June Field Trips & Father's Day

 We've been busy since May!
We got our house ready to list, listed it, sold it, went house hunting, found a new house, made an offer then cleared conditions.  Now we are waiting for closing on July 14!
Until then we are keeping busy - we took the girls and their bikes to Baker Park for a ride on a very nice day.
 In one week of house hunting we saw 20 houses - on the night that we went to see the house we eventually made an offer on - Cara lost her first tooth!  More on that coming up.
 Gwen loves her balance bike - she's really starting to go fast on it.
So, here is Cara with her her little tooth in a bag for the tooth fairy.
It was quite exciting - her tooth was very loose and while eating supper that night she took a bite of a cucumber slice.  The tooth fell out without her noticing and we all thought she swallowed it!  Luckily Daddy found it on the floor and saved the day!
 Gwen went on a field trip to a pet store with her preschool.
She got to touch many different creatures and had a great time.
 Petting a frog!
Hello Guinea Pig!
She also touched a snake, lizard, parrot, tortoise and rabbit - she was brave!
 A week later Cara went on a field trip to a Corn Maze (without the corn maze).  They had lots of fun things for the kids to do - first was painting!  She got messy!
 She rolled around in a giant hamster ball!
 Jumped high on a trampoline!
 Learned Archery! (foam arrows!!)
She had a great time!




Big news for Gwen is she's moved on out of her toddler bed!
Now in a twin (mattress of the floor since she tends to roll out)
She loves her big bed and she picked out her sheets and comforter in her fav colour!
 Father's Day was a lot of fun.
First we took Daddy breakfast in bed but couldn't let him sleep in since we were going to Roam the Runway at the Calgary Airport.
There is a new runway that is opening soon but before the planes land on it the airport opened it up for a fun day with air planes on display and stuff.  It was a bit rainy and cool but we went anyway.
Gwen got to sit in a police car.
 Cara and Gwen locked in the back of a police car!
The one and only time they will be in one I hope!
 We got up close to the new 787 that Air Canada has.
 Really close!
 Daddy and his girls :)
 We met some Olympians!
 Chalk drawing on the biggest runway in Canada!
 Gwen found the walk a bit long and the rain a bit boring.
 The kid zone saved it for Gwen.
 Cara had a lot of fun too.
 They got balloon airplanes.
 Face painting!
Gwen requested: Rainbow Kitty Cat
 Cara requested: Cat
They were so cute :)
After a very long walk and some rain we got one last pose with the big runway and called it a day!

It was a fun Father's Day.

We will be busy packing and with the upcoming McGinn visit!!  Then Stampede then we move!
Lots happening and we are taking pictures of it all and they'll get posted when we get a chance to update.  This coming week has Gwen's end of year preschool concert and Cara's last day of Kindergarten!  The school year has flown by!

Yay for Summer!
