Rockin Like a Boss

Here's a clip from a little mahem around the house. If Jimi only knew the crazy antics that his music was causing!

Pre School Graduation

We had a big event happen the other day when our family welcomed another graduated preschooler to our house of decorated individuals. Lucia proudly displays her ceremonial gown as Mom got her all ready for her big event. Andrew said that he understood how Lucy was graduating, but that he would have to stay another year as he's not quite big enough yet.

Its hard to believe that she has already put in her time at the preschool and is now ready to start the new world of Kindergarten. She was one of the bravest kids to head off to school, in fact she couldn't wait. She would get her back pack ready and pack her lunch while watching the other kids getting on the bus.

There wasn't a moment of hesitation when she was finally old enough to pack up her bag for real and head out to the bus. I think it will be a different experience for Andrew when Lucia is not around to look out for him next year. The girls have a way of looking after their younger brothers that is really special. Boys sometimes seem a little too energetic for their own good. A good big sister can always help to bring them back to reality. Although a little independence will probably do Andrew some good.

Girl Slaloms Like a Boss

I had to repeat the title, it was funny. You have to check out this roller blading, pretty cool:

Believe in Yourself!

Okay friends, you must watch this video below, SO CUTE!! And what a message too! I had to watch this one before watching the Canucks play tonight. I think that some of them may have watched it too. Definitely Luongo!

Backyard Party

To my delight I was treated to a backyard tea party. Well, there was no tea, but there was an elaborate amount of ceremony! My little girls arranged this ordeal all on their own, so I quickly grabbed the camera and headed out back for some sneaky pictures. I wasn't able to hide long before they saw me and were embarrassed, but I was still able to get some shots of their adorable little game.

It was so hot out today, and after a night of excitement last night, it was just what the doctor ordered. The Canucks were the catalyst to a fairly action packed evening. What a game though, well worth celebrating. Here's a little glimpse of what Vancouver was like last night after the game:

Trip to the Vancouver Aquarium

Last week I was a temporary bachelor as Mer took the kids for a fun little trip down to Vancouver. Her mom went along with her and they made a little holiday out of it. Here are a few shots of the baby admiring some slightly larger mammals. We saw some aquariums down in the states, but I must say that the Vancouver Aquarium is one on the nicest in North America. The kids had a great time and I was able to get a huge amount of school work finished too!
