Release the Power!

"When the music starts playing, this power takes over me and I just have to let it out!"

Nelson and Jessica's wedding reception on August 21, 2010. Avi danced the night away and outlasted his Dad. We finally dragged Avi off the dance floor at 11:30 pm.

Aunty Jess' Wedding

Aunty Jessica and Uncle Nelson got married yesterday.

I like weddings because you get to dress up, the usually play one of my favourite songs, "Ode to Joy," and there is dancing at the reception.

Here I am in my new, fancy clothes that Mommy bought 'specially for the occasion. I really like my new shoes and the clip-on tie. To be extra fancy, I let Mommy spike up my hair with gel.

After the kissing part there were bubbles! I liked that!

Stay tuned for my next post from the reception. There was dancing!!! I love to dance! Mommy has to fix the video first because it's pretty dark and hard to see my dance moves.

Mini'bots Camp

This week I'm at St. George's attending a summer camp. I love going to camps at St. George's. Everyone is really nice and I always have lots of fun.

Mommy thinks this camp is good practice for grade 1 because I'm there from 9am to 3:30pm. I even take a lunch and eat it there without her.

The camp I'm attending this year is called Mini'bots. I've wanted to take this camp since I was only 5 years old. I'm learning all about circuits and building an electronic mouse that can run all over our house just like a real mouse. Besides building the mouse, I've already finished making a motorized submarine.

So we aren't stuck in the classroom all day, our camp leader, Liam, takes us to other activity stations. On the first day, I went swimming and tested out my submarine. I've also played soccer, gone to the library for games station, played games in the gym, and had circus station where I got my face painted and did all kinds of circus tricks like walking on stilts. Today in arts and crafts I made this bracelet for Mommy. She says it's very beautiful and she likes it a lot.

This week has been lots of fun and I've made some new friends too. I'm really tired at the end of the day but it's all worth it.

Tigh-Na-Mara

For the long weekend, Mommy, Daddy and I went to Vancouver Island with my wife, Shyree, and her family. Shyree's mom and dad have a place at Tigh-Na-Mara in Parksville.

The whole weekend was fun. The ferry ride was fun, playing at the beach was fun, seeing the sandcastle competition was pretty cool, shopping and eating ice cream at Coombs Market was fun, bumper boating was fun and of course, the swimming pool is always lots of fun. It wasn't just fun for us kids, the dads went golfing and the moms went to the spa so we all had a great weekend. Here are some photos that Mommy took. She wishes she took more.

Two for one.

Avi and Shyree deserve half fares for occupying only one seat.

There are the goats on the roof!
