Treat visits!

We knew from their blog that Ali was going to Saskatchewan through Toronto, but when we were able to arrange a lunch together at the Eaton Centre, we were pretty excited.

We took the subway down for a treat for the kids...Hannah sure felt proud to stand!






Then had a somewhat disappointing lunch at Mr. Greenjeans. Ali & Jason both had fond memories of their childhood visits to Toronto and lunches at Mr. Greenjeans. They've fixed it all up in there, but it's somehow lost it's charm and it's kid-friendliness. Plus the staff were all pretty grouchy. But the company was great, and you can never go wrong with ice cream!



We walked around the Eaton Centre a bit then said our good-byes.








We got home just in time for a call from John who was an hour away and got to have treat visit number 2! For some reason, I have no pictures from that visit, but we had dinner together and then lots of sports with the kids in the backyard. Thanks for coming, John!

It sure feels like summer. Hannah's friend around the corner is back from a long vacation so they got to catch up and Jack's still over at his friend's house (2 doors down!) for a swim. This is how I remember summers...lots of playing outside with friends until what felt like the wee hours but was really only close to 9:00pm!

I love the pics on the subway. You'd think the kids lived in the big city. They look as if they had a great time!
