Even Corey tried out the "Rollercoaster"...he diffently looks more affraid then fearless, handsfree Emma!

Kenny Reunion

We had a bit of a family reunion this week.
Corey and I had a wonderful weekend, spending time with my family.

My brother Aaron, his wife Erica and their children Tristan, Emma and Ava were home visiting from Kenya. My brother Adam and his oldest child Liam were visiting from Calgary (unfortunately his wife Ivy and daughters Livia and Laurel couldn't come). My sister Amanda, and her husband Justin and 5 children, Ezabella, Penelope, Cec, Dublin and Elliot came down from Summerside...and we all congragated at my parents house for a fun day of playing outside, bike riding, chatting, laughing and enjoying a great meal together.

Family is so important, and I feel very blessed to have such an amazing family...and for this short amount of time...having us all together is amazing!

The Olympic Flame on PEI

On Saturday afternoon the Olympic flame arrived on PEI. Corey and I traveled with the caravan for most of the weekend, following the Torch. Here are a few photos from our adventure.

Canada Games medalest for team PEI, Matthew Casely, carried the torch off the ferry in Wood Islands and onto PEI soil.

Here is me holding the Torch with one of the Torchbearers in Vernon Bridge.

Each torchbearer carried the flame for 300meters, and then handed the flame off to another torchbearer. Here is one of the handoffs on Sundy morning in North Rustico.

This was a once and a lifetime opportunity for many Torchbearers...and they were extremely excited to represent our country.

Here is Corey with the torch.

The PEI Olympic Spirit Committee where giving out Vancouver 2010 Red Mittens, to help encourage people to get out and cheer on the torchbearers...Here are Corey and I showing off our Red Mittens.

This is my favorite picture. I have know idea who it is...but he has great energy!

Corey with Olympian Kara Grant

In Cavendish, the Torch travelled with Canadian Hockey Player, Cassie Campbell, on board a horse and carriage with Anne and Matthew up to Green Gables House.

The Crowd in Cavendish was awesome! They were also celebrating the 135th birthday of L. M. Montgomery.

Corey with the Olympic Flame. When they made long pit stops (Cavendish was a lunch break), they lit the flame in a Olympic Cauldron....this one was right infront of Green Gables House.

After their lunch break, they lined up the next batch of runners who would be taking the torch through the streets of Cavendish. Don't they look great in their matching uniforms!

Well...those are just a few of our pictures... hope you enjoyed seeing a piece of our weekend. Don't forget to show your Olympic Spirit this winter, as Canada prepares to host the World in February!

To the Zoo

Last Saturday was a busy day. I had to work in the early morning a than at 10:30 my parents, my sister and her family and my bro Adam and his family all arrived at my house and we caravanned to Moncton to go to the Zoo to celebrate Cecilie’s birthday.

We decided to make it an adventure, we’d rent a 15 passenger van and all travel together. We had one too many people, so we ended up with a 15 passenger van and a single car.

Corey and I volunteered to set in the back of the van with the kids…and it was a fun ride! Lots of sing songs, animal sound games, and what’s a road trip without a few snacks for the drive.
The kids had an amazing time at the Moncton Zoo. Here are all the cousins together (we sure wish Tristan, Emma and Ava could have been there too).

They fed the goats:

We saw Lions, Tigers and Bears (…oh my…)

Here are a couple of our monkeys looking in on the monkeys at the zoo.

Liam really liked feeding the:

Here is the entire group of us.

Then we went to Ponderosa for supper and birthday presents, here is the birthday girl with Uncle Corey, ready to head out for supper.

All in all it was a wonderful day in Moncton!

Heritage Fair

Today is the Provincial Heritage Fair at the Confederation Centre of the Arts. Our neice, Taylor, was one of the winners at her school fair and qualified to display her amazing project at the Provicials.
Taylor did an amazing job! Here project was titled

"A Look Back in my Grandmothers time, the MikMac of PEI"

Taylor displayed artifacts from teh MikMac culture, explained the significants of their sweet grass, smudging ceremonies, and she even wore her own traditional Native dress, which she helped make a few summer ago

The fairs goes until 3pm today.

Congrats Taylor! We are so proud of you!

Spring has arrived

Spring has sprung and Summer is just around the corner!

Corey and I have had a wonderful the past few weeks cleaning up the yard, purchasing new ride-on lawn mower, and getting ready for summer in our spare time. I’m excited to fix up the flower beds in a couple weeks time, and seed some new grass in our yard.

This past weekend we have a wonderful day Sunday when we took one or our nieces, Cecilie, to the Family Day in Summerside. She got her face painted, played on the inflatable’s, went to a puppet show and a children’s concert, enjoyed the wonderful clowns and princesses, made her own princess crown, and just had a fantastic day!
