On days 17-22 of summer...

My true love and my boy stayed at home (and no, they're not the same person - but close!),
while my girls and I headed off to Drama Camp!

"Camp is for the Birds" was the title of the creation and we had a wonderful time learning the local birds, trees and vegetation in order to tell their story!  The children transformed into the birds and trees and guided the unwitting audience right into the centre of their story!

We braved a torrential storm and a power outage on the second to last day of camp (final rehearsal day) but things managed to come together in the end.  It does always seem to do that.

Swimming Every Day in Mabel Lake



Dinner time!

Time to hang with old and new friends.

 Staying entertained during the power outage




Power outage...means no dinner!
(except the camp cook is VERY resourceful and cooked her prepared
ham and scalloped potatoes over an open fire!!!)

On the seventh day of summer...

My true love, kids and me (I),
Finished level one of the new wall,
Played hockey,
Went swimming,
And attended the OM CD Release party!!

Komasket 2011



Reconnecting
Move, Sing, Stomp
Feet in sand
Levitate
Sing full mouth
Sound sliding
down
my
throat
and shaking the nargles out of my brain

Dramatic, Soulful, Enchanting
I move, shake, strut, and cha cha cha

Millions of stars wink me to sleep
Cool air wraps me in its blanket
Tantric drum rhythms tend to the sore places
in my soul.

Mom, what does the ocean taste like?

My kids had their first ocean swimming experience in Vancouver this summer. It was a gorgeous hot summer day and the water was perfect. They explored and paddled until they finally leapt in and started swimming. Their reactions are too funny!!

Can we swim?
Paddle harder!!
Cool seaweed!!!
Can we eat it?
Getting deeper...
Holding her breath and keeping the water OUT!!
Salty!!!!
