Blogger slacker at it again!

My little sister Kelcee called me tonight to chat, which in turn led to a conversation about this very blog, which ultimately led to my guilty conscience about doing anything BUT blogging lately! Sad to say, but blogging has not been a priority of mine lately. Truthfully, it's been down towards the bottom of the list of things I need to accomplish, but I ended the conversation with my sister by promising her I would go upstairs to my computer and blog something....anything.... that has happened in the past month or two. Actually, it feels kind of good to be back at the computer typing up my memories. So now the question is what should I start with. I guess I'll begin with our trip to Toronto and Niagara Falls. We took off the last day of school on June 11th and had a fabulous time checking out Canada, eh!

So we started off our trip right. We spent Sunday morning traveling to the Toronto Temple. It was beautiful, but because it was Sunday the gates were closed. I wish we could have gone in and walked around the grounds. There is nothing more peaceful in the world to me than being on the temple grounds.

My baby and I

Plus my 3 super babies.

The CN Tower was a huge hit for all of us. I believe it is the 2nd tallest building in the world, and boy did it have an amazing view!! We were there on an overcast day, but on a clear day you can see Niagara Falls from the top.

The CN Tower has a glass bottom floor that made me leery, but was still very cool.

Yep~~Those would be 5 camels posing for a picture!! Lucky me lol!

We made our way to the Royal Ontario Museum and hit the McDonald's across the street for a quick lunch break. We loved being in Canada where everything is labeled in both English and French. It helped make our vacation feel a little more exotic.

The ROM had a lot of neat exhibits including one about Egypt complete with real mummies, including one that was open on display!

I just love this picture of two happy boys.

This is the Casa Loma Castle.

All the boys exploring the grounds around the castle.

This was Caleb's face the majority of the vacation. He's such a sweet kid!

My hubby given' me some lovin'

Caleb at the Science Center. Another museum that the boys couldn't get enough of.


Overlooking Niagara falls. This is one of my favorite places in the world. It is gorgeous!


We went to one of the world's largest indoor aviary's. Yet another beautiful, peaceful place to go.

One our favorite activities of all was going to an indoor butterfly pavilion. There were hundreds, probably more like thousands of butterflies flying all around us. It was amazing.

All my sweetie's.

Hmmm...Yep, Caleb is a man that LOVES his chocolate!!

My incredibly handsome pre-teen, Kyler.


Niagara Falls. I've been here twice in my life, and can't wait to go back again.

So, I'm beginning to remember why I don't blog as much as I should. It takes me WAY TO LONG!! I start multi-taking on the computer, and before I know it an hour has gone by to write a paragraph and upload a few photos. I hope you enjoy Kelcee. Thanks for giving me the motivation to put my memories down on paper...errr...at least put down in some sort of format. I had a good time looking back over these photos and reminiscing happy times last month.
