I'm thinking of you..

Today is my Grandma's birthday, she would have been 89, all day I have thought of how she might be celebrating.
Dancing with my Grandpa, eating chocolate cake or date squares, did she know I was thinking of her all day. Would she be disappointed in me for crying because I missed her today just like the day I got the call saying she had passed away. I know she never wanted me to mourn her passing but celebrate her life.
So today as she would of celebrated 89 wonderful years I think of the times we shared, the laughs, the tender moments, our secrets and private jokes. I thought of what a life she led, one of joy, hardships and how she lived every minute to the fullest. I was so proud to be her Granddaughter.
Your love lives on in my heart, so today I wish you a happy birthday and send you all my love.

Going South of the border.

Enjoying the weekend.

We started our Christmas baking, but we have to stop eating it if we want some for Santa, LOL.
The girls had just come in from outside, they were pretty soaking wet from building one of these....

Our first igloo of the season, today it's taking a bit of a beating, the temperatures are rising..

We made snow angels...

and smiled for Mommy's camera!!

I spent part of the weekend painting the girl's room, covering the tree, butterflies and ladybug mural. I was a little sad, my little girls are growing up and leaving their nursery behind. They wanted a big girl room, they helped pick the colors, the art and their furniture. I loved all their choices, they are growing up before my eyes. I will share once I finish painting the trim.

Hope your having a wonderful week...

Playing house..

Lately the best conversations between Jennifer and I happen at the dinner table or in the car.
Last night driving to piano lessons Jennifer and I were immersed in conversation all the while Jillian listening intently.
"Mom, I have a meeting tomorrow with the boss"
"You do, who's the boss"
"Trevor Mom, he's the boss of the army"
"The boss of the army?" I asked in surprise
"Yes Mom, the army, were in the army and he is the boss, I am Hawk girl, you know why I'm hawk girl"
"Okay, why are you Hawk girl?"
"I can scream like a hawk" Jennifer is now screeching at a deafening pitch.
I am quite intrigued at her talk of the army so I continue to ask questions.
"What does your army do?"
"We protect the people and food from the bad men that blow things up"
I am now quiet in the car, there is silence.
I long for the innocence of my childhood for my daughters, when bad men didn't blow things up and we just played house....

Flu season has hit...

The flu season has hit us!
Jennifer woke this morning with flu symptoms, she is resting quietly for now. Just administered Gravol, going to give her a bit of Pedialyte to drink, hope this helps.
Hope you have a good Monday.

A lazy weekend.

Today we lazed about, building a snowman, drinking Tim Horton's, just having a family day.
Hope you having a great weekend!!
