Sunday we had a visit with James, one of our travel mates who lives in Edmonton but is here for a teaching seminar. Unfortunately, Beth, Helena and Ava weren't here with him but we had a great visit and are glad James took time out of his busy schedule to pay us a visit. We haven't seen James since we returned from China so it was wonderful to see him again.
James and Bryn.Tuesday we went to our second Tumbleweeds class with Shea and Caia. It's difficult to get a photo of the girls together since they're always running around, which is good since that's the whole point of the class! Caia is the quicker of the two and is a lot more adventurous, but Bryn is much braver now, even after just two classes. She'll actually plop herself down on her butt and even walked on the balancing beam with a bit of help from me.
Some shots from gym class.Yesterday I took Bryn to see the Backyardigans. I wasn't sure if she'd be too young for it or if the big crowd and wacky characters up on the stage might scare her but she sat through the entire show and had a great time. She sang along and clapped and danced and was quite interested in the "lady snail" who was actually an alien in the show but I guess the antennas on her head had Bryn thinking something else (and she obviously wasn't paying very close attention to the story line). I didn't take my camera because they always say taking photos isn't allowed but of course all the other parents were busy taking pictures through the whole show, darn it. Oh well, another photo for the album in my mind.
Backyardigan tickets, $65; souvenir t-shirt, $20; parking, $6 (plus 30 minutes waiting to get out of the parking lot with one very impatient child stuck in her car seat); having a great time with my daughter, priceless.

That sounds like an AWESOME time! Love the pic of Bryn in her t-shirt.
I wish we had a "gym class" around here for K to go to. She'd love that. It's awesome that Caia and Bryn get to do that together...
Only 5 months and a bit and it's July!!
Yeah, a new post... and here I was just about to start complaining! We were so jealous of James. Those gym pics look just like our gym place, too funny, you could just sub out the two little ones. Imagine if all 4 of them could go together! I love the last comments about the show, too funny. Glad you two had a great time.
You did the Backyardigans show?! Wow, I was sooo tempted when I saw that they were coming but cheaped out when I saw the price of tickets (and with the uncertainty about Claire sitting for the show). Good for you! That is Claire's favourite show by far. She calls them all "spies" because of the first episode she ever saw.
I love the pics of the two girls in gymnastics together! I especially love the one of Bryn crawling through the tube! Party on, girls!
What a sweet girl your little Bryn is. It's so nice that her and Caia have a close relationship and get to do such fun things together. Wow, getting to see the Backyardigans..how fun is that. Your t-shirt is too cute. Hope the rest of your week is just as fun:)
Love the Backyardigans t-shirt. I'm glad you had a fun time. I'm glad we're doing gymnastics together. Watching the girls is my entertainment for the week. That tunnel picture turned out great.
