It wasn't a hot and sunny beach but.....

Well, March Break wasn't spent some place tropical but we had a great time and sure kept busy. After our time away at Nee Nee's and our night in Niagara Falls we headed to Toronto to visit with Jason's Grandparents....the kids call G.G. and G.G. 2 for a little visit and lunch.



The next day we headed off to Horseshoe Valley to take Riley skiing. We live less then 10 minutes from the resort. We headed straight for the magic carpet where I was quickly told "I don't need any help" and she was right. She walked with her skis onto the carpet and got on with no problems. Once we got to the top of the hill she informed me "it's ok to hold my hand" and off we went. We skiied down this way a few times then she became much braver and wanted to do it by herself...once again she did and was great. We are so impressed with her and she loved it...she would have stayed all day if we let her. Simon came with us as well and rode the magic carpet in his boots and walked down the side of hill. He was with Jason for the first part of the morning and was brain washed.....all he kept saying was "I snowboard."






After the action of skiing in the morning, it was mommy's night out:) I got to go see Bon Jovi again thanks to my good friends Kara and Paul. We had a great night out together swooning over Jon.

That takes us to Thursday when we went swimming at a new recreation complex in Barrie. It was us and the rest of the city of Barrie in the pool...it was so busy. On Friday we spent the day outside going for walks and building a snowman.




Saturday we all headed down to Toronto to watch Jason play in a volleyball tournament. It was so cute to hear the kids yelling 'Go, Daddy, Go!" they are his biggest fans.

We had a great week together and are sad that it went by so fast. Riley is very anxious to get back to school, she asked us daily "you remember I go to school, right?" Some of us are not quite as excited to get back at it.....only 35 more days for Amanda until summer vacation...not that we're counting:)
