Quarry Day!

Yesterday was Quarry Day at the Wainfleet Quarry with our friends and all of their kids. Quarry Day is something that our friend and neighbour Stacy and her friends have been doing for forever, but this was the first time for our family. Unfortunately Mike couldn't get out of work for the afternoon, but everyone had a blast nonetheless. Tristan was a little hesitant to get in the water at first ( he's never been in water before where his feet can't touch the bottom), but 5 minutes after he initially got in he was jumping off rocks with all the older boys! Both he and Bailey caught a minnow ( and released it, of course), the older boys caught crayfish, and I got a horrible sunburn. Sunscreen next time for me! We finished the day by meeting up at Stacy's for a bonfire, which is a pretty regular occurence for us. All in all it was a wonderful day, and everyone went to bed happy!

Here are a few pictures I snapped on my phone of the kids.

Bailey's minnow! ( I didn't manage to get a picture of Tristans, he and Xander threw it back too quickly for my incredibly slow phone camera)

Stacy's dog Tessa even took a swim!

Tomorrow is our yard sale, Mike and I have so much work to do tonight. I can't wait to get rid of some of our "stuff" but I am definitely not looking forward to waking up at the crack of dawn to set up. Hopefully Mike's planning on going to Tim Hortons for a coffee run! Extra large triple triple please!

Oh! Also, here are a few pictures of my new truck, a 2000 Dodge Dakota V8 :)

Love it!
