Celebrating Summer

Today is the 1st day of summer - yay!  Of course in Houston it has felt like summer for several months, but at least now its officially the heat season ;)

We've had some beautiful days up here in Toronto - getting depressed that we are actually having to return to that brutal heat in Houston.....oh how I don't miss that heat!  Well to celebrate the first official day of summer today, we took a nice walk to a park that is down the street from Grandma's house and let Brookie play on the playground.  To say she had a blast was an understatement - she was having so much fun sliding on all the slides, swinging, climbing, hanging on bars and just running around.  She was so funny - everytime she would do something new, she would turn around and yell "Mommy....look at meeeee!!!! Cheeeeeese!!!!"  Of course when it was time to go she threw an epic 2 year old temper tantrum....what fun!  What can I say...being 2 is a tough job.  Should have taken some pics of her during her meltdown just to make the outing complete ;)

Anyway....here is Brookie's fun playground trip in pictures.....I'm tired just looking at them!


This is the funniest thing - Brooklynn is OBSESSED with the grass here in Toronto.  The first day she went with Grandma for a walk, she said as soon as they got to the sidewalk, she bent down and kept touching the grass and kept saying how soft it was...lol.  She loves to just lay down and roll around on it...too funny!  At least here she doesn't have to worry about all those nasty fire ants biting her :)
And this is how Cannon felt after the trip to the park - I guess watching his big sister doing all that running around tired him out too!
