Downtown Victoria

I am on the Social Committee at work, and Thursday July 14th was our Scavenger Hunt! I was stationed down at the inner harbour all afternoon to help out the teams that came by. While I was waiting, I took some photos of the area.

Totems outside of the Royal BC Museum

Peacocks at Beacon Hill Park

And for something completely different....

Canada Day

We celebrated Canada Day 2011 with the Viscos at a Luau party they hosted on their farm. Jordan even bought a 75-pound pig which the boys prepared and buried in the field to start cooking at 2am on the morning of the event!



Jordan sews the stuffing into the pig before putting it in the ground



Everyone gathers around as Kyle and Todd bring dinner up out of the ground.

Mike and Jordan start separating the meat

I made 64 vegan chocolate cupcakes for dessert.

Ryan rocked his Toronto Blue Jays hat!

The boys getting themselves arranged to put on their faux-fireworks display... Mentos in coke!

Happy Canada Day!!
