Going Bananas!

Next August update... Aug 7th
We attended Madelyn's 3rd Birthday at Going Bananas. As soon as the kids got into the maze, it was a blurr.
Kiora was a little wary of the play structure, but soon warmed up when Celeste and Tyler joined in sliding down the tubes with her.

There was of course the requisite cake and prezzies.
Here is Madelyn pushing big sis outta the way so that she can blow out her candles all by herself. She loves Nemo... hence Nemo and Dory on her B'Day cake.

getting up to speed...

August was another busy month. We had some Llama drama on the 5th.

Kiora, Emma & Amy met at the Richmond Nature Park to celebrate Blueberries & to take a Llama for a walk. Well, the kids wanted to ride them actually, but we convinced them that the Llamas would prefer a lesser load.
Aunty Claire & Uncle Jason treated the trio to their walk in the park. Some confusion arose since we were expecting 3 Llamas but got one goat instead of one of the Llamas.
Emma picked out the Brown Llama, Amy got the Black Llama and Kiora got the goat. Oh wait a minute, Kiora decided to share Amy's Llama and let mummy walk the goat! Since I'm doing the blog, no one is going to get a rear view of me walking anything:)

There was also time to view the exhibits of frogs, snakes and bugs in the big hall, and the kids all got Blueberry tattoes.

They had great fun that afternoon and gave hugs all round to wish one another goodbye... and good napping.
