No matter what we always have a great time when the cousins get together. Here we are at the park in Ancaster. We enjoyed the splash pad, ate some lunch, rode our bikes and played in the playground. Fun had by all.
There were a few tears and the odd 'I hate this stupid bike' but in the end after some pushing from her mother and lots of practicing on the track across the street Avery has it figured out and is nice and confident on her bike. Muddy is the opposite extreme, he worked and worked on his own and figured out how to get on and off the bike on his own and how it pedal it. He can now easily ride to the ice cream store and back without any difficulty.
Our lovely neighbour Sharon has a continuous supply of popsicles to ensure she gets to spend quality time with our two little monkeys. It is a very effective strategy as Avery and McKinley ask all the time to go over to 'see' Sharon. I am sure it is an unexpected bonus that they get a popsicle almost every single time.
