Fei on her new bike.
Jia's first bike ride in the trailer, she liked it a lot more than the baby seat.
Couldn't get all the pipers and drummers in one frame, it really was impressive.
Lame stage, but always nice to see our girlies dance.
Ready for the piano recital

Fathers Day.
Jia's first hot dog. I think she liked it.
I'm happy to report that the piano recital went well. Fei had her doubts after the dance fiasco. They've got three years of lessons and it sure shows in their playing! They were fabulous. Lili did an awesome job of introducing them both. Fei is still adament that she isn't talking on a stage. Jia was all smiles when her girls were on the stage. Link is above, but here it is again anyways, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTkbV2Hr0zg
Sat. the girls danced at the Highland Gathering. We'd never been to a Gathering before. There were 14 pipes and drums bands there and when they all played Amazing Grace together during the opening ceremonies it was truely impressive.
Jia has one more music class, the girls have one more piano lesson and then school is out next Wed. We're almost done! Can't wait for the lazy days of summer.
I was just on-line checking out the water slides at Bridal Falls, our first stop on our holiday this year. We're planning to wing the rest of the trip and have a true adventure. Two kids, a baby, a puppy, a chihuahua and two rats in an RV across BC. It will be an adventure no matter what we do or where we go :) My whole family loves a good road trip, me...not quite as much.
We're still not getting great weather here, hard to believe summer is upon us. Sure hope it's better for July! The kids are already talking about all of their camping spots and they are the most excited to get back to Kissinger Lake. It's a tiny lake with no services, small campground, no point bothering with bikes it's too small for that. You can swim or sit and watch others swim. It's amazing to me that it's their favorite. Go figure.
Fathers Day yesterday, the girls and I took Eric to brunch before he left for his day of riding. In the evening we had a fire and hotdogs. Kids played in the backyard until Jia's bedtime. They are such great big sisters, they totally include her when they play outside. Jia's favorite things to do are playing soccer, jumping in the trampoline and swinging in her new swing. She yells 'SWIDE, SWIDE' when we head out but she really doesn't like the slide that much.
