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 :)
