it's hot outside!

We've had a very warm week here in the GTA...a heat wave with record breaking high temperatures.  Which means it's a very good time to own a pool.



Kyle and Jillian have been enjoying their second week of day camp.  Kyle has participated in some very cool activities...he's been mountain biking, zip lining, tree climbing and kayaking among other things.  Jillian has also been doing lots of fun things including canoeing and visiting a castle (she left a note for the mystical friendly dragon that lives there and even received a letter in return...a very polite dragon indeed).  We've had many crafts coming home from Jillian.  This macaroni dinosaur is my favourite...I love that no matter how far we've come technologically in this world, macaroni and glue are still the quintessential camp craft!  And you'll notice my girly-girl manages to pretty up any artwork she creates with hearts and butterflies...even a dinosaur skeleton.
In the evenings we've been making use of the pool to cool down.  We have lots of great neighbours who have been joining us for pool fun and bbq'ing.  The kids love seeing their school friends regularly throughout the summer (having a pool in the backyard is great for your social life!).
