Happy Boxing Day

Thank you Gramma and Uncle Al for coming to see me.
I miss them already. It was so much fun for us,
we would sit and eat and talk for hours!
And since Gramma and Uncle Al stayed with us,
Mama and Papa and I slept in our sleeping bags on the floor.
It was like camping all over again!!!
I'm so worn out from all of the fun that
I've slept straight through the past 2 days.
I can't wait to see them again, I love visitors!

My First Camping Trip Day 3

Thank goodness TIFF is over for another year.
Now I can post more frequently since Mama and Papa
aren't hunting for C-list celebrities and I can get on the
computer to show you my pictures.
Mama got me this lifejacket just for camping.
But we didn't get a chance to try it out.
But I look good right?

On the last day I was a little bit anxious to leave
because I needed to go home and have a bath.
I was really smelly!
But the van wouldn't start because the battery was dead!

Eventually the guys got the van to start,
and we headed towards this hiking trail.
Look at me jumping off the ground
to try and catch the stick that Papa was going to throw!
I'm so athletic!

Somehow the hiking trail was uphill both ways.
I had a lot of fun camping with some of my
favourite people. Thank you!
I can't wait for next time!
Oh by the way, Happy Belated Birthday Uncle Brian.

My First Camping Trip Day 2

I know it's been a while from my camping Day 1 post,
Mama and Papa have been busy TIFFing
so I never get a chance to get on the computer.
But anyway here are my Day 2 pics from camping.

We brought so much stuff camping, but we
forgot to put some of it away at bed time. It was a good thing
that no one (especially the bears!) took any of our food.

Bear and I had a great time camping!
Sleeping in a tent was fun!

I was taking a nap in my tent when I heard a noise outside.
Turned out to be a chipmunk that
was stealing kibble from my dish.

I even helped out with the cooking.
Ok maybe I didn't really help out,
but I was willing to be quality control.
Unfortunately Uncle Brian saw through
my greediness and said no.

My First Camping Trip Day 1

I went camping for the first time over
the long September weekend.
I was there with 7 of my favourite people: Mama, Papa,
Uncle Brian, Thomas Ojichan, Auntie Ada,
Auntie Trish, and Uncle Dan.
I stole this corn on the cob from the grocery bag,
and no one suspected it was missing!
Until I threw it up - twice.

Uncle Brian and I bonded over deep
conversations about the meaning life.

Sitting by the fire was nice,
especially since it was so chilly!
I even got my own chair.

It got so dark outside that Mama had
to put a bicycle light on me so that I don't get lost.

How To Freak Out Your Parents

I really gave Mama and Papa a scare yesterday when I peed out some blood. Mama spotted it first in the morning, she said it looked a bit weird and crimson coloured. When she told Papa, he didn't believe her. So I had to pee for him again at lunch time. This time my pee was definitely red and I even made some blood clots too! You should have seen Papa's face!!! He was freaked out!

Turns out, I was passing stones. I'm ok now. Not so much bloody pee anymore.

Oh I'm going camping this weekend with my favourite people! And I even got a life jacket just for this trip. I'm so excited to test it out! I'll let you know how that goes when I get back! Have a great long weekend (last one of summer)!
