We loved our hikes at Grundy Lake Provincial Park because of the beautiful scenic views from every angle! Other than the bothersome flies, we enjoyed the peaceful scenic views, listening to the birds, and the sound of the frogs croaking. Our children loved the cliffs and the adventure of climbing them.

Sockeye Salmon Fish Cakes
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Loblaws Companies Inc.. All opinions are 100% mine.
My family and I enjoy a variety of seafood items because of their nutritional benefits and flavour. My usual sockeye salmon recipes involve baking it, making a curry with gravy, or incorporating it into short-eats. During our trip last year to Saint Andrews, New Brunswick, we enjoyed delicious fish cakes by the sea and I wanted to replicate making them at home. I used fresh, in-season salmon for this recipe. I like the firm texture and the sweet flavour of this fish.

Please Be Nice to Sharks written by Matt Weiss has fascinating facts about the ocean's most misunderstood creatures. The targeted audience for this book is children 6 to 10 years. After reading this book, readers will understand how important it is for us to care for sharks. Many people think sharks are vicious man-eaters however, the author mentions that in reality they have killed fewer than 10 people a year mostly surfboards mistaken for seals. The source of sharks' food is tiny fish and plankton because most sharks don't have teeth.

Reading LEGO books and Building
My children have been LEGO fans since they were little and enjoy all things LEGO from building with the bricks to reading books related to LEGO. Recently, my children were playing with and building using the LEGO Friends Pop Star TV Studio and LEGO Ninjago Ninja Bike Chase sets. We also got them a bigger Ninjago set so they can enjoy putting the pieces together.
