Canada Day

Camping with friends.  Busy!  Hard to keep up, lots of chaos and lots of laughs. 

First night there and Lili tells us she left her bedroom window open.  So I drove back.  Nice part of camping in our own town. Shannon and Deanna came for the cool drive and a Menchies break.

Jerry Maple Moose.  He was awesome!  Lit up the whole campsite.  Cool Gramma score.

Cards by the light of Jerry.

Jia and Kalum, best buddies for life.  They are incredibly sweet together.

Morning theater.  Monsters Inc.

Loving all that Canadian Spirit!

Beatiful girl :)

Day 2 escape. Despicable Me 3. We spent the day at the river and then went to a 5 o'clock movie.  Late dinner.  Movie was hillarious.  Boys were great.  I think we finally have this movie thing down.

River Tubing. First time for the girls. It was even Penny's 1st time. They all loved it.

Looked like so much fun.

The little crew...left behind.

So exciting to see them coming around the bend.

Fluke on Dagon's matching muscle shirt.

Such cute muscle poses!

Evening stroll.

Scholarship Applications

So the night before we leave camping and we've left everything to the last minute and it's been a busy week.  Last week of school.  And we are asked if the girls would like to apply for a music scholarship.  Last minute...deadline in the morning.  They had to write letters and fill in paperwork.  Busy busy days!

They got it done.  Fingers crossed.

The Last Granola Bar

I've got stashed Chewbacca granola bars and this morning I took the last one in my lunch.  I put the box in the garbage.  Kai took it out brought it to Eric and pointed the words 'Star Wars' and read it and then turned the box and pointed to the Disney word and said Disneyland!  I call that reading.  Love seeing him learn.  Such big changes.  And on a sad note...that's the last of my Chewbacca treats.

Cool Picture of Fun Fair

Eric just got this picture with a thank you from the pac.  Fun shot of fun fair.

Sports Day

We usually only have a couple photos of each event.  Today Eric took tons.  Hard to pick just a few.  I stayed for the races this morning.  Luk's first time in the chair.  He and Kai had girls from grade 5 helping them.  The weather was great.  Kids all had a great time. 

Year End Dance Show

Another year of dance down.  Girls were happy to do the recital.  Performing has definitely  become no big deal.  Lili even helped with some announcing. 

Hottest day of the year so far and the school was crazy hot and sufficating.  I'm sooo glad we chose to keep the littles at home with Eric! 

Having some Menchies and a drive in the convertible after helped!

Today Eric worked all day.  The boys have been abusing the toy room and are currently banned until they clean up and atone.  Which means no tv either.  I'm guessing they'll get back on track as soon as they realize they lost tv ;)  The girls and I have all taken the day off.  We did all have a long swim.  The pool is at 80.  Nice.  No pictures all day.

Oh, and Mom scored us a free wire moose with lights on it.  I'm sure it's supposed to be for Christmas but we're going to take him camping for Canada day.
