This is an action shot of the jello eating contest at cousin R's 9th birthday party in Vancouver. It was a lovely warm day (before the temperature kicked up a notch). We gave her a North Beach surf shirt, can't find that down in the city :)
We spent an evening at D&C's place. Here's another action shot of the sandal flinging contest... there is a little park behind their house and they were kicking off their shoes to go over the alley and up over the neighbours garage. No shoes were lost in the playing of this game. The boys also tried out the water balloon launcher and balloon rockets that D&C will take up to Princeton for the huge group camp out this summer.
Lounging on the new deck at D&C's place. AK came over for a visit too.
We spent a day at Kits watching the Beach Volleyball Tourney. Uncle B came out from Toronto to referee the event and soon-to-be Auntie J came from Cincinnati to hang with the family too. 
J and grandpa had a front row seat at centre court.
We have had fantastic weather here the past week. Every morning starts of foggy but it clears up by mid day. Last weekend we went out at low tide behind the elephant cage. B made a fire, the boys rode the machines and we waited for the fog to lift. Then I got a sunburn :(
And there were super low tides last week; perfect for crabbing. The wind was very light so there were no crashing waves to make the crab catching difficult. It was the best day yet.

And we have a freezer full of fish thanks to the two outings B has had. Here is B processing the fish in the backyard.
Here is the catch!
Now I will enjoy my last few lazy days until the waves of family start arriving in town all through August then it will be g0-go-go. From little cousin J at 1.5yrs old to Great Grandpa, we will have fun stuff to do with everyone!
