Fair weather fall fun

The weather was lovely for my parent's visit and we were able to get outside a lot.  After lunch on Saturday, we headed to the Apple Orchard.  Shaun, my Dad, Patrick and Kathryn went through the corn maze and my Mom and I hung out with William.  It was rather hot, so we took him for a walk (in one of the wagons) in the shade, shared an apple and met lots of friendly dogs - W was thrilled! We also played at the kids playground which is right near the maze. 

The kids all enjoyed themselves and we took some apples home too!

That evening, Shaun's parents came by for a visit.   I am truly blessed that my parents and Shaun's parents get along so well!  They had fun discussing their upcoming trips to Hawaii/Austrailia and we enjoyed some delicious desserts - a lemon pie my Dad had made and a chocolate cake I made to celebrate my parent's upcoming birthdays (they are 2 years minus 2 days apart!)

The next morning we fed the wildlife at Fairy Lake and then headed to Jubilee Park .  This is by far the best park for William right now as the main climber is not too high off the ground, and most of the ground is that spongy/rubber material which hurts less when you fall into it and he can't pick it up to try and eat it.

Happy to be swinging

 My Dad, Shaun, Patrick and Kathryn had turns climbing this rope structure:

Getting climbing/footing instructions. She is such a dare devil!

Even Patrick joined in the climbing for a bit.

 Kathryn even went RIGHT to the top!!

Look at me!

 Willy had a blast learning to slide (can almost go it alone now), doing a bit of swinging and climbing on absolutely everything.
