Hangin with Uncle Kel

One of those quick snaps..

Must we?

Mom, do you really need to do this to me on a semi-regular basis??

I really have no clue why I find the tub shots amusing...or just messing with his hair...

"gardening"

Here I am! Helping mum out... LOL

It's all about the dirt. Moving it around. Getting it down my shirt!

Hanging with the rellies

Yup, Auntie Sue is pretty 'spesh!


Another little toy to get underfoot! Brandon loves little figurines to play with - he has a whole troop that includes ducks, giraffes, cats, dogs, pigs, elephants, lions.. the whole zoo!


With Gramma and G'G'

Parksville...

I guess that Mother Nature did not get the memo that Spring has Sprung.
This is what we woke up to for our day at the beach in Parksville. Needless to say, when life hands you lemons...

Yup. So cute. Totally biased.

Ok, so maybe the memo got out a few hours later.. in a little place called French Creek we wandered in to this really cool fresh fish store and got the fixings for a seafood pasta.. NUMMY! Talk about one extreme to the other, eh?

The Inner Harbour

Spring?

Aside from the fact that it isn't raining, there isn't much going on to let you know that it is truly spring. We went out for a walk and to find a suitable dinner location, and nearly froze our collective arses off! Bundled up didn't help with the cutting wind. The plum blossoms (the pretty pink ones) have not even revealed themselves yet!!!

Our lovely provincial legislature buildings.

In Totem Park (after a nice fresh coat of paint).


The Empress. Ah, such a lovely place to stay (although not this time).


A cool cat feasting on his first quesadilla at Santiago's. It never ceases to amaze me how well Brandon seems to do in restaurants, he is calm, plays with the crayons, may get in to a wee bit of trouble, he flirts with the waitresses (they all think he is just so cute).

In Victoria

Here we are, all ready to hit the pool! He isn't a wee bairn anymore!
