Been a while since I have been on. My daughter is in high gear for her wedding, slowly coming together.
I just finished a book called Unbroken....by Laura Hillenbrand
I was very surprised that I liked it as much as I did. It is about an Olympic runner, who enlists to the air force during WWII.  It takes on many curves and bends won't let you put it down. The main character Louie, becomes a POW in Japan and the treatment he and his men receive is just mind boggling.  Great Story and a Great Plot.  Angelina Jolie is producing the movie to be released Dec. 25th 2014.
I haven't had time to paint in a while, tomorrow I plan a full day of it.  Been walking some. Trying to shed a few pounds before the wedding in July.
My councillor Mary is going to be off work for quite a while, not sure what is going to happen. That is kinda scary.
Thanks Justine for all the photo's from your trip they have been amazing to look at and follow.
off topic once again:  I wish I could find a dress for the wedding, I have nothing yet. Ben, (remember I told you I would talk  about him again) my grandson is 3yrs and he is going to be the ringbearer.
My nieces girl (4) is a flower girl and so is Ella from Sam's side of the family.  I have been looking for the gifts for the wedding party and think I have picked what I would like for the ring bearer and the 2 flower girls I will have to run it by Jaimee and Sam.
I have started driving again. went out for the first time this winter yesterday. went out for a little bit today.  Planning a big supper because Jaimee and Sam will be here and they will stay the night.
I came across this photo that I think was really cool. Check it out.
Talk about da close call. She was certainly lucky that day.

Been busy trying to help my daughter Jaimee as she prepares for her wedding, ( July 5. 2014)
Did the guest list up today. Last Sat. we went and picked out her dress it is on order.  Better be here in time.  The venue has been selected Dalewood Golf Club.  Invitations still need to  be done. but she had me order a sample of one over the internet it will take a bit to get here.  Her & Sam went to the beach and came back with wood for a sign they want to make. and they got  lot's of beach stones that they are using as their guest book.
I hope Jaimee doesn't feel pressured into the dress. I really liked it but she has to love it.
I have had lot's of homework the last 2 days. Brad has been away so I am trying to get it done.

Well I missed Little Matthew Christening, too much snow.  I sure hope they send some photos and I still need photos of Ben when he was a baby, all my photos have gone??????
We are planning a wedding around here, lot's to do and get venue's and church finale I keep giving Jaimee and Sam ideas but we haven't firmed anything up yet.  I  kinda like my idea of using board games as centrepieces rather than flowers. good way for everyone to mix and get to know each other.
they can't be anything long ie: monopoly, clue.   Stuff like headbanz and drawing a picture. I found a few that I think would be great. But I have to let them decide.
We are all so sick of snow up here, it just keeps coming.


When are the baby birds going to come out. it has been the worst winter I can remember.
Would love any suggestions for the wedding as in party favours and such some unique ideas.
by the way I never showed you Jaimee's ring this picture just doesn't do it justice.


But she is quite happy with it and  we are all excited about it.

My cats are driving me crazy lately all they want to do is eat. But then they throw up. can anybody tell me how to keep a cat from throwing up so much.



They are good cats they just drive me nuts about throwing up and hungry all the time, I think that might be because Brad bought them a new type of cat food, it just isn't filling them up.
Oh well have to wait till they are done this bag.
