Alhamdulillah last weekend we enjoyed our family road trip to Ottawa for the AlKauthar conference. Mashallah we had a lot of fun and Im really glad we went.

| What I packed in their backpacks. CD books, books, stickers, paper, a ziploc bag with goodies from the dollar store, mini flash lights, silly putty, stamps and cars. Yusuf and Ibby each had their own backpack, plus we had a snack bag. |
 |
| I made dup-tangs for them with a map of our journey, car bingo, tic tac toe sheets and some blank papers |

Brothers at the conference. It can be kind of tiring taking small kids to such conferences but I really think they benefit, and no doubt they have a lot of fun alhamdulillah!

| The day after the conference we cross into Quebec and went to the Museum. It was amazing! The kids area was great! The had so many activities for the kids and gave passports to get stamped at every station. Mashallah the kids had a blast! Check it out here. (The pictures do not do the place justice.) |

| After the museum we stopped by at our friends house for a few hours. We actually met this couple in hajj and mashallah it was great seeing them! They have two older girls and a 7 yr old boy, and a bird :) Needless to say, the boys had a great time here as well alhamdulillah |
