Playtime Cut Short

Beautiful day today and we made the best of it. In the morning I took her on a tricycle ride and in the afternoon we all went to the play park. Pretty crowded there, but by shortly after 5 everyone was fleeing for their lives.

Off in the distance storm clouds were brewing, and then all of a sudden the winds through a tantrum that put Akemi to shame. Even the trees tried running away. I heard a crack and thought it was thunder, but it was the trunk of a large tree. Snapped like a fresh carrot. Silvina saw three trees go down. That called an end to playtime at the park.

More Pictures from Capital City

My last BLOG got cut short and some critics were not happy with the picture. I thought there was a good feel to the picture. Anyway, here are some more pictures from the Capital City (or there about).

This first one was taken by the statue of Samuel De Champlain behind the National Art Gallery.

Here are some pictures inside of the Gallery and eating sushi outside of the Gallery.



We also went to history Merrickville to visit my friend Marg and her family.
The two girls were the best babysitters ever!

Here are some action shots.

Our last stop was to visit my friend Brent and his family. Tom also come over too. Hmmm. I don't know if I like the way she's looking at Joel...

Trip to Capital City

Easter weekend we took a road trip to Ottawa to escape our bathroom renovations and to meet up with some old friends. I wasn't looking forward to the drive, but it wasn't bad - we all held up better than expected.
