Not Much To Say

Well the summer seems to be sizzling by for us. We have moved all the furniture to the basement to avoid the heat. You might laugh but when you are used to winter 10 months of the year those two months of 30+ weather really get to you. The kids think it's to hot to go outside to play and I seem to only venture out long enough to mow the 5 acres of grass. We have had Tornado, Severe Thunderstorm and Strong Wind warnings almost every afternoon for weeks. I'm so looking forward to closing up the house and going on holidays. The only problem with that is finding a trailer. Now that Shawn has made General Foreman he is only home every other weekend for a day and a half which makes trailer buying a feverish task. Hopefully we'll find something this weekend as he has an extra day for the holiday. Wish us luck or it's back to our 13 foot packing crate on wheels. Ha Ha.

George Canyon

Unless you are a country music fan you won't appreciate how lucky the kids and I where. We received tickets for a George Canyon Concert from the dealership that we were looking for a new trailer at. No trailer yet but boy was the music great. The kids and I got to meet him have pictures taken and received autographs. Bailey thought he was very nice and liked that his kids where the same age as her and Jesse. Mike doesn't like country much but he was the perfect escort for me and a helpful big brother to the little ones.

Happy Canada Day




Bailey won a picture contest with the Global TV Weather. The prize she won was tickets to the Edmonton Cracker Cats Baseball game. In order to find a game that fit into both Shawn's and Mike's work schedule we ended up with only one date. Canada Day. We had a great time with hotdogs, peanuts, and the whole ball game experience. From the ball park you can see the Alberta Legislature so after the game we went for a quick tour. It was so beautiful. What a wonderful day for the whole family.
