Down at the Lock

After another grueling week (I'm so done with this single parenting thing!) the kids and I all needed a break and a change of scenery.  So Saturday morning we grabbed some hot cakes and orange juice (and maybe a Diet Coke) from McDonalds and had a breakfast picnic at Lock #2.  After breakfast we did some exploring around the lock and we worked on a homecoming gift for John, but you'll have to wait until next week to see that ; )  
Heights are so not my thing . . . this cat walk was terrifying!
This bird was right next to us, but he flew across the river before I could get the camera out : (  I couldn't believe how big he was close up!  I think it's a heron . . . ?
 How could I not take my two year old's picture next to this awesome number two?
Cute boys!
I needed this outing to regroup and it seemed to do the trick.  Yesterday and today have been much smoother sailing.  Only one more week to go . . . we can do this!
