Ty's Actual 2nd Birthday!

Today Ty officially turned two!

Jim and I were up early to collect our gift at CanPar
....shipped from Lethbridge, Alberta



Then it was off to breakfast and back to the hotel to shower and put it
together.....Later on we had 2 for 1 fish and chips at the Irish Times



Dinner was Mac'n Cheese and then it was time to open presents...
Ty didn't want help this time!



His own lawnmower ....Cool!...Just like Daddy!




Grandpa made him a Ferry Boat!.... and 3 vehicles to ride on it ......
all children on Vancouver Island know all about these special boats...

Parker waits for a turn.....so patiently...


What is in this big bag...Parker knows.....


I can reach the peddles..well almost.....





Parker`s turn.....


Ty waits while Parker tries the trike out....




Back at the hotel we decide to go back to the Irish Times to listen to ``Sister Speak``

Sister Speak

They are very good....
