"Before the Parade Passes By!"

Have any of you seen "Hello Dolly?" One of the best songs in the movie is "Before the Parade Passes By!" I just love that movie! If you've never seen it, you need to! It's a classic.:) Anyway, this was a picture of Max and Ellie Rose before the parade passed by. They were anxiously waiting and waving their little Canadian flags.:)

Ellie Rose on Canada Day

Canada Day was July 1st, so we had much to do for celebrating with the city here in Vancouver. Ellie Rose was decked out in her pink and black. Not really Canadian colors, but she pulled it off ok I think.;) I wish I could have grabbed my camera fast enough when she saw herself for the first time in that mirror wearing this outfit. She really did think she was the cutest thing she'd ever seen. She smiled and smiled at herself with a few twirls in between. Hilarious!!!

Thank You, Nonna!

Here's a picture of Max and his Nonna! The quality isn't great because I used my camera on my phone, but the smiles still shine through of course!:)

Cars 2

My mom ("Nonna") visited last week and took Max and me to see CARS 2! We were thrilled to get to go see it with her! I will say though that Max still likes the first one a whole lot better. Mama and I could barely keep up with it, much less a three year old!:)
