Two playgrounds all within scootering distance, gorgeous sunny days, and an arcade and snack shack at the beach. Seriously, could there be a better park?

Southwick camping part I
The boys have been fascinated by campers and RVs for a while now, and they've asked us many times if we can buy a camper. We've also gone tent camping a few times, so they know they love campgrounds, but for some reason all the little compartments and sleeping areas really excite them. So we'd been planning to go camping the weekend Jeff was in Florida with Pete, but unbeknownst to them I booked us a rental RV for the weekend. It took a lot of planning and researching but I found a great camper and had it delivered and set up and hooked up for us for the weekend.
We got to the campground and registered and I asked the kids to help me look for the campsite. We drove around and got to the site but they said there was someone else there. I knew it was Rick with the camper, but we all just got out. The kids were ready to see if we were at the wrong site, or this guy was set up at the wrong site. That's when I told them that I had rented the camper for us, and that it was there for us. They were totally surprised and thrilled.
Lake Ontario day with Mama Sara
Mama Sara invited me and Theo and Beckett up to her parents' camp on Lake Ontario for the day. We lucked out with perfect weather. The boys loved seeing Preston and riding around on the pontoon boat. We docked at a sandbar and the kids played for probably almost an hour. When we went back to the camp, Sara gave them each a chance to drive the jetski!

Fairhaven Beach day with Auntie Alexis
Theo had lots he needed to talk about with Auntie Alexis. I got lots of zoning out time while they talked!
Almost every time we go to the beach, Theo finds some time to lay in the sand and zone out with a beach toy or something else. I love that about him.
