Birthday boys


Happy Birthday to my 2 favorite boys! Charlie is 38 and Jason is 39. We might just stop right here and not move on! What - is that Italian Cream cake? It doesn't get better than this!

Euchre 2008


Kelly hosted the Christmas Euchre celebration dinner. We missed Michelle (108 temp) but we still had fun visiting and exchanging gifts. We worked in some card playing too. Happy Christmas card girls!!

Woo hoo!!!

I just got an email from our facilitator. Drum roll please........

Our dossier got turned in to the government in November. YAY!!! We hadn't heard anything so we thought maybe we would have to wait until January. This is great news! We were told that usually you travel within 3 months of it getting turned in, so that would be February. We wanted to wait until it's REALLY COLD to go!! :)

Fingers crossed, hearts bowed, Lord push it right on through the red tape.

Oh no - I am starting to stress. We had better start peeling off wallpaper in the Foosball room!
