O CANADA!

...our home and native land. Now 2 more Parkers can sing those lines in truth. Just in time to (not really) celebrate Canada Day, Ella and Mattias received their Canadian Proof of Citizenship cards. Yay! Now we only have to get Jeff on-board and Canadians can continue our mission to take over the world. Muahh ha ha ha! (evil laugh) Seriously, though, it's very cool and allows us to next apply for their passports.

In other news, Mattias got his first tatoo...

got his first punk-rock hair-do...

and had his first "solo" (as in, sans Mama) tram ride...

For her part, Ella completed her first year of skolka and had her first solo pony ride...

We also determined that we can contain our largest child in a locker if the need arises...

And we made friends with some lemurs...

Hmmm...that about covers it. Just sitting around waiting to be an auntie. Maybe also in time for Canada Day? Bets, anyone?

Have a Keiths for me, eh?!
