Last week brought the last summer camps of summer 2012 for Blake and Emerson! And they both had an absolute BLAST!! Emerson enjoyed Jitter Bugs at the YMCA. One of the camp leaders was a preschool teacher last year and she new 4 of the other 'campers'!! They went swimming 3 out of 5 days, went on nature walks, made crafts and had a dance party on the last day! Blake looooved his hockey camp!! They had 1/2 an hour of dry land training every morning, which mostly consisted of sprints, soccer, stretching, obstacles, etc. Blake really, really enjoyed this part of his camp! I think he will definitely be asking to play soccer this spring, as he told us he loves soccer and wanted to practice playing almost every afternoon after his camp!! The on ice portion of the camp was 45 min. Blake also enjoyed this part and it was amazing to see improvements in just a few days! He is stopping a lot better and his backwards skating was so much better on the last day! His favorite part of on-ice, was the game played at the end of the session! He told us that the greens (a few of the boys nicknamed the green jersey team the Christmas tree's!) and the greys (they nicknamed this team the Quicksilver team) each won 2 games and tied one, so overall it was a tie!! He was quite pleased with this ;)
Our afternoons were also quite busy, last week! Blake, Emerson and I did some back to school shopping on Monday afternoon. We bought most of Blake's school supplies and 1 pair of shoes! He still needs 1 more pair of shoes and Emerson needs a new pair as well. Back to school shopping is so much fun! I LOVED this time of year, as a kid! I was always excited to go back to school and had so much fun shopping for supplies and a few new outfits :) On Tuesday afternoon, Cal took Blake and Emerson to the Telus World of Science. As always, they had a lot of fun!! Wednesday afternoon, Lindsay and Connor arrived! We had a great time together!! Thursday afternoon Lindsay, Connor, Blake, Emerson, my Mom and myself went to the Valley Zoo. It was a fun afternoon, complete with a visit to the new Arctic exhibit, a Lucy sighting (Emerson's favorite animal at the Valley zoo!), visiting Blake's best friends the banana monkeys, ice cream and a train ride! We are so glad Lindsay and Connor could come for a visit :) Connor is growing and changing and is soooo cute and adorable! Not to mention a very good baby and happy as can be :)
This weekend has been all about the Canadian Derby marathon!! Blake participated in the ABC Run for Kids on Saturday afternoon. It consisted of 6 active body stations and a fun run!! Blake had so much fun! He ran his little heart out and was so proud of himself, as are we and many of our friends and family!! He also raised $285.00 for KidSport! Thank you to everyone who donated to this worthy cause and supported Blake! Thank you to Grandma and Grandpa D for coming out to cheer on Blake and to Grandma Bev for the phone call, we really appreciate it :) We have a feeling this is the first of many races for Blake!! Next year, we may make it a family event with Cal running in the marathon, I may try and take on the 5 or 10 k race and all 3 kids participating in the ABC Run!!!
Cal ran in the half marathon this morning (21.1 km). This is the third half marathon he has ran in and he did great! His finishing time was 1:55:27, his best time to date! He finished 79th out of 162 runners amongst males, aged 30 to 39, out of all males he finished in 271st place out of 554 runners and overall he finished 398th out of 1261 runners who completed the race! I'm so proud of him :) He plans to run 1 or 2 more half marathons and then hopes to train for a full marathon. The training for a full marathon is so time consuming, it is hard with a full time job and 3 little ones! Not to mention a 'honey-do' list from his honey ;) lol!!! But hopefully he can fit it in because he has wanted to complete a full marathon for a few years now. This event was so well organized and so much fun! Although we've never been to a Running Room event that wasn't a huge success!
Another fantastic week of summer, come and gone! We're looking forward to this week - a playdate with the Stony Plain Cameron's and visiting friends and family in Grande Prairie this weekend!
Have a great week everyone :)
Love The Cameron's

We're going to the zoo, zoo, zoo ..
We had a blast at the Calgary Zoo on Wednesday! It was a long day but the kids, as usual, travelled like champs :) We left our house around 7:15 am and returned home at 10 pm!
It was so nice to see Carmen, Darren, Dylan, Kerri and Kailey and spend the day with them. We just wish Kourtney would have been with us as well but summer jobs tend to take precedent over summer vacations when you are a high school student ;)
Blake had a lot of fun with Dylan, he really looks up to his older cousin, which is very sweet :) Dylan had fun with Blake and was so good with Em and Reese too, helping Reese push the stroller and looking out for both the girls. All the kids enjoyed the zoo and running around together! Blake said his favorite animal was the grizzly bear and Emerson said her favorite was the giraffe! Reese would run up to a display and turn around and look at us, saying, "Animals!! Animals!!" LOL!!
From the zoo, we made a quick stop at Cross Iron Mills for supper and a little shopping. We didn't buy a thing though! We need to make a trip there by ourselves, sans kiddo's!!! Although having the kids in tow definitely helps our bank account balance ;)
This weekend, I am attending a former co-workers wedding on Saturday and on Sunday we are going to celebrate my BFF Lindsey's son's 3rd birthday and her daughter's 1st birthday! And Blake needs a new hockey stick (his stick from last season is a good foot too short!!) and possibly new skates ... AGAIN! That boy is growing far too fast!
Next week, both Blake and Em are in morning camps. Blake is in a hockey camp and Emerson is in a YMCA camp. Cal took the week off and Lindsay and Connor are coming to visit for 2 nights :) It shall be a wonderful week!! I can't wait to see Connor!! We haven't seen him since June and I'm sure he's changed and grown. They change so fast in the first year :s Looking forward to seeing my favorite sister as well ;)
Have a great weekend, everyone!

The Princess Ball
On Friday, Cal, Blake, Reese and I attended Emerson's Royal Ball :) It was a lot of fun and so, so cute to see Emerson having a blast!!! The princesses decorated cookies for their guests and enjoyed a tea party, followed by pin the tiara on the princess and a dance! Emerson had such a great time at Once Upon a Princess camp! I have been very impressed with the City of Edmonton's summer day camps. Next year, Blake and Em say they would like to attend the Superhero and Princess camps again! We'll see if that changes throughout the year ;)
We had a super fun August long weekend! Saturday we spent a large majority of the day at the Hudson park/spray park. The Parenteau's joined us and the kids had fun splashing and playing!
Sunday, we headed to Wabamun Provincial Park beach. We arrived there around 10 am and the beach was already starting to fill up! By 11 the beach was packed! The weather was great and we had a lot of fun! Playing and swimming in the lake, building sand castles and playing at the park. The kids were so good, not one argument, or meltdown ;) The love the beach so much!!! We might try to squeeze another beach day into the calendar, before September!
We had a lower-key day today. I took Blake to Ice Age 4 at the theatre. I wasn't really impressed with this move and thought Madagascar 3 was much better and more suitable for a 5 yr old! But Blake enjoyed it and did not get much of the more 'adult' humour ... which is good!
We are all very excited for Wednesday, when we will be driving to Calgary for the day to meet Cal's older sister and her family at the Calgary zoo!!! I'm really looking forward to seeing the Francis family and visiting the zoo! The kids are soooo excited ... Blake can not wait to see the gorilla's and Emerson is pumped to see the penguin's (and their Aunt, Uncle and cousins of course!)!! Blake does not want to see any alligators or crocodiles! lol!
Have a great week, everyone :)

Fun times!
~ Once home from 'Once Upon a Princess' camp today, Emerson tells me that she invited all her friends to her house for a bubble party! There's going to be a bubble cake with a candle in it, lots of bubbles and Bashful, Sneezy and Dopey are going to be there!!! And of course she has to show me her new dance moves, twirling around in her tutu ;)
~ Blake has told us he is building himself a police car. Like the real thing, he says but more his size! This morning after dropping Em off at camp, Blake, Reese and I went to the local Dodge dealership to get an oil change and tire rotation done on our van. Blake was SUPER excited because he wanted to look at all the tires and pick out 4 for his police car ;)
~ Reese is the parrot of all parrot's! EVERYTHING that Blake and Em says, she copies! And it's hilarious how she 'competes' with them ... they (as many of you know!!) are not quiet and are rarely calm! lol! They get very excited when talking and very animated - hands flying around, jumping around, etc. Reese gets right in there with them, trying to out-do them! It's so funny! She is also very possessive ... she is often heard saying, "Dat mine?" She asks this question a bazillion times a day about nearly everything - toys, water bottles, shoes, clothes, etc, etc! Thankfully she's picked up on the 'sharing' rules and is okay when we tell her no ;)
Blake had a blast at his Pedalheads bike camp, last week. Cal and I were completely shocked when the coaches took Blake's training wheels off his bike on the first day of camp!! We knew they might try to take them off but expected that to happen later in the week! Blake was very excited and practiced hard the entire week - at camp and at home with Cal and I! He hasn't mastered riding a 2-wheeler yet but refuses to put the training wheels back on and wants to keep practicing! His new bike is quite big, although fits him great, but it is heavy and so he's learning to hold it up! The bike camp was very well ran, they rode bikes but also played games and learned about bike safety. Every Friday is a theme day and last Friday's theme was the Olympics. Blake colored Olympic rings and pinned them to his shirt! They ended up on his bike by the end of the morning!
Emerson, Blake and I met my Mom at Capital Ex on Thursday afternoon. We worried it was going to rain, but the rain held off! We took in the Strawberry Shortcake show, had fun in the Family Fun Zone, splurged on some yummy fair grub and Blake took a spin on a ride! Blake wasn't very impressed with the Strawberry Shortcake show and we weren't sure how Em felt about it until after the show when she showed Grandma and I her dance moves, "just like Strawberry Shortcake!!"
Friday, after bike camp, Cal met my Mom and Dad and they took Emerson and Blake to their lake lot for the weekend! Reese, Cal and I enjoyed our time together, visiting the St. Albert Farmer's market, shopping for carpet (what a mess :s) and even pampered ourselves with 2 dinner's out ;) Blake and Em had a blast!! Emerson went quadding for the first time and Blake, being an old hand at the whole quadding thing, loved when Grandpa let him operate the throttle!! Cal, Reese and I picked them up on Sunday afternoon. We were surprised when Reese tried on one of the kids quad helmets and even more surprised when she wanted to go for a quad ride! Cal took her and she loved it!! Blake and Em were far more cautious at her age! Thank you Grandma and Grandpa D for the fun weekend :)
Em's been enjoying her princess camp this week! She is having a blast and it is so cute to see all the little princesses, having fun together! The sign on the hall door reads, "Welcome to our castle. Princess fun from 9 to 11:30 am!" And the leaders address all the girls as "Princess", i.e., "Okay Princesses, it's time to line up!" Adorable and right up Princess Emerson's alley ;) Today she brought home an invitation to a princess ball, on Friday!! Parents are welcome! Cal and I can't wait to attend :) While everything interests Blake (he wants to do it all - every sport, art class, guitar and drum lessons, etc, etc), Emerson's interests are not as broad (yet!) and she doesn't always enjoy herself when trying something new. So we are glad she is enjoying this camp and having a blast!! She's also told us repeatedly that she wants to take swimming lessons again, which is great! We will sign all 3 kids up for fall lessons. Emerson has also expressed an interest in dance classes, so I've been calling around trying to figure out the best location. I think I've found the one, I just have to take the plunge and register her! I'd love for her to take Ukrainian dancing, as my sister and I did when we were young, but their locations and times don't really work for us right now. The class we're looking into is a combination of Jazz, Ballet, Tap and Hip Hop and is once a week for 45 minutes. We hope she'll love it, I think she will as she is always dancing around the house and showing us her 'moves' :)
We loved having Cal home for just over 2 weeks! He headed back to work on Monday morning :( But we get him back again for 4 days, as August long weekend is this weekend! We hope to have a beach day, either Saturday or Sunday depending on the weather and maybe do some fishing at the stocked pond in Morniville!
We hope you are enjoying your summer and have a fabulous long weekend :)

Summer lovin'
We are enjoying our summer!!! So much going on, so much fun :) I think point form will make this post a bit shorter, so here we go:
- Blake had a blast at his buddy Evan's house! We will be having Evan over to our house, soon!! And we have to arrange a play date with his friend's Zander and Derek, both from preschool too! Blake is such a social little boy, he loves playing with his friends and making new friends :)
- I had a great time in Calgary, with my friend Lindsey! It was SO nice to catch up with one of my best friends. The last time we've had more then a few hours together (sans kiddo's!) was a long, long time ago!! You know you have a best friend for life, when you live hours and 100's of km's apart and pick up right where you left off, and I am lucky to find that in two very special ladies. I feel very blessed!! The Garth Brooks concert was AMAZING. Honestly, best concert I've ever been to. Hands down. You know how at the end of a really good concert, the fans are all standing and chanting and sometimes pounding on the metal bleachers for an ovation?? This concert, the fans were doing that the ENTIRE time! It was a 2 1/2 hour standing ovation and it was crazy!! Even Garth was overwhelmed! Steve Warner (Holes in the floor of heaven) and Trisha Yearwood also sang (She's in love with the boy and Walkaway Joe). A-M-A-Z-I-N-G ... and it didn't hurt being 7th row on the floor!!! I'm so glad I went! The Stampede was a lot of fun too!! The city was so busy and so alive, the atmosphere and all the people were so happy and friendly! So fun!! But I missed my family and was very pleased with the huge running hugs and "Mommy! Mommies home!!" that I received when I walked in the door :)
- Cal's vacation started on the 12th, he had a good few days home with the kiddo's while I was away! They had fun at the splash park and park and playing with Dad but I had no doubt Cal would be fine with the 3 of them, I'm lucky that way :)
- Last week we had a family picnic at the park and did some running around (got a quote for new carpet - yippeeeee!!!) and got ready for our 3 nights away at Whitesands Resort! We rented a 2 bedroom cabin and just got back tonight. We had a really, really good time. It was nice to spend that time together, away and not at home where working on our laptops, laundry, house cleaning and the other day-to-day grind 'stuff' can get in the way!! The kids had a blast, playing on the beach, in the water and at the parks and the weather was fantastic. Cal and I enjoyed sitting around the fire every evening! I'm so glad we did this!
- This week, Blake is in a 1/2 day bike camp through Pedalheads. He's looking forward to it!! He loves riding his bike and has recently started going around the block all by himself ;) He's even mentioned trying to ride without training wheels! Cal is off this week as well (he's off for 18 days in total!! Lucky us!) so will take Blake tomorrow morning.
- Thursday, Em and plan to take Blake to bike camp, pick him up and then head to Capital Ex to see Strawberry Shortcake! We might do lunch at Taste of Edmonton too!!
I thought with the sale of our travel trailer, our summer would be a bit slower but so far we've been quite busy!! We'll be slowing down a bit in August ;)
Hope you've had a great few weeks, we'll talk to you again soon!!

Heat wave!
Feeling hot, hot, hot!!! We've been getting some really nice weather! We had a few very hot days last week, this weekend was near +30 both days and the beginning of this week is going to be the same. I was so glad we were at the lake this weekend, as I find the high temp's more bearable when you can be in the water!! The kids bedrooms are SO hot, I feel so bad for them. It's like walking into on oven. But they don't seem to mind it, they haven't complained anyway! We bought new fans for their rooms, which do help a little bit. Our room is pretty hot too but we can leave our window open through the night so that really helps. I don't leave the kids windows open, in fear that they would rise with the sun ;)
Blake had an absolute BLAST at his "Heroes in Training" camp, last week. He made a superhero cape, shield, hat, belt and mask! I was very impressed with the leaders and how well the camp was organized and ran! I knew my gf Jodi's 2 boys and Blake's friend Evan would be in the camp but on the first morning I realized I knew the majority of the kids in the camp from one place or another! Blake's next camp is in 2 weeks, he and Em are going to a bike camp!
This weekend, we were at our friend Christa's family cabin at Skeleton Lake. We had a fabulous time, soaking up the fun and hanging out with great friends! The kids had a blast, although Reese was not feeling well. Blake and Em are little fish and spent a large majority of their time in the water, swimming, splashing, floating, rowing the dingy and tube :) There was also a bouncy house, water sprinkler and many other fun toys in the back yard of the cabin! I use the term cabin loosely ... this cabin is really a house! Running, hot water, central vac! lol! If I ever win the lotto, the first thing I am doing is buying a cabin!!! Never mind towing a trailer around and packing and unpacking all the time - a cabin is where it's at ;) Thank you Parenteau's and Krywiak's for sharing your little piece of paradise with us, we had a blast and can't wait to do it again!!
Reese woke up not feeling well on Friday. She seemed really congested and was coughing. Friday night she sounded terrible, so we thought we'd better have her seen by a Dr. before we went to the lake on Saturday morning. I took her to a medi-centre early Saturday morning. We thought she had croup and the Dr. confirmed that. He gave her a steroid and a inhaler to open her airways. It helped a lot with the croupy cough but she still is very congested. She's not sleeping very well because of the coughing and chest congestion :( Hopefully she starts feeling better, really soon!

Today, Blake is going on his first ever play date without Mom or Dad!! He was invited to Evan's house and I am dropping him off and not going in. Other play dates in the past have always involved Mom and/or Dad and at least 1 sister!!! Blake is very excited and I'm sure he'll have a blast but I feel like he's growing up too fast!
Have a great Monday, everyone! Stay cool ;)
xoxo
