Granville Island & Colton's Bris




This morning Sydney and I met up with our friends Sarah and Emma at Granville Island water park so the kids could splash and play in the water for a while in the heat!  Sarah and Emma have been away for three weeks for Sarah and Mike's wedding in Niagara on the Lake and honeymooning in Paris.  We missed them so much while they were gone!  It was so nice to see them today and catch up on their trip and what's been happening this summer!


Sydney has been so funny at the water parks this summer.  She doesn't really love the spraying water a lot, is quite hesitant to get wet at all to be honest, and today she was particularly being a monkey, running away from me, taking her swimsuit off and having a really hard time listening....she eventually played for a while with the fire hydrant and hose which kept her mostly entertained!


After the kids had had enough of the water, we headed over to the patio at Whet and had a lovely lunch together.  Both Sydney and Emma have just finished potty training in the last couple of weeks and it was so funny to see them both using the little potty that I'd brought along with me.  What big girls we have now!


We enjoyed a lovely meal and a glass or two of wine in the sun followed by a quick visit to the Kids Market and gelato with the girls.  What a fantastic Vancouver day in the sun!  A perfect summer memory!

This evening we got together with a group of family and friends to celebrate a very special event, the Brit Milah, of Sydney's newest cousin, Colton.  It was such a fantastic ceremony and so nice to meet the new baby!




After the bris, we decided to head to the University Golf Club for dinner on the patio with Elaine and Harry.  It was a super warm day and so nice to relax in the cool evening and have some dinner together.

What a full and fun day!
