Cottage Fun with Friends

Hannah and I were invited to spend the weekend with friends Liz and Ava at their cottage.  Even though the forecast was rain, rain, rain we knew there was much fun to be had!  In the end the weather was much nicer than forecasted and even when it rained the girls created many masterpieces with Ava’s craft supplies.

Going to the cottage offered Hannah the first time to leave our province for another Canadian province.  I was surprised to realize that as much as she’s been to at least 8 US states (when we include stopovers in airports), she’d never been outside of Ontario in Canada.  That all changed last Friday.IMG_6946

When we arrived at Liz and Ava’s cottage we decided to go for a quick Sea-Doo ride as we weren’t sure if we’d be able to later in the weekend.IMG_6870

Miss Liz purchased a number of matching outfits for the girls.  Here are their night one nightg0wns.  Cuteness abounds!IMG_6877

Saturday morning dawned cloudy but not rainy so we dressed for a morning of frogging and clamming.  We started off attempting to stay day and quickly decided that getting wet was the only way to go!IMG_6878

Miss Liz is much braver than Mommy!!

You can see by this picture that the water is shallow for a LONG ways out.  We had walked out from the beach and the water never even reached Hannah’s seat!

Clamming was followed by some swinging and sliding fun and then it was time for lunch.IMG_6912

This video makes me laugh.  Can you tell these girls love their gymnastics?

More cottage fun to come.
