Return of Batman!

We went to Market Days on Friday with our friend, Christine, which means they closed off 5 th street (the downtown shopping area) to traffic and all the vendors came out to sell their wares but in addition to shopping there were clowns (Liam's favorite), a face painter, a dunk tank and of course my favorite the Kettle Corn booth. mmmmm

Liam wanted to get his face painted so I thought he might ask to be a monkey, a car or a bear or something to that nature but nope he wanted to be BATMAN! First off I am not sure if he even knows who Batman is but he knows of Batman from the famous Jingle Bells - Batman/Robin version!! So I guess that's where he got it from? Who knows he's a crazy man these days with a very active imagination.



On Sunday afternoon we headed out to do a late afternoon exploration of the Comox Lake Dam Conservation Area - once again another cool area that is less than a 10 minute drive from us. We did a little trail called the River Loop and saw exactly 2 other people while on the trail. What are people doing on weekends where the weather is in the mid to high 20s. I hope their outside!! Torr enjoyed most of the hike snoozing away in the back pack but when he woke up he was more than amused by his older brother's antics!







Today, I took the kids out to Miracle Beach to meet up with our friend Julia and her two sons , Benji and Noah. They had a blast we only went out for a few hours but everyone was exhausted by the time we arrived home.



Needless to say We've had a busy week here in Courtenay and the weeks only just begun!

Later!!
