Collingwood

We decided to take the August long weekend (here is Ontario it’s a long weekend) and get away from the city.

These days, I can only really get my kids together if I isolate them far far away from friends. LOL.

Our first night I took this pic of Sam

And so we did.

My mom and sister joined us as they wanted to see Zach before his mission and Zandra before BYU Hawaii.

Our good friends and neighbours were so generous and offered us to stay in their beautiful home in Collingwood. We are so blessed to have such kind and awesome friends!

I headed up with my Mom, sis and Josh and Sam earlier and Rob came up later with Zandra and Zach (since they had to work that day).

The first day we headed to Wasaga Beach. The water level was so high though, that there was barely any beach:(

The boys played their usual beach games and we walked a bit and all laid out in the sun too long and got burned.

The next day Rob took the kids to play some tennis and I took my mom and sister into Collingwood to sit by the water.

Later, we went into Blue Mountain village.

We spent the evenings walking around and a few of us went on a hike one night.

It was fun having Reggie with us!

These two were always game to go with us. Trying to squeeze as much time with them anyways, so it worked out quite well:

Walking up the ski hill!

We went on some drives:

Then we totally binged on Friday Night Lights – our vacation show! (I think I took a pic of the screen but I will spare you, lol)

We had some good meals – and the boys loved the leftovers as late night snacks:

Then it was over. The boys drove back with me:

We took some pics of them with Gran and a few extra of Gran and Auntie Di with Zach since they won’t see him again before his mission:

And that was the end of the long weekend…. August is zooming by…
