Last night we took the kids to the park to celebrate Saskatchewan's 100th birthday. We watched some young local talent hit the stage at 5:30 and then listened to Hoja, they were a lot of fun. They are a group of young Saskatchewan guys singing acapella.
We listened to a great performance from Doc Walker. Aren danced every single song they played and was quite upset when they were done playing. We thought about getting an autograph for him but the line up was not something Bill or I wanted to fight.
We watched a man twirling fire on pieces of chain. It was fabulous to watch perhaps not to smart for Aren to see. I guess we'll see about that in the near future. He was in Bill's arms watching this man with utter fascination and his mouth agape the entire time.
Hallie & I stood in line for a half hour to get balloon animals from Roger, a guy I used to work with at BP's. He does all sorts of card tricks and stuff as well. He's pretty good at it.
And then there was the fireworks. They were by far the best fireworks I have ever seen. The same show was shown in 15 cities across Saskatchewan; they are hoping to set a world record for synconized firework display.

Hi!
I know a guy that used to be a part of Hoja. Dion roomed with him actually. I heard him practicing a few times, alone, in his room... definately sounds better with the whole group.
About the spamming, what should I do?
Ya, those fireworks were amazing. We walked to a field (right behind Grey Owl) from our house and could actually see where they were being set off from. (It was pitch black when we got there and we didn't notice until the fireworks started that we were about 20 feet from the "caution" tape.) It was great!!
