Warm Weather at Last...



YES! FINALLY!
It is park time again...
It is almost June 1st..
and some of the leaves are STILL not on the trees..
and it has been unbelievably windy this year...
and cold...
there has been the odd day in between
where there has been some warm weather.
Gracie people watched with mommy
while brother burns up some pent up energy....

All Kendal picked up was a wood tick...LOL!
That's what happens when you get old...

Heads or Tails Tuesday!

The theme/prompt for this week is:

HEADS - "Starts With A"

Make any kind of post using the theme/prompt "Starts With A." Your post can be anything as long as it starts with A. This is an easy one!

Ironically enough...I am already working on a theme starting with
A....Arts Festival...
as in Cathedral... (
arts Festival..where we have been all week)
so here are some more pictures..
oh..fancy that.
Pictures.
Here of all places...


There were lots of the Arts...
Love the colors...


Awwwwww...


There were even some Asses...
(This clown made some comment to someone that my husband
over heard...)
Nothing like a racist clown...



Amazing!
These guys can make ANYTHING out of metal...
There was even a wearable necktie...
Check out their website..
Metal Rose Maille




Awesome...


oh...and more of the arts...
This was the bride dance.

For more Heads or Tails Tuesday...
Visit here..

Friday Night...Arts Festival...

Friday night we went down to Holy Rosary Park, and went to watch the entertainment...
which consisted mostly of different dance groups...
but the last act was great...Fada Dance..



They are a group that dances with fire...
It was pretty awesome.
We tried to explain to Jeremy that we were going to watch some people dancing with fire,
but he just didn't get it...
until they started dancing..
and all of a sudden...I heard....
WOW.....in a hushed and awed voice......
"Mom...dancing with lights....Wow!"

Our only problem with the evening, was that it was
COLD...


Jeremy got tired of watching from his stroller...


Jeremy's Castles...





all cuddled under a winter coat and blankies..


This is a little long...but worth watching... I wish the video did justice to the dance...

Cathedral Arts Festival!

It's that time again...I can't believe a whole year has passed...
The Cathedral Arts Festival....
Kendal and I LOVE it...and go every year...
It's only one of the great things Regina has to offer..
Free events, entertainment and laughs for everyone for an entire week
in the Cathedral district...

We go to take in some of the unique crafts that local artisians have to offer,
and we people watch...
Big time on the people watching..there are some very unique individuals there....
This year was no different...
and the weather was the best yet!
Especially considering that this spring has been one of the coldest yet.
We have gone for seven years, and most years it rains..
but this year it was 22 degrees and breezy!





The name amused me...



and I am guessing..this must be Donna..
and she DOES have balls..
of all shapes and colors..


Check out the penny ball...
These are decorative, and meant for use outside in your garden,
or inside in the winter...
Very creative.




Glass by Brenda L. Stankewich...
of bLS Fused Glass.
Contact me if you want to reach her...




This guy has been doing his spray paint creations at the Festival
for a couple of years now...
He does beautiful work,
but our only complaint was the fumes,
and the fact that there was a food booth right across the street...
mmmm...African food and paint fumes...






Amazing Creations...

If I did have a complaint about this years events..
it was that there seemed to be far less buskers then normal..
and far less entertainment.
Expecting colder weather maybe?

x-rated post....


Self Portrait...
(He loves getting a hold of our camera...)


Jeremy LOVES clocks. Loves them.
He calls digital clocks 8 and 9...
I don't know why...but he does..

and he calls analog clocks with the hands...
well....clocks...
only ... that is NOT how it comes out.

Now put yourself in my husbands place..
in the men's change room...
at the swim pool....
Jeremy sees a clock while they are changing...
and in his loudest little boy voice...
he squeals..
"LOOK DADDY....C***!
My husband...
"Yes, Jeremy...your right it is a cLLLock...
It's a nice cLLLock...."

I don't think he has ever changed so fast....

Fast forward to McDonalds a couple days ago...
We are eating...
and Jeremy starts yelling...
F***, F***, F***
and not quietly, I might add...
but rather...
at the top of his squeaky little boy voice...

Parents are staring...
and for some reason...
every other person in the restaraunt is quiet..
Except my son..
F**** Mommy!
I said to Kendal..
Just ignore it..if we don't react...maybe it will stop...

It did.
10 minutes later.


when we figured out that F*** was fork...
and the poor kid wanted one to eat his fries....sigh....

oh...and if you hear him say Sh**....it is SHIRT.
yeah...
You laugh now people...
Wait till it happens to you....

:)

Wordless Wednesday!


All I was trying to do was catch a picture of Spiderboy with his face paint and pjs...
but he decided to "be" spiderman....
I wish I had been video taping instead of taking pictures...'
but I was laughing too hard to change the setting... :)
The pictures just don't do justice to the behavior....
