I AM BACK

First I apologize for being so late in posting but it has been a hectic few weeks.  Charlie and Monty along with Jodie, MariLou and Sam and Stacey and Andrew were visiting as well as Joanne, Mitch and Susan also were up but staying on Axe.  And I must say that even with all those extra helping hands it was still very exhausting trying to keep up with everything.  But I survived.
What fun we had with Charlie and Monty!!  the last time we saw them in person they were just 6 weeks old.  Now they are 10 1/2 months old and very very active.
Jodie and Stacie got a kayak ride in and left the kids with the grandparents - all is well.  We don't have a bathtub so we improvised and got a large tote and filled it with water in the downstairs shower - add a small stool and voila!!  The perfect place for baby baths and they loved it!!  They could stand up and turn around - it was perfect.
The next picture is of the boys trying to unpack their packed suitcase - who needs toys?  And you can see what the rest of my house looked like - a little messy - but who cared.
I had to put a picture of a Cheeze Wheels pizza I had while I was in Windsor - delicious !!  Then the picture of the back up at the Makinac Bridge - took me 1 1/2 hours to get across - ughhh.
The boys spent a few hours at Limberlost Lodge getting some surfing lessons in.  Thanks Ute for letting them come over to play on your beautiful beach - they enjoyed it so much as did we.
Then the final picture is of the boys on our boat on our lake - all safe in their little life jackets.  They loved it.
They are on their way to England as I type this to spend two weeks with Dave's family in Droitwich then finally home to Daddy waiting in Abu Dhabi.
I miss them already...
