A date followup

I got put in a cage, while the other two bunnies ran around free, how rude.

Anyway, it was still a fun evening. I tried my best to get to know Mommy Louise's two bunnies, it wasn't easy. Sasha was a little over zealous when it came to talking to me, every time I tried talking to her, she'd take off and run around the cage. Coco, on the other paw, was rather shy. I think he might have been intimidated by my awesomeness.

Saying hi to Sasha.

Daddy and Mommy Louise didn't watch Brave, but they did watch something Scottish, mommy Louise has a cool TV that you can watch YouTube videos on. So daddy called up our favorite Scottish video, the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo from 2012.
 

And they had dinner, roasted chicken, and mixed vegetables, daddy said it was yummy.

Then they watched another movie that daddy has loved for a very long time, it's called The Pirate Movie, it's based (very loosely) on the Gilbert and Sullivan Pirates of Penzance. To give you an idea how long daddy has loved this movie, my 34 year old aunt (daddy's little sister) first watched this movie when she was 8 years old.

Only 4 more days till Fan Expo, this is getting exciting. I found out yesterday that the founder of the 501st Stormtroopers is going to be at Fan Expo on Friday, so awesome.

A date

Later today (Sunday), me and daddy are heading downtown to have dinner with mommy Louise. And well we have done that before, it's where we are having it that makes it special. We are going to mommy Louise's place, and she is cooking dinner for us.... Well cooking for daddy and her. I'm going to get a chance to get to know mommy Louise's two bunnies Sasha and Coco, but I will be in a spare cage and those two will be free ranging. As long as I have some food, water and treats in there with me, I'll get by.

We are also going to be watching some movies, like one of my all time favorites Brave, then one other movie.

In about 5 days me, daddy and mommy Louise are going to Fan Expo (a ComiCon), it'll be me and daddy's third time at a CON. Unlike the other two this one is HUGE, it takes up the whole convention center (every floor, in both buildings). Compared to ComiCon (the first one we went to), which was held in the same building, it was only on the lower level of one building.
This will be exciting for another reason too, they will be showing a sneak peek of the new Star Wars: Rebels cartoon series there. This new series takes place 5 years before the events of Episode 4: A New Hope (the first of the original trilogy), and tells how the rebellion against the Empire started. Speaking of Star Wars, I'm gonna get to see my loyal subjects (the 501st Storm Troopers), remember I am their Easter Emperor. Daddy is working on something for my stroller, so you'll just have to wait until Friday to see what it is, but I will say it'll be awesome.

Mommy Louise is home

I got a neat surprise today, after running an errand (picking up our food), we went without my stroller. When we got home daddy rushed around getting my stroller ready to go on an outing, he packed the beach shelter, and blanket. Which I should have figured out meant that we were going to a beach, but I thought it was a little late for us to head over to our favorite beach.Well it turned out we did head to a beach, but we didn't meet up with my uncle Matthew.

Instead we met up with mommy Louise!!!!!! We found a nice quite spot on the beach (there was a volleyball tournament going on), daddy set up the shelter and the blanket. Then got my leash out so I could get down and play in the sand, I had other ideas, I went to the back of the shelter and flopped. I've got my priorities, napping is in top spot, and digging in the sand is somewhere down near the middle.

That's my new buddy beside me

My new stuffie makes a good pillow

Daddy and mommy Louise exchanged gifts, I've already showed you what we gave her (BTW she really loved it), so I'll just cover what mommy Louise got us. For me she got me a new stuffie, I didn't know what kind of animal it is, I've never seen one like it. Well here I'll show it to you.

I've never seen an animal like this

Whatever it is, it better get off my head.

Oh, daddy says that it's a baby seal

I'm still trying to figure out a name for him.

 Daddy told mommy Louise that we were going to try to find a suitable name, and when we did I give it my "seal" of approval (you may commence groaning), mommy Louise did, I just rolled my eyes at another of daddy's bad jokes.

Oh, mommy Louise also brought back things for daddy too, one is a glass figure of a crab (don't ask, it's from a seaside town in England), and a very pretty and very smooth rock. Neither of which I'm allowed to play with.

The pretty rock.

When we were done at the beach we walked over to a restaurant, and had dinner out on the patio.

Both me and daddy are super happy that she is back, and she is happy that she is back too. I don't ever want her to go away for that long again, I'd almost forgotten how much fun it is to have her around.

Daddy says it's time for bed, so I'd better close this blog so I can get my bedtime treat, mmmmmmmm papaya nommie.

One last boys weekend

Since mommy Louise is back, daddy and I decided to go on one last boys only adventure. Friday we went to Taste of the Danforth, which is a big Greek festival in Toronto, most of it is food, food and more food. It can get really crowded there, but more on that a little later.
Me and daddy were on the hunt for a present to replace the one daddy lost, we looked at every booth and table that didn't have food. We were about to give up when daddy spotted a gem store, they had bunches of pretty rocks for sale, at 50% off. So we looked, daddy was going to see if they had any pyrite (fools gold), no such luck. But we did find a very pretty piece of Rose Quartz, which is what we bought. Daddy was telling the sales lady that what we really wanted was something in the shape of a bunny, but all they had were rocks shaped like birds and fish. The lady said that they did indeed have bunny sculptures, and pointed them out to daddy. The one we settled on was made out of Agate.

Until we meet up with Mommy Louise her present is going to stay here at home, this way we won't lose it again.

Now about the crowds, we went to the Taste of the Danforth again today, but I told daddy he wasn't in the right state of mind. We walked about half way through the festival when daddy started having a panic attack, I directed him to find the nearest help, which was Toronto Fire Fighters, they called over the medics, and they drove us to the subway station. I got daddy home safely, and kept him calm the whole ride home.

On Friday we found a neat place to get our picture taken, and it reminded us of mommy Louise. There is a new movie coming out in December this year, called Paddington, it's based on a series of stories about a bear in England.

Super Happy News

Okay, I know I haven't been posting much, but daddy has been dealing with a very bad migraine.
We went to a remembrance ceremony for the start of World War 1 last Thursday, it was okay but there was one minor annoance, they put the flags of the provinces right in front of us, but it was still good.

There are five parts to this video, watching this part should lead to the other 4 parts.

We have even bigger news, Mommy Louise is right now over the province of Quebec and should be landing here just after 7:30pm our time. We weren't expecting her until Friday, so the fact she is returning to us two days early is even better.
We should be getting some pictures she took with my stand in, you remember the teddy bear I got her, daddy suggested she take pictures of it in various locations where she was.

This bear

 Speaking of mommy Louise, we got a postcard from her last week.

This should say Titchwell

We didn't have any idea what the plants are in this picture, my granty came to the rescue, it is the English Fuzzybur, it only grows in marshland in southern England.

The back of the card.

Daddy was trying to arrange it so that we could meet mommy Louise at the airport, and have grandma and grandpa drive us back to her place. Daddy wasn't really looking forward to the 2 hour transit ride out there, but I told him we'd get to see mommy Louise sooner.
We might get to see her this weekend, and I am going to be so happy, I've been wanting a mommy hug for so long. We will get to talk to her, she's going to call us tomorrow or Friday.
