I don't think thats ever happened before! We do like to be original!
We brought Xander's bike along since it can be easily taken apart and packed! Xander loved having it and we appreciated him being able to keep up a little easier since his sisters are taking over the stroller and wrap methods of transport! See how he's leaning into the turn!!! He was loving the open pathways here.
I think I have this exact picture of all three of our kids!
For Xander the goggles are a must! Some of you may have also seen him run laps around the sanctuary during church with his helmut and goggles on!

Believe it or not this is Xander and Avery playing hide-and-seek! Trying to prolong finding them is the hardest part of the game sometimes!

This is classic Avery pouting! Standing really straight with a little stomp of the foot and looking down at the ground.....and then looking to see who's watching her out of the corner of her eye!
We tried one of Avery's swimmer diapers on Willow and it was not a great fit...we got something a little more appropriate for her size although Willow didn't really go in the water at all...it was a little cold for her liking!
Three kids ready to go swimming but waiting for their parents to get their act together!
