Adventures

Summer is gone, with warm and sunny weather fading into memory... so when the day dawns with an opportunity for breakfast outside, we take it!

He loves crawling behind the trestle table in the kitchen, though he's just about too tall now to stand up without hitting his head.

Following on from his excursions behind the table, Deavan also enjoys spelunking back-and-forth along the tunnels in the land of Couch and Loveseat. Great fun for the little guy, who loves to play peek-a-boo when he pops up at either end!

We also enjoyed a 2 hour hike on the mountain bike trails in Kanata. Notice how he's leaning to his left... which he did for 2 hours. Thank goodness for a sturdy and load-dispersing backpack!

Three generations of Edward's (Dennis, Scott, and Deavan) made a trip to the Museum of Science & Technology for an interactive experience (and to see the special Bicycle exhibit). Deavan had a great time, owing mostly to the fact that it was very quiet, and he could crawl around everywhere! He loved pushing buttons, turning lights off and on, making sounds, turning and pushing things around, and spending time with Grandpa Fitz. It was great fun, and while the Museum is in desperate need of stepping into the 21st Century, it's still worth the trip.

Hi! Is the trestle table the one that Fitz made for "the big verandah" at 2BG? I have the original small version he made for Hope so she could see what he planned. Needless to say she approved, and he went ahead and made the 'real thing'! Love Robin

Yep! The one and same table!

We've used it quite a lot over the years; it was our dining room table in the red room... I have a picture of that setup somewhere.
