Family Get Together

My sister Kathy is celebrating her 50th birthday soon, so we decided to have a surprise party for her. We had a bit of a mix up when we scheduled it and we found out a week before the party that Sarah (my niece) was going to be away that weekend so it was decided to not have a birthday party. As we still had a bunch of family invited, we decided to go ahead with the party and just have a fun afternoon.

Chris was already in Burlington on business, so Alex and I took the train to Toronto and Kathy and Sarah picked us up. Sarah stayed home from school that day so we could see her before she left for her camping weekend. The kids had so much fun together and May (Jenny's nanny) took the kids to the park that evening and they had an amazing time.

On the day of the party, Grandpa and Aunt Mary took Kian and Alex to the Science Museum for the morning so we could focus on getting things organized for the party.

The party itself was tons of fun and it was so wonderful to see cousins and our Aunt Julie. We were sorry a few people couldn't make it but overall the day was really fun with lots of good food and laughter.

Here's a few pictures from the kids trip to the museum and also one from the party with Alex in a HUGE swing Jenny has at her place.
