Ontario Place 2009

Yesterday the kids and I headed out to Ontario Place with Alicia, Reuben and Jonah. We had been planning to do this for a while, but our lovely rainy summer kept interfering with our plans. We finally decided to just go and take the weather as it came, and what do you know, we had a great day! It sprinkled a few times, and we thought we might get soaked, but then the sun would come out again...
The last time we went to OP was 4 years ago, Natalie didn't even come with us, as she was just a baby. It was fun then, and the older kids still remembered and talked about it. So I cashed in some Airmiles for tickets, thinking we would go when Art was up North last week. Too bad he couldn't come with us, but it was still fun. It's great for the kids to spend time with their cousins, Reuben was especially glad to hang out with Tim for the day...
On to the pictures.....
I took lots of them. I'll try to not post too many (sorry, Barbara) but we both have such photogenic kids :-)

Excited to be here, and ready to start playing!

How do I steer this thing???
Silly faces.

Natalie was surprisingly good at this!

We met Elmo, Cookie Monster and Abby.
Natalie loved the splash pad
Giant slide...
Free Fall! Natalie was really mad that she couldn't go on this one.
Reuben on an ATV.
We ended up staying at the park til closing at 8:00. It was a late night, and a long day, but definitely worth it! The girls are already asking if we can do it again next year... anyone else want to come along?

Great pictures, even thought my kids aren't in them.
They came up on our computer quite quickly this time. No need to apologize.
