Back from the Cottage

After another week of holidaying, we are finally home again. We were gone for a week to a cottage with Mike's family just outside of Rondeau Park, just over 3 hours away from home. Although the weather was a little cool, we were able to get a few beach days in, along with walking, biking, relaxing, and lots of games. We celebrated Robert's first birthday while there, and it was fun to watch the two little boys playing together during the week.
We came back home yesterday to a green lawn (yay for good grass seed!), ripe tomatoes, lots of beans, and lots of laundry.
