It has been a while since I have written anything so here, in no particular order, are some random updates.....
1. My sister got married last weekend. I will not post pictures of that yet (she has not done so yet, so I will wait) however I did get to drive the groom's truck from the church building to the reception. Rule #1 of getting married..... NEVER GIVE YOUR TRUCK KEYS TO ANYONE!!!
Megan, Katie and I filled their truck with balloons (Sari was being "wedding photographer" with the couple so she did not get to participate in the fun). We filled it so full that you could hardly close the doors. Pictures below are of the work in progress
Fortunately for me, I am not getting married again. Unfortunately for the girls, their aunt has a long memory and a fine tune sense of "Pippus revenge".... we will wait and see what happens. :)
2. Katie got her university acceptance letter. If you do not know the what, where and why of this, write to me privately and I will give you the details. Needless to say, she is excited. Her parents on the other hand are trying to be excited.
3. Megan is approximately a month away from getting her driver's license. She has done most of her driving times with the instructor so soon she will be on the road. The search for a car begins.
4. Both girls made the honour roll in the first semester and their mid-term report cards came today.... they are doing well.
5. Sari is leaving me.... a few times actually. She is going to a conference in May and she is also going to go pick up a big chunk of money that is being donated to her school program. Very nice!
6. Spring is officially here..... I just watched an entire playoff hockey game including 3 periods of overtime. I love the first round of the NHL playoffs.... even if the Leafs and almost every other Canadian team missed it.
7. Tomorrow is "Spring check-up day" for my motorcycle. If it ever stops snowing, I may even get to ride it a bit.
8. I am looking forward to the workday at "Estevan Motor Speedway" on Saturday. First race = May 3rd...... woo hoo!!!!
9. If you want to see something really disgusting, take the trap off of your kitchen sink drain. Sari and Megs dropped a Popsicle stick down there today so I took ours apart..... ooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhh...... iiiiiccccckkkkkkkkkk!!!! (Fill in your own details here). I am not even sure how some of that stuff got down there.
10. Life is good. We are happy and content with our little life. We are thankful and are trying to enjoy every day. We don't always do that last part well.... but we do it more days than we don't. We just saw my family and this weekend we get to be with Sari's folks..... and it is supposed to be warm sometime soon (I keep telling myself that anyway). Life is good!
PS. Now that things are starting to happen around here again, I am going to try to blog more regularly. Please check back and comment..... it is way more fun if you comment. Ok? OK! :)
It was spring cleaning day today..... sort of.
