Our recipe for a great day.
Blue skies, family, turning leaves, crisp air and even crispier apples.


This is what happens when we ask them to "say cheese".














Show me your apples.

The Second Gleam.

canada's wonderland

The day started with two boys full of energy.

We met up with Vic, Hailey, Barb and Paige.



Mommy and Graydon on one spooky ride.

Foster's first bumper car experience.
He may need some steering tips.

Jimmy Neutron is a very "spinny" ride. 
It may also be the culprit of Graydon's Nausea.
Daddy's tip: Stick to roller-coasters.


Mmmmmm, Tiny Tom donuts.
With cinnamon.


Treasure hunting.


While Graydon took a rest, Foster won his big brother a duck.
Quack!

More treasure hunting.
Aaargh!

Me and Paige on the Silver Streak.


The Fly.


Toward the end of the day, Graydon started to feel better.
He was still anxious that I put my camera away 
before the ride started though.

We save the best for last.

Pre "Behemoth" jitters.


And, action! Take 1.

Take 2.

Unofficial tradition.
Every year, our group portrait is always at 
the same location at the end of the day.

Dinner?

Yep, dinner.

Two boys with a little less energy 
than at the beginning of the day.
