Wet Weekend

This weekend was the last weekend of the Tulip Festival, so we decided to get out and take in the tulips. Of course, Saturday morning was the best opportunity for us, and therefore it poured rain at that time. But we went all the same. The kids were all set in their rain suits, so the rain didn't bother them one bit. (And I can't tell you how many people commented to us that they wished they had suits like that too.) DoT and I don't have raincoats, so we got plenty wet. (I actually went out and bought a raincoat since this happened.)

Here are a few pics... (it's funny that the pictures don't show how hard it was raining)

Mmmm.. popcorn. It didn't get too soggy.

After checking out the tulips, we went to the small midway just next door. The kids had spotted it on the way in, and I don't think there was any way we were going to get out of there without a trip to the merry-go-round.

All the kids enjoyed the little train ride...

But only A was brave enough for the merry-go-round...

Have a great week!

LOVE that last picture! Her expression is so genuine... As for soggy popcorn? We'll have none of that! :-)

I was just commenting to Brian this evening that it's been forever since we've seen you... Thank goodness for these updates! (And yes, we still live in Ottawa, a short drive from your house. :-))
