The Canada Day long weekend gave us a few wonderfully hot hot true summer days. While we normally make our way to the Alberta Legislative Grounds to enjoy the wading pools and everything Canada, this year with the heat, we felt we would stay closer to home and away from too many crowds. So we spent the day at the Callingwood Spray Park. We brought our beach umbrella, our picnic lunch and of course our water guns! Owen and Brandon had a blast and it was wonderful when Owen and Brandon asked if they could share their water guns with some of the children there — makes you feel good about your parenting!
The heat continued for a few more days, allowing us to pull out our inflatable pool and giving the boys a chance to play on the deck.
They spent hours in the pool, splashing, watering my flowers, filling their buckets and then dumping them.
These are the things I most look forward to when summer comes!
