Day 15 to 18

Day 18- Parksville
When we woke up the ocean (Don and jan's house over looks the ocean) was calm so we decided to go Kyaking. I was a little nervious about going on the open ocean, but as soon as I got in the water I loved it. There is someing about being over the ocean that is exilerating. Bryan was going to take me to Cortney to see my aunt and Grandma but with him being sick John was nice enough to take me with some of the others. While I was there my cousin Elizabeth phoned so I got to talk to her to. Gradma was just amazed with both the girls, Sanora was playing shy for some reason. For Dinner we went to Roger and Michelles place accross the street (Bryan's other aunt and uncle) after dinner they where playing music so Sanora kept dragging people in to dance, it was awsome. There was a bunch of us dancing in circles in the living room, with Sanora being the lead dancer. She was definantly in her elements. Tomorrow we leave for Vancouver to expand our adventures.

Day 17- Parksville

In the morning we went to cums where we got lunch. Some stayed in line while I took Sanora and around the market. We used some of the money that Mara sent with us for the girls there. I got some noise makers for Sanora and Blocks for counting. We got Mya a little game that she seemed to be obsessed with while we where there. Sanora got to go on a horse ride which she absolutely loved, she was grinning from ear to ear. We had a great night with more amazing food. Yummy sammon and the natorious bird on a beer can. Bryan was really sick so he had his dad John take him to the doctor, it ended up he had strep throat.

Day 16- Vancouver to Parksville

We got up at 5 am, not fun but we did it. Sienna woke up with the biggest smile on her face like it was the best sleep of her life. In 15 minutes we where out the door...us can you believe it. We got on the feiry at about 6, with beautiful fog everywhere. When we where getting off the feiry we where on the second deck and the car at the front couldn't find his keys. After about an 30 min wait they had us back up off the ramp. Sanora thought it was fun. We went to a cute resuraunt for breakfast and with amazing eggs benidect. We then drove to Parksville and hung out on the beach for neither Don or Jan where at the house yet. After don arrived we brought our bags in and especially with Sanora's crankyness we took a good nap. Sanora was so happy to see Grandpa and Grandma. After dinner Mya and Bill arrived. I put Sanora in the bath and Mya wanted to go in too. They where so cute together.

Day 15- Vancouver

Bryan had stayed the night before at friends house (chris and Callie's) but was home first thing in the morning. I woke up when Larry and Gloria was going to work, so Larry got coffee all ready for me. We went for lunch with Bryan's aunt Lynn, and had the best salad I had ever had. Bryan's dad and stepmom wants to take Sanora to the states so right after lunch we had a letter all ready and went to the Notary to get the letter notarized. We finally made it back into North Van and got groceries because Bryan wanted to make dinner for Larry and Gloria. Bryan made an amazing dish (can't remember what it was called) with strips of beef with sea food in the middle with corn on the side. It was the same corn that my dad had sent with us so we where considering having them fill out comment cards to send to my dad,lol. We talked for a bit before hitting the rack for an early morning.
