6 years

We live in the original area of Powell River called Historic Townsite. Homes, like ours, date back over 90 years. Today was Townsite Days. We went to the park to see what activities there were.

The kids were able to fish for books. Caileigh immediately sat down to inspect hers.

Wakeful Mikayla

Sleeping Mikayla

We discovered that there was a bicycle Rodeo. My Dad graciously offered to take Aiden home to get his bike. Aiden had to ride his bike through various obstacles.

Here he is showing off his new stainless steel water bottle he earned!

We then walked down to the Patricia Theater. This is the oldest running theater in BC. When I was growing up, there was an organist who would play before the movie would start. There is so much character and history that doesn't show up in the picture I took but you can probably notice that the seats are originals.......not very comfortable. On the sides of the chairs are little holes and when I was a kid my Dad told me that if you talked during a movie, little people would come out and bite your ears. I was terrified to make a peep! Anyway, I digress......we went to the theater to watch a puppet show. The kids found it quite entertaining even though Mikayla was trying to see how much her voice could echo off the ceiling.

Today also marks our 6th Wedding Anniversary. True to tradition, we ordered pizza and will watch a movie. Tuesday, when Sean is off work, we are going out for dinner to the restaurant where our wedding lunch was served. I can't wait to spend some alone time with my best friend.
