PNE

September 3, 2011

It's time for the PNE once again.  We always go with my family but we were all very busy at the end of the summer.  The only day we were all free was the Saturday of the Labour Day weekend - a little busier than we're used to but still fun.  Unfortunately, Daniel wasn't feeling very well and spent a lot of the day in the stroller with Sarah.  We had to leave right after dinner, poor guy.  But Adam and Sarah had fun and Daniel enjoyed most of the day.  Here are a few pictures of the day.

We visited the Canadian Forces display and the kids got to try out some of the machinery and equipment.  They got to sit in a replica fighter jet but those pictures didn't turn out very well.

Next, we headed to the barns to see all the farm animals.

There's a farm display for the kids where they get to see all the different ways food is grown and how it gets to the store for us to buy.  Here they are, ready to harvest.

Planting some seeds.

Picking apples in the orchard - they should be experts at this because of the Thanksgiving Apple Squish.

Here are our three bad eggs.  :)

Fishing for some salmon.

Every farmer needs a tractor.

At the end, they sold all the food they had grown and earned $1.00 to spend at the store.  :)

Sarah loved the baby chicks and ducks.

Those baby pigs were too cute!

After the barns, we met up with the rest of my family and had some dinner and went to see the Superdog show.  Luckily, that perked Daniel up a bit and all three had a great time cheering the dogs on.  We left right after, though.  A short and sweet visit to the PNE but still a lot of fun!
