I love you!

Niagara Falls - Limited Edition

We made it out to Niagara Falls last weekend finally for our anniversary (back in October). We dropped the kids of at JM and Becky's and were off to enjoy one of the most frigid weekends ever. It was really to bad, b/c I had grand dreams of getting out lots and walking and seeing things. But it was just SOOO cold. But we did venture out and see the Isaac Brock memorial and walk through the park there for a bit. (Jonathan loves history, so this is right up his alley).

One picture of Jonathan -- that's all the frozen fingers allowed.

(and he was making fun of me for closing one eye when he was trying to take a picture of me. Phht!)

The views were lovely . . .

. . . especially from inside the van . . .

We did jump out of the van and see the Falls at night with the lights and it was pretty pretty.

And then we jumped back in. (the van, not the Falls)

Anyhow, we had a good time away relaxing, shopping, eating, and relaxing.

Another momentous occasion I thought I'd share. I emptied my "telephone" file from my filing cabinet. (1 file down, many more to go) You see I can't fit hardly another paper in my drawer, so something had to go . . .

. . . .So to the recycling goes 10 years of telephone bills. I know I'm crazy and a pack rat and I don't have a CLUE!!! who I'd get that from!!!

Don't worry Mom - I saved one from every other year or so for posterity or good memories or whatever;0) . . .

Princesses and other Paraphernalia

When friends come to play . . .

Yah, I know I should have fixed the bobbypin before the picture, but after I did, they wouldn't pose anymore . . . that seems to be how it goes .

A bigger princess. (a very happy and beautiful one too)

(Kylie has been dressing up all day today in her white "princess dress" after seeing Brenda get married on Saturday.)

Kade with his longer hair . . . I like it mostly . . .except with wearing hats to school everyday, we never style it and it really just looks like a bit of a mop most of the time. So it looks good on Sundays:)

Someone told me Christmas was over. This is my attempt at an update:)

(afterall . . .even Jo did an update today . . .talk about inspiration:))
