On Saturday afternoon We went to Elsye and David’s wedding at Four Seasons Rotary Park, and then they had the reception, cake cutting and the wedding dance at the Ohaton hall. In between the ceremony and the reception Nikki, Kathleen, and her husband Davin and I went out for Starbucks for coffee. I gave Evelyn a stuffed elephant that she loved to look at. We headed out for the reception at the Ohaton hall. We heard some speeches from the bridal party and the parents of the bride and groom! Then we had dinner. The wedding cake cutting and a game Who knows the bride and groom the best. We danced with everyone and we had a perfect evening to celebrate Elsye and David! Best wishes to the newlyweds.

Then on the Sunday my family celebrated my birthday. We played outside games and had pizza, with homemade lime cheesecake that was amazing, probably the best cheesecake ever! I did not open my birthday presents until my birthday! On my birthday my brother Joel smoked our beef for dinner with some potatoes and salad. Our grandpa came for birthday cake. We decided to finish our lime cheesecake for dessert! For birthday presents I got some butterfly PJS and some shower gel and lotion that has butterflies on the bottle. Joel and Ashley gave me the Shaina Twain CD. My mom gave me a wallet but she’s going to get me a different one. Grandpa and Shandy got a nail gift certificate for studio nails. My friend Kelsey and her boyfriend Joshua with their girls came over on my birthday and I got some jewelry kits that organize stuff for your jewelery. It was a pretty good birthday and I got really spoiled with presents. On Saturday afternoon we went bowling with my friends and my roommates to celebrate my birthday!

I got her a Christmas mug says “happy pawlidays”, hot chocolate and coffee with an picture of cross stitch with flowers in a heart, and I gave her mom Victoria the same one… crossing my fingers they’re won’t fight over their Christmas presents. My best friend forever Teresa spoiled me with colouring books, word search books, markers, the Anna of Green Gables books, paint, and paint brushes. She also got a really beautiful blanket!

For Canada Day in the morning my dad and I went to the festivals at the museum and we tried to do the scavenger hunt of games , but they were all lower down to the ground and games I couldn’t play because I’m in a power wheelchair. I got to do the egg toss and it landed on my seat belt and broke. I got to play X and O’s and an word searches about Canada day. Then, in the afternoon my dad and I went to the car show downtown and looked at the fancy cars. Later on I coloured some Canada day themed pictures and put them on the window! We printed out some name tags that were maple leafs for our bedroom doors. In the middle of the night I could hear the fire works in my bedroom but I didn’t watch them. Happy Canada Day! My mom showed me my butterfly solar light , lit up in the darkness of the night! It’s so beautiful and pretty lighten up in the darkness sky!

On Monday morning we were supposed to have “fun in the park” due to the weather, it was inside the community room as it was a bit rainy outside. We made kites and decorated them with stickers.

On Tuesday morning I finished the poster ” Hearing Impairment”. I will show you it in a future blog! In the afternoon on Tuesday, I got blood work done and I got my ID done, trying to get everything checked off the list. Then, mom and I sat outside enjoying her beautiful flowers. On Thursday afternoon we had a wonderful tour at the art Center by Co-op. I painted the background sky blue colour, then I painted some white clouds, and then we blow dried the crayons on the bottom half of the canvas for stems and hot glued paper flowers. It was an super super fun art craft class and it was pretty easy to do too. That’s June and a bit of July, I can’t wait to see what’s in the next couple of months, I hope you are having wonderful summer so far.
