My Tiny Ballerina

Elyse and Brooklyn on their first day of ballet. They were too cute together. It was everyday for a week and Elyse LOVED it. We will definitely be signing her up in the fall for lessons.
On the last day we were able to come in and watch. Caitlin and I were both surprised how much they actually learned and how well they listened.
The princess theme was right up Elyse's alley. They got to wear tiaras and have magic wands
Paige was pretty interested in watching. She was good sport everyday waiting for Elyse and hanging out.
This was last day celebrations. Elyse is always thrilled if she gets her own Slurpee. I was so proud of her in this class. I thought that parents would go in but it was just for the kids, she left me with no problem, she loved having a teacher and doing her own thing. She is getting so big and it was weird to see her on her own, I think we'll be signing up for a few things in fall, she really loves the interaction with the other kids.

Paige and Elyse singing

I love Paige singing at the beginning of this, I don't know how to edit the other parts out - oh well! We were coming back from a day of sun and fun and ice cream at Eau Claire.

More Stampede Fun

My other little cowgirl. Paige is also getting in the spirit! She loves the pancakes.
Heading out to a stampede breakfast. Our idea of stampeding has changed alot since kids, we used to be heading out for the night, now most of our stampeding is done by noon :)
Connor and Elyse at the Market Mall breakfast. They were so cute together holding hand the whole time through the mall. They really are best friends.
Elyse and Tyler, enjoying some music and sun.
Paige loving the free breakfast. She just looks like such a big kid in these pictures.

Yahoo!!!

Paige and Mommy and Elyse. We went to a Stampede BBQ and they had "hayrides" the girls loved it. They are really enjoying all the stampede fun, as is their Mom!
Daddy and Elyse checking out the action down at the grounds. We took Elyse on Sunday and it was crazy busy. She loved watching the rides and having treats!
Chris and Elyse checking out the native village. Elyse was pretty interested in the Tee-pees - it must be her heritage coming though :)
Getting ready to leave after a long day. We left Paige with Grandma and Grandpa, she had a great day of her own, she went to 2 parks AND a Stampede breakfast all with Grandpa - thanks Dad!
My little cowgirl. Elyse loves excitment and it has pretty much been non-stop for the last little while. We stayed home yesterday and she was sooo bored, she loves to go and do, I think we've done that to her. I love to go out and do things too and she is getting much easier to take places, we have a lot of fun together.

Canada Day

Here are Paige, Connor, Coleman and Elyse waiting for the parade in Airdrie to start.

Bruce and Alida had a Canada Day party and there were so many kids, it was alot of fun!
