I had a really nice b-day

I had my favorite birthday meal-Greek(: Yummy! Greek Salad, breaded veal cuttlets (can't do lamb) and potato wedges with greek seasoning. It was very yummy. My parents bought the ingredients for dinner and even surprised me with a Black Forest Cake. Mom's camera is on the fritz again, so I took a picture of the cake on photobooth. You can see mom in the background trying to get her camera working. I think it's time for a new camera. I'm sure she has taken a million photos with hers and it has served her well. I see Staples have them on sale this week. They also bought me a 4 gb usb drive. My old one is only 256 mb, so now I'll be able to move bigger files from one computer to the next. Like a movie or something(:
I also celebrated my birthday with my sister and her family on Sunday. We had cake chocolate and rasparilla. Yummy! At work today I had chocolate chip cupcakes. It was a great b-day. Thank you everyone. Thanks for all the gifts too!

A month away from blogging

I've been so busy lately that I haven't had time to blog. I've been doing 2 full time jobs at work with only 40 hrs to do it in. It's exhausting and the last thing I want to do is be on the computer after work. We are on holidays right now, but didn't have interent until today.. My son turned 13 and we had an awesome b-day party for him. It's spring break and we are enjoying our holidays. We've been busy all week. We went to the arcade, mini golf, laser tag, bowling and swimming/waterslides. When I get home, I'll post some pictures on my blog. Until then...catch ya on the flip side!

Visiting Crystal

I went to visit Crystal this morning and we decided to go to The Hills Health Ranch to swim. We only swam for 15 min. and then the pool was unavailable because of an aquasizes class going on. So we got wrinkly in the hot tub and watched the ladies do their aquasizes for 45 min. until we were able to go back in the pool. We had a great time. Afterwards we went for lunch. It was a nice visit.









These pictures our from our last visit in january. Crystal enjoyed her doughnut. We had taken her to the park to go sliding. Sean enjoyed playing on the horsey at the park and pushing Crystal on the swings.

Kels' awesome gumball machine

Kels made this gumball machine in woodwork class. She painted it to look like
the Joker, from the latest Batman Movie. The best part about the gumball machine is that it doesn't take money!

OMG Pop Shoppe Pop is back!

Ah, Pop Shoppe Pop and the memories I have when I was a kid. Back in the early 80's we had a store called The Pop Shoppe and all they sold was Pop Shoppe Pop. It was a treat for us to go to The Pop Shoppe once a month and pick out the flavours of pop we liked the most. My favorites were Black Cherry, Grape, Green Lime and cream soda. Back then pop was a treat and we rarely had any. When we visited our Great Uncle Dave in Nanaimo, he would send us downstairs and we would pick out some Pop Shoppe Pop. It was great. So, when I saw some at the store today, I just had to buy some. I am wondering if it tastes as good as I remember. I picked out black cherry, Mike picked rootbeer, we bought cola for Sean and grape fro Kelsey. We are going to enjoy our pops tonight with a movie. Kels isn't home, but don't worry Kels we won't drink yours with out replacing it!
