The girl loves to dance.

 I had some fun trying out the video feature on my camera this weekend- don't mind the shaky camera work and focussing issues- I definitely need more practice- but thought it captured how much she loves to dance so well.

July, so far (get ready for a big share!)

We've had a great summer so far- enjoying the warm weather that finally arrived this month. We've been house & dog sitting twice (love having a yard!), gone to Parksville for Claire's Papa Ralph's 90th birthday, and enjoyed lots of beach visits. I've been taking a photography course which has resulted in Claire being subjected to even more photos than usual- her latest question "Momma, why do you have to take SO many pictures!!!?". Here are a few favourites from this month:
Dance lessons with Papa Ralph




Bubblegum cupcakes at Crumsbys

Claire told me this is her favourite :)




Blowing kisses (above) and inspecting dead crabs (below)


The everpresent Ava. Claire recently told us that Ava's dad is Michael, and he works on the Coho Ferry. She also has two moms: Lisa and Cora. (coincidentally, also the names of two girls in her class)



Canada Day Parade!



Spinning in her princess dress that Auntie Alexa and Auntie Jane gave her in Parksville.
