Well another busy week and end....DD had Otoplasty done on Friday, again....her bad ear just didn't look right, and not hopefully it will be pinned back enough. She has to wear this bandage for a week.
We had our friend's over on Sat for a BBQ and to watch the Red Wings play and that went well, so tonight we are heading to their house to watch game 2.....
I did pick up my Through the Years, and stitched maybe 5 stitches tops....=( I haven't been doing anything...
DD and I weeded the back year flower gardens yesterday, and I re potted more tomato plants, so I hope I have some cherry tomato by the time I'm done.....=) We also, planted some sunflowers, and marigolds seed form so will look forward to them growing.
Well I hope everyone has a great week....Happy sunshine......summer will be here soon.....

Hi everyone, so on Sunday I did my First 1/2 marathon, I did it in 2:32  I was very proud of myself and can't wait to next year to do it again...well a different 1/2 marathon but one all the same. I was sore on late monday, tuesday, and wed, so I'm hoping to not have that again....I think it was the hill that did my legs in or the 21km I'm not sure....lol

So I have been doing a bit of stitching in the night, nothing to show as of yet but will send an update when I get some thing to show.

So both my kids are finished school for the summer, and both are moving to the next grade.....DS will be in grade 6 and DD grade 1....oh my what will I do ....exercise is what I'm going to do....I can see 145lbs so  hope to be there next year...we will see.

We are heading camping this weekend with my cousin and here family so we should have lots of fun, it's our Canada Long weekend...July 1st holiday.  And the weatherman is calling for sunshine.....yippy.  Well Happy July 4th to everyone, take care and I will update later

Hi all so we are home from our mini Vacation to Vancouver Island, the kids and I went to see family.  We camped, visited, the kids swam....the weather was very nice....=) finally summer is here......=) better late then not at all.
So 23 days until we go to Disney World in Florida....we can't wait.....=)

I haven't been doing to much I weeded my back gardens again, the front ones need done again.  A few plants died when we went away...DH didn't get the water plant memo....grrrr.....lol oh well I will just have to buy more....=)

Today the kids went to the dentist and both kids didn't have any cavities.....so that was nice.

18 more days until Disney World......=) it will be here before we know it.  We are heading out Geo caching today, taking a picnic lunch and it should be fun.  This week we spend some time with friends from school, this next week I will be signing up Veronica for dance of some kind, I hope it's after school, so that is doesn't conflict with hockey come Sept.  Well I haven't been doing an cross stitching, but found our my youngest sister is expecting....so I guess the Lady Bug birth anouncement will be for her if she has a girl.  She's due in Mar-April 2009. 
Well I had better go and make our lunch to take with us on our walk, take care
