Victoria Day Weekend

Long weekends always seem to be so jam packed with so much fun. Like the Victoria Day long weekend. It was a busy one!

We started the weekend off with Joshua's first ever soccer game and he had so much fun! He makes the cutest little Timbit I've ever seen. He was so excited to get dressed in his soccer uniform with his big soccer socks. Rounding up volunteers to coach was a bit of a fiasco at the beginning of the season so I thought I would help out and as Chris puts it, he was "volun-told" to coach.

Watching his big brother play soccer (this lasted all of about 5 seconds)

After soccer, we were off to Chris' family's farm for another adventure. Grayson absolutely loves the farm...everything about it from the big tractors to following anyone who looks like they might be doing something that could need the help of an almost 2 year old. He just walks around like he owns the place. Joshua also loves the farm, but he would prefer to run around in the fields and see the chicks and baby turkeys.

Like father like son

Off in search of the next adventure

While at the farm, Joshua got to stay up super late and help dig holes for fireworks. When he decided he was done helping, he took off to play with glow sticks and sparklers and then settled in to watch the explosion of colours. He was impressed and loved hearing him giggle and say "that's a loud bang!"

On Sunday, we went to my parents' for dinner and tried to enjoy a nice visit. Grayson can be rather strong willed so when he has his mind made up (like he wants his bed and he wants it now), there is no changing it. The distraction technique was used for the greater portion of our visit.

And our Monday was spent outside enjoying the beautiful weather.
