Helper

Sissy enjoyed helping Daddy tidy up the yard a bit...

Canadian Nationals

Oh, Canada

Last week, Mom had to go to a 3 day conference for work in Vancouver BC, so we came along. Our hotel was in the West End, right across from the beach at English Bay and right next to Stanley Park. It was so beautiful. Some highlights were lots of walks on the beach, playing in various cool playgrounds, the aquarium, a minature train ride through the forest, and a petting zoo.

And eating Smarties.

Eh?

Park Slope, Brooklyn, New York

Sissy and Mommy just got back from a trip to New York where they got to visit with Auntie Lauren, Uncle Timothy and our newest cousin, Sadie Adeline. Here are a few shots...

Biker Girl

Sissy took this bike around the block 4 times the other day...all on her own.

Need we say more?

Happy Fourth of July!

We started our Independence Day with the traditional Columbia Neighborhood parade where kids decorate their vehicles and march through the neighborhoods behind a band playing patriot music in the back of a pick-up. Then came music, games and a picnic.

Later in the day, our own neighborhood shut down part of Iron Street for the evening festivities. Kids rode bikes up and down the street, enjoyed fireworks and ate tons of yummy food. The highlight was an enormous 30 pound pig that had been roasted all night on hot rocks in a huge fire pit our friends' backyard.

Hope you enjoyed your holiday, too.
