More Dance Class Videos!

Today at dance class Melissa was so excited to wear cute a fairy dress that she is borrowing from Amadora.

(thanks Amadora for sharing... you made one very happy girl!).

Tea with Nani

Melissa treasures her special time with Nani. When we drop her off, she is eager for us to leave so she can have Nani all to herself. She often cries when we return, she is never ready to leave.

Nani, sent me some photos that were taken of a recent play time / tea time together...

Aquarium with Cousin Luca

Last week into this week we had some special visitors come from Toronto for a visit... Uncle John (Ken's brother) and cousin Luca. We spent as much time with them as we could, as it has been quite awhile since we last saw them (over two years... see this post for pics from his last visit). 

On Monday we all went to the Vancouver Aquarium. 

Posing for the paparazzi which followed them with cameras everywhere! (Note Luca's little stuffed cow which went everywhere with him, and his prized Spiderman shirt which he wore non-stop!)

Spotting frogs...

Lunch time... 

Always my favorite, the jellyfish...

Cousins playing in the kidzone...

While the kids play, Nana takes the opportunity to take photos of her sons together... what good sports!

John taking a photo... concentrating on a tiny little fish in a shell...

The kids watching Mommy Beluga and her baby swimming together...

The kids got along so well, and had the cutest conversations. This is just a video of them watching the seals swimming around...

Done for the day. A few photos outside...

Dance Class

Last week Melissa started her first dance class. I took a bunch of pics, but the videos basically show it better as she was so cute in action!

Trick-or-Treat!

For the past week Melissa kept asking if tonight was the night she got to go Trick-or-Treating... "when I knock on doors and people give me candy!" What a great concept... only happens once a year!

Our sweet unicorn beginning her candy hunt...

Princess Kiera and Melissa... after each successful encounter they would announce "I got more candy!"

A visit to Candyman Kim's house... never a disappointment!

The Trick-or-Treating gang...

Dustin and his little stinker... Amadora! 

Back at home, the girls surveyed their loot.

October Party Day

Last school day of the month at Melissa's Preschool once again was a "Party Day". On top of that, it was the day before Halloween, so the kids got to wear their Halloween costumes to class.

Ready to go... practicing her unicorn poses!

Melissa keen on answering the question with her "quiet hand"...

Jumping to the "Photosynthesis" song. (note how into it the kids next her are!)

Melissa & Teacher Susan...

Bobs & Lolo in Sevenoaks Mall

Halloween morning, Melissa was in for an extra special treat, as her favorite singers Bobs & Lolo, were doing a show here in our very own Sevenoaks Mall! 

We got there early to make sure to get a great seat... and we secured front row center!

Princess Kiera & Melissa excited for the show to start!

Dancing to the music...

Lolo & Bobs singing "I Wish I Was A Jellyfish"...

Having so much fun!

Singing "My Bike"...

After the show, Melissa got a sticker from Lolo...

I took this great video clip, but am kicking myself for forgetting to turn the audio on...

Visit to The Apple Barn

Last week we enjoyed a family trip to The Apple Barn.

A family portrait... 

A hay ride through the orchards... it was mighty bumpy, and Melissa couldn't control her laughter!

Our little unicorn/pegasus... off to find the perfect pumpkin!

Posing with the pumpkins...

A silly unicorn...

Visiting the goats. Melissa was a little nervous that they were going to eat her! They certainly wanted to check her and her bright pink costume out!

Petting a nice big, calm sheep...
