WHERE DID THE WEEKEND GO..

Our weekend was packed solid and was gone in a snap! We were shopping, building, housewarming, babysitting, swimming & sugar bushing.... The only thing missing- an Irish Pub and a Bloody Caesar and I'm OK with that. 

I had a fantastic Paddy's Day at Fulton's Sugar Bush  It is comprised of 400 acres of mixed forest (mostly sugar maple trees) and they produce plenty of Husband's favourite treat! You can dine at the pancake house, shop for treats like maple sugar candies, maple butter, maple brittle or taffy on snow; they even have a skin care line- the Maple Sugar Scrub sounds heavenly. We met up with Heather, Patrick & their kids and went on the horse drawn ride through the snowy property, dined on a feast of sausage and pancakes and enjoyed the outdoor park which included roasting marshmallows around a camp fire.  

It was a cold day today, I would love to go back once the snow melts and have a walk through the sugar maple forest trails and have a go at tapping.. Here are the instructions they offer on the HOW TO make your own syrup. There really have something for everyone. It was super busy so be an early bird. 

Since our little bug is starting to get around a little more ( the wobbly walker) and it's still pretty cold outside we wanted to find him an activity gym we could use indoors. We went into ToyRus on Saturday and found the Little Tikes Endless Adventures Swing along Castle Climber and had it set up by afternoon. He was 

crazy happy with it and Steve had it together in less than 20 minutes. Let's hope this keeps E out of  our baking cupboard.

Oh and our little duck started him swimming lessons this weekend- he did great!
