What Brady are you? This is too funny

You Are Jan Brady

Brainy and a little introverted, you tend to think life is a lot worse than it actually is. And while you may think you're a little goofy looking, most people consider you to be a major babe.

What Brady Are You?

Lots of Popcorn.....Yum!

Well, it's been an 'entertaining' couple of days. Friday was a pro-d day so I took Krista (well she followed) to Langley to Toy Traders. Got the boys a few goodies there. They haven't stopped playing with them yet! I figured since I was in Langely that I would take the boys to see Shrek the Third at the Collossus. How great. We ate 2 buckets of popcorn between the three of us. I swear Shane was cleaning up! Great movie, not as good as 1 and 2 but entertaining. Of course the theater is awesome, spacious and comfortable! I talked to Dave's mom today and told her we went and her response was that she had hoped I hadn't as she heard on the noon news that the movie wasn't appropriate for kids and that it was scary...LOL. It caught me a bit off guard. I said that it must have been her opinion and that she was wrong (the critic not Lia) The movie was rated G, it was animated and the boys loved it. Lia was worried that the movie would give the boys nightmares. I said, no, they loved it and they are fine. End of conversation on that topic. Ya, I'm such a horrible mother. I took my boys to see Shrek the Third and now they are going to need therapy. What a joke!

Today, Dave asked Kaitlyn what she wanted to do and she said a movie. LOL. Dave is working for Yarrow on call until next Thursday as Rudy is away and the weather is unpredictable and Dave wanted me to go as he had to keep a close eye on the computer and save Yarrow from potential disaster......rofl. Anyway, no problem there. Kaitlyn and I went to see Spiderman 3. I sense a '3' theme here. Anyway, I found it to be very entertaining. The 2+ hours to fly by. Lots of action! Only one bag of popcorn. I did however, during the movie noticed that Kaitlyn ran out of pop and asked if she would go and get our drinks filled as everything is free refills. She said no thanks. I was a little perturbed as I paid for the movie and the snacks and she couldn't get off her butt for a refill. What a brat! It makes me wonder why we bother to do anything with her. I did however, enjoy the movie. Not even a thanks for the movie or nothing.

I'm going to have a nice hot shower before bed. Tomorrow afternoon while Dave is taking Kaitlyn home, I plan to take the boys to Charmaines and set up their computer. Maybe she'll finally get internet! lol. Catch up with the '90's eh? LOL.

Hope you're all having a good weekend!

I'm out.

Field Trip and Pro-D day....again

Well, same old thing around here. Ryan had a field trip on Wednesday Both K classes got on the bus to go to Banner's (it's a restaurant now but was formerly known as Big Scoop) for icecream and then to the Chilliwack public library for a fun story telling session and then to sign out a book. Ryan quite enjoyed it. Tomorrow, Friday is a pro-d day again, of course what a great way to start a long weekend eh? I'm thinking of taking Krista (Bridger's mom, classmate of Ryan) to Toy Trader's in Langley. Will call her in the morning to see if she is up to it. Then I really really really want to go and see Shrek 3. Who cares what the kids want, I want to see it with popcorn, the whole bit. I'm even willing to sacrifice Shane's nap. How mean is that. I just have to look up the times and figure it out. I'm just going to see how the day unfolds.

Next week is a little hectic. We have Kaitlyn this weekend, Dave is working for Yarrow as Rudy is away next week. I'm volunteering at Bingo for the school from 10pm-1am on Tuesday. Thursday is the PAC meeting at 7pm as Krista and I said we would go if they made it evening. So they did. And Friday is Ryan's Primary fun day! Dave also has to take his mom to Vancouver on that Friday regarding the tumor in her head. The week is going to fly, so hopefully you're not to disappointed in me if I don't get a chance to update. What are your plans Aysha? Do you get a holiday any time soon? I know, good funny....lol.

Take Care

Keeping Busy

I have been keeping myself busy...kids help. Anyway, I've been stamping my little heart out. I finished a 7 card (front only) swap and posted today. I made a dozen blessing/advice cards for Sue's neice Lindsay with a box, and I have made 1 out of 12 announcements. I had to get out of my head and onto the table. Check out my craft blog for the pictures. Oh, and I made my uncle a birthday card for his 60th birthday. Other than that it's been the same routine around here.

BTW: Happy Birthday Charmaine!!!!!

This is Enlightening!

Pretty Lame

I'm sorry I haven't updated but nothing real exciting has happened. Just the day to day busyiness. I did attend the Stampin' Up! regional event on Friday the 27th of April. I was up the night before (or should I say morning) until 3:30am, then I had a shower and set my alarm for 5:15. I had to be out of the house by 5:45ish. Ish is right! It was more like 5:54 when I was pulling out of the driveway. The only positive thing that early is the traffic is lighter. Got to Sue's and she drove us into Vancouver. It was a great day! We had presentations, demonstrations and 5 make and takes. We did however have to kill some time from the time the seminar ended to the SCS dinner at 8pm. Can you believe that on a Friday night the Harbour Centre Mall closes at 6pm? How crazy is that? So we ended up walking to the Old Spaghetti Factory and having an appy and drink while we waited for the dinner to start. It went by rather quickly as we were in good company and good conversation. Suzanne did win a door prize. They were Martha Stewart photo clips. She shared them with me. Two for her and two for me. Thanks Sue! Other than that, same old stuff, shopping, cleaning etc. Oh on Saturday was my Mother's day workshop. A couple of ladies came over and we made a beautiful Mother's day card and a Address book. You can check out all the pictures on my craft page link. I did the Costco thing today, I took Shane and visited Lia yesterday while Ryan was in school. I'm still trying to catch up on my sleep. I'm so tired! Anyway, got to get some cleaning done, it's driving me crazy! Canucks are do or die tonight. They are down 3-1 in the series. We can do it! We have done it 3/6 times before. Not bad averages. And of course the piece de resistance is a 2 hour Grey's Anatomy. So you know what I'll be doing tonight! BTW, Aysha, I talked to Dave about you staying with us, and Yoda too! NO PROBLEM! You're in girl. You just need to know when to get what you want....LOL. Hope you're well, I did read your blog, just haven't had a chance to comment. Beautiful pictures by the way.

Ciao for now,
Tara
