Kids are away.. mom and dad must play..

We gave had a busy week... w/ the kids being gone we only got in one round of golf.... and if you know us... that's not like us.....(we were too busy packing our new trailer... "new to us" trailer)... and well... we did a few other things.. but they can't be published... cause some day.. my kids will read my blog... and "gross" is what I will say..... hahahaha..

T is having a great time at BBall camp.. at the UofA...he said he ran lots.. and met a lot of new kids..learnt some new skills... but he wasn't too tired to pass up seeing the Transformers movie..

J is visiting Auntie E's this week.... having a great time.. they love to spoil her... Auntie lives a block from an outdoor pool... however, if the weather is not 18+ they will not open the pool... and just our luck... it' only been open one day.. but.. she's also seen Ice Age 3D... which was good...Lukster..has taken her to DQ and they have been out visiting friends...

My niece.. turned sweet 16... can you beleive it...she is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen... hope she get's her licence soon... maybe a trip to V is in the plans...let's just hope...

What else has been up!!!

J and I went the the Jonas Bro's concert on the 30th... boy was that fun... imagine 17000 screaming girls...(glad I was in the parent room)... but it was J's first concert.. and she loved every minute of it...

let the summer begin...

No more lunches.. no more alarm clocks... school has finally finished and I am proud to say I now have a grade 8r and 6r... I also have 5 days off with not a lot of plans... so.... maybe off to the city tomorrow.. maybe sleeping in.. whatever it is it's gonna be good.

I'm Back...

Well after numerous complaints... I thought I better get something posted...

It's obvious.. that I have neglected my obligation to keep the family informed.. so here it goes..

Dad..is gone... up to Fort Vermilion to assist with his parents in preparing for their auction sale... Dad... I think is sad.. after may years... this is one chapter he has to partially close... Our trips to the north will not end, but our sleeps in the "shack" likely will... Oma.. would always make us feel like we were on our honeymoon.. cause she kept the kids in the house.. and Dad and I got to sleep in the "shack".. of course.. I was paranoid of the bears and mice.. so I would always have to wait til the weeee hours of the morning (til Dad was done playing cards) to go to bed and by then.. I was too tired... and when my head hit the pillow I was out.!!!! Sorry DAD!!! LOL

While DAD was away... we headed to Saskatchewan... and had some good laughs and chats... the "Thiessen" gang were not home.. they were out "branding" which is WAY more fun than seeing "auntie."

My nefews and niece... are growing... and growing.. soon my niece will drive..she's already hit the "boyfriend stage" (she drove my truck today.. and did a pretty good job)

... if you can believe it she's almost as cute as auntie was!!! HAHA

My nefew's are about a thin as one of my legs... (mustn't be much for food in Saskatcheewan????) one is taller than me... but that doesn't take much..

Today.. was the hottest day of 2009.. and well I'm red... but will be white come the morning (that's right.. it will not turn into a tan!!! you others that experience the same... know what I'm talking about..)

Mid May... I took over the Branch Manager position.. that has a few new/more challenges... but I think I'm going to enjoy the change... (Only now I have to watch my "P's & "Q's"... which most of you know is harder for me than the average)

Golfing..Golfing... Love it... wish I could do it everyday.. sometimes I try... but my mother duties interupt.. I think the hubby is getting nervous.... as my drives.. are getting longer and longer (this may be a direct result of my weight gain... when you use all your weight.. and your hips..the ball seems to fly)

One last thing...
Most of our friends have been praying for Cec... and I'm happy to say.. "to my beleif" our prayers have been getting answered, he doing well.. can not wait to see him... we need to continue to pray.. as there is a long road ahead..

Kids..

Busy.. weekend.. but were done dance competitions.. (do I sound excited). J finished up with a Silver in Jazz and Musical Theatre and a bronze in Hip Hop..

Gordie's Still Got It!!

Ok... there was not moshing... but....there were a few fans in the audience...that had potential... and dad.. may have been one of them. Gordon Lightfoot he's old.. but good... we had a good time... but if it wasn't for us the average audience age would have been 65+

and more.... pics...
