He is smiling now, but just mention school and he gets mad. |
So it's over, the summer is done. And I feel like I got nothing done at all. Really I had such plans. They all fell through. The one thing I did get to do was spend time with Hubby and Pork Chop, so you cannot really complain.
Thought I would post some pictures to show you the fun we had. We did a few day trips, because everything cost so much, we tried to just pic a few big ones. So here are some fun pictures.
And just so you know I hate taking pictures, a lot. I never like how I look. So just pretend I am a super hot, it will make looking at these a little easier.
So we went to the Zoo with my Aunt, she is awesome, she knows all the short cuts and she even will get down and crawl around with Pork Chop. Although she wouldn't do this, I don't know why I did.
|
Yeah, so basically it is a ropes course. And that means heights, I hate heights. Oh and you are basically comparing yourself to a gorilla, double crappy situation. |
|
And the funny thing is this is as high as we got, we went up one level and Pork Chop and I climbed back and forth across the easiest thing like 4 times. I kept telling him it was fine we could get down, but he was all "no I like this" when I totally could see he was scared. So after a few trips across and such we got off. I will point out there are no pictures of me hugging the post behind me there, well none that I will post. It was high! |
|
Then another day we went to Canada's Wonderland. It has been here for as long as I can remember and every year there is a new ride. Hubby took Pork Chop a few years back, but he was too little for any real rides. Well this year, he was allowed on almost all of them. And so we rode rides from the minute it opened, until the minute it closed. This is the big waterfall where they had divers, we saw them and Pork Chop was all "let's go, more rides!" |
|
That is Pork Chop and I in the front of this kids size coaster. I swear he would ride them all day , every day if he could. |
|
And we got to go swimming at my parents a few times. Pork Chop is big enough to stand up in the pool but wears his life jacket to be "brave" And I hate the pool now, not sure why, I would spend all day in it as a kid. Anyway I spent the time listening to "Daddy, daddy, daddy, daddy look at me!" And then he would jump in. |
|
And of coarse Hubby had to take pictures under water. I will not post the self portraits he took, those are just for me. Also Grandpa will always do a canon ball, Pork Chop thinks it's the coolest. He has done that since I was a kid. |
|
My little Pork Chop, he is getting so big. |
|
And he had to wear these goggles, and jump in holding his nose. So cute. |
Then this past week we went to the annual exhibition. We had planned to go to the Fan Expo, you know the thing I was making my steam punk outfit for? Well since a little Pork Chop is due for some serious dental work in the near future we had to pick one thing to go to. And I figure a trip as a family is better. And considering the outfit I started for Hubby ended up being a complete mess, this was good. Also they had a food truck weekend, so really it was for me to eat lots of food.
|
I only wanted pictures with the two treat trucks. This pink one looked good! I have no idea who that guy is but he must be getting a treat, so I will allow him to be in my picture. |
|
And here is Pork Chop and I and the Cupcake truck. I was "scream cupcake!" Can Pork Chop yelled "No!" So there you go. Notice the owner giving me the look? Well you know, I am used to that by now. Poor Pork Chop was not feeling the best, so I carried him "piggy back" for a while. |
|
It was only 10:30 am but I felt bad because I wanted to try a cupcake. I did and only took two bites, then tossed it. Way too sweet first thing in the morning. But I bet it would have rocked later on. So sad. |
|
We usually only get ride passes for Pork Chop and one of us, they are costly. We lucked out that my brother in law won two and hooked us up, but I was the lucky one to go on the rides. Can you tell that I am loving it? |
|
I am trying to give Hubby the stink eye, as I got really wet and he was all nice and dry. Jerk. |
|
And it was so hot we had to sit in a building to try to cool off. So Pork Chop make himself a craft, and picked out a stuffy for his new cousin, who is "the cutest baby ever!" as he says. I think he is obsessed with her, he is always asking about her. And me and her mom hope they get married one day, we are not related really so it's all good. |
|
And here is my guy in his cool guy shades, eating a plain snow cone. He loves shaved ice, and he was not drinking enough so I figured it would get some water into him. But the lady at the stand gave me a weird look when I said no flavor please, and people were sort of eyeing him as they passed by. I choose to believe it is because he is cute, not because they probably feel sorry for him having the mother that will not allow him to have a real snow cone. |
So that is about it, we didn't do as much as we usually do, as this is the first summer I am working my second job. I actually miss spending as much time with the boys as I used to. But then give me an hour with them and I am ready to go to work. Just saying.
Hope you are all ready for back to school, because it's going to be a while until next summer.

fun times!!! You need to get you one of those food trucks:):)
Looks like you had a LOT of fun! :) I also had fun looking at your pictures.. especially loved the under water one! I wonder how do you take these without ruining your camera? *lol*
Thanks for the sweet comments, we use a water proof drop proof camera, we are not the most careful people, so it may not take the best pics, but it works and we are less likely to ruin another camera:)
You are braver than I for going on those rides! Hope Pork Chop has a great school year.
That is so weird. I always picture Canada as cold and no summer ever. Just lots of ice :-) Thanks for the photos and educating me! The food truck looks like a lot of fun!
what fantastic summer pictures! I can't believe it's over. And seriously? A cupcake truck? I would be in heaven!
Looks like such a fun time! I want to get pictures at a treat truck. So jealous!
