Nana Comes to Visit!!

Halle was very excited to see Nana arrive on Tuesday evening!! Since Nana's arrival it has been non-stop fun! It actually resembles Christmas with all the treats and presents. We went to the zoo yesterday and today we went to a Children's Festival. Despite 15 minutes of rain when we first arrived everything turned out really well. Halle had a blast going from activity to activity. She listened to a group of Metis singers, made a kite, did some work with clay, created a necklace, netted some critters from the marsh and then went to a tent that was all about music! She played the sticks, bells, cymbals, a violin and a trombone (video to follow). We ended the morning by going for Korean food for lunch. Nana underestimated how much rice Halle will eat and lost half her plate to the rice monster!!

Did someone say 'skycap'?

Snack for Halle and a rest for Nana...

OMG! Another use for Tim's cups...liquid glitter glue!

Halle checking out the critters and wishing she had a dip net.

Hmmm...what is that word Mommy keeps saying...prodigy?!?!

Halle wanted something blue so the volunteer drew a moon, then Halle wanted a kitty cat face. She kind of looks like and extra from Cats. She should start singing 'Midnight' any moment now.

Oh, the poor volunteer had to hold the mirror for a full two minutes...twice! so Halle could take it all in!!
