A Father's Day Picnic...

On Father's day we joined a few of Maura's family members (huge family, but not everyone could make it) for a picnic on Toronto island. Toronto Island is just off downtown Toronto and you take a ferry or boat there. There is a huge picnic area, as well as a small amusement park, bike trails, and lots more. There is even an airport.

As we were driving to Mary's (Maura's sister) building to park, I realized that Paige has never even been in Toronto.
When we got there we all had a picnic and the kids kicked around a soccer ball.

Here are all of the dads that were present with their kids.
When we went over to Centreville (the amusement park), we went on a few rides. Mike, Maura and I took Paige on the train ride. Grandpa took Paige on a car ride (pictures below), and I took Paige on a nauseating Merry Go Round.



I had packed Paige's bathing suit in hopes of hitting up the splash pad, but when we were there we realized that the splash pad was too far and we didn't have Paige's stroller. There was also a wading pool that was still closed.
By the time we got in the car at 4:00, Paige had a nice long nap that continued on well into the house on Grandma and Grandpa's bed.
