Tessa takes her game to the greens. She is better at chasing the ball than driving it.
Tessa is training for the next big race. She is so focussed on her footing.
Tessa likes to Swiffer.
Tessa gets to enjoy a little bit of fun at the beach. She looks so cute in her cover up.
She plays hard in the sand with cousin Makenzie.

"Hey Tessa Fans, sorry it takes so long to update the blog, but you know when we do it is awesome. Our latest pics are from our family trip to Canada. We had a blast."
The Peters' family trip to Canada. Janet (Dan's Mom) is a Canadian citizen & one of her greatest desires was to take her whole family to tour Ontario where she grew up and got married. We spent 7 days & 6 nights sight-seeing and visiting relatives. On our return trip we stopped at Niagra Falls for 2 of the days. It took us roughly 12 hours to drive (1 van & 1 car) from CT to Ontario with a lot of stops on the way. Tessa (13 months) and her cousin Jeffery(2) were great troopers when it came to spending time in the car and eating all their meals in restaurants. This picture was taken on the last day so we are all about 5lbs. heavier than when we started. :) From top left going clockwise we have: Michelle, Dan Jr., Tessa, Laura, Maria, Janet, Dan Sr., Ruthy, Jeffery, & John.
"Calling all Peters, we are allready behing schedule."
Pack up the van and we are off for Canada.



Tessa is a big girl on the potty. She has a Fitness magazine.
Good thing Tess & Jeffery liked the strollers. They were in them a lot. Jeffery liked to push Tessa around the room.

Here we are standing near Niagra Falls.
Tessa is enjoying a lollipop (it was vacation, we all endulge a little)

We are happy but Tessa is not. She is much happier when she is doing what Jeffery is.


Tessa enjoying different ways to drink water. All of us on a sight-seeing elevator.
Jeffery is so cute.

Tessa is ready to go after she eats. She gabbed our ears off.
Laura & Maria finally calmed her down.

We all entertained Tessa to pass all the miles. And some of us sang songs for her.

Happy camper in the car. And a happy sleeper in the car.
We sat in the back so we could see everything.

At church in Canada. At Pinafore Park in St. Thomas.
Swinging with Jeffery.
Swinging and giving a high-five.

At Lake Erie in Port Stanley.

Tessa in the pool at Grandma & Grandpa Peters.
The falls on the American side as seen from the Canadian side. The Canadian falls or the "Horseshoe Falls".
Both falls.

We are at the Rainforest Cafe.

We had lots of laughs.
This is us on the Maid of the Mist.
