Sad


I have been watching Michael Jackson's funeral. Wow....this must have been what it was like for our parents when Elvis died. The icon of that era.

The world really did not know him except for all the weird and head shaking stuff that was reported by the media. But looking at those kids today and hearing his daughter speak was enough to make me cry. Those poor kids. Yes, what a life they have already lived. Servants, huge mansions, the travel, and really anything that money can buy. But, in the end, thier dad is gone and they are left behind missing him.

I can't imagine what his life really was like. Never having any privacy, hounded constantly by people always wanting something. Privacy the one thing that he could not ever buy..sad. We will never really know the truth about all those allegations. The ones that he was acquitted for but once labelled... people never forget.

Thanks for all the music Michael and giving everyone the chance to make memories with all of it. For me his moon walk stands out . My family would act crazy in our kitchen trying to re-create. Such silliness but what laughs we had.

Fun with Playdough


Just got back from my girlfriend's birthday party for her twins. Hard to believe those babies are 2 years old now! So sweet...it was a nice afternoon.

Check out the cute stuff my girl made for me from her new pink playdough.

oh and to the author who wrote Twilight.........


Thank You!

Loved the movie, read the book and now onto the second book (New Moon) which is causing me an extreme lack of sleep on my part but guess what? I DON'T CARE!!.... those words, the story lines haunt me. It is like you just can't get enough.

Ahhhhh sigh sigh sigh.... where is my Edward Cullen?

Ughhhh...so much where to begin?




Yikes, long time no see. Been busy busy with kids and work. What else is new right?

Kaylin's baseball is going really well. She hit her first home run the other night so that was pretty thrilling for her. She passed her swimming level so off to a new level and is she excited about that. You see she is going to be a lifeguard for her summer job when she gets older. (yippee..career plans already!)

Last weekend Kaylin and I went to a Scrapbooking Class together...very exciting and they even entertained us with a visit from Mike's Critters. Yep...right up Kaylin's alley. She just loves that kind of stuff... me....not really. But, gotta suck it up for the girl. Check out the snake picture. There is just no way. I barely could get close enough to get the picture. It is a Rainbow Boa Constrictor by the way.

My brother came to town on Sunday night and has been with us for a bit but really on the road all around our lovely province. Unfortunately he heads home on Saturday so this really was not much of a visit but that is okay...I get about 10 days with him and his family this August so I can wait to really visit until then.

Work has been busy. We lost a couple of great coworkers to other endeavours in the last 10 days so I will really miss them. They made coming to work wonderful and full of a lot of laughter. Oh well...they made great choices for themselves but it is still hard to see them go.
