Update

I know it has been a long time since I put anything up so I thought I should get something on here.  We love being home and have enjoyed having holidays with family.  Christmas was great Mom came up and stayed for a week, which we LOVED, and JJ's brother came over with his family for New Years.  It was nice to be surrounded by family.  I have pictures somewhere so I will post them later when I find my camera. 
I had a good birthday, we went out with Brian and Ruth to the Keg and had a blast.  I am sorry we couldn't attened the annual Martin New Years Party and hope everyone had fun. 
I will try and get my butt in gear and put a post up at least once a week.

Thanksgiving

Well I can honestly say that I am very thankful for the past thanksgivings when I was the one just helping, not doing the entire meal.  It was not as bad as I thought it would be but I miss preparing everything with a bit of friendly conversation to go along with it.  Our little dinner turned out pretty good.  It was just our little family and JJ's co-worker, Tyler.  It was very good and I guess I could do it again, but I would prefer to go back to just helpin someone else cook.  I hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving Day.  I am missing my family and I really wish I could see them but things don't always go as planned. 
Happy Thanksgiving!!

My New Toy

Isn't it just pretty.  My laptop cord won't plug in properly, and it has been driving me insain, so we went and go the gateway all-in-one touchscreen computer today.  I love it it is so much fun.  I look forward to figuring out how all the features work.

Toopy and Binoo

Guess who came to the mall here?  That's right Connor and Ashleigh got to see Toopy and Binoo live.  It was fun but extremely crowded but that didn't suprise me.  They got bored of sitting and waiting but the enjoyed it once the show started.

We weren't to far back they could see pretty good.

Trying to keep Connor entertained while we waited.  They were good even after a 30 min wait till it started.

And then there were two.

So with Cayleigh at school it is all of sudden really quiet.  Not that she was extremely loud she just gets so bored at home and the other two entertain themselves very well.

 

Giving mommy quiet time. Love it.

Lethbridge Parade

So I finally uploaded my pictures from when we went back home.  I only have pictures from the parade but that is better than nothing.

Waiting for the parade to start, and what a long wait it was.  I was amazed Connor actually sat with them because he was so grumpy. 

So serious and so silly.

We headed to McDonalds playplace after to eat.  I just love this picture they were jumping off and just laughing.  Too cute.

Just can't bare to sit still long enough to get a picture taken.

School

So am totally torn. I love that Cayleigh is in school now and I am pretty sure she loves it, but every other morning when I drop her off it is tears tears tears.  I know school just started and she needs to get use to it so I am trying my hand at extreme patience and I think I am doing pretty good.  I just hope she gets over this by the time the snow hits the ground so I am not trying to lug 2 other children out of the car to take her into school.  Oh well just my thoughts.
