Christmas planning

What is every young mans and dream, I think everyone of them goes through a stage in life that all they thing of is War Games and Camo Gear. For Christmas this year we are focusing on items the kids will acutally use. It is so frustrating watching items we bought never being use. Our oldest son is looking into airsoft rifle and accessories. I recently came accross a great website that will allow you to shop for different accessories they will want. Trinity will be home with us this week . I think next year she will start to get more demanding but for this years she is easy. I gave Jay the website and he has been going on everyday or two trying to find the best protests.

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs

We have been enjoying all the 3D movies that have been released lately and next week will give us another opportunity to take in a 3D movie. Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs comes out on the 18th and it looks like it will be very funny from the previews that are available. The kids love to enjoy a yummy popcorn with a little dill pickle salt. I just heard there will be a new Shrek in the spring in 3d so that will be very exciting for everyone.

medical plan

When it comes to health care I would want to support anything that makes it easier for people to get through their treatments and be able to return to a normal lifestyle as soon as possible. This drug has been used exclusively to keep mobility and such on tap. We typically don't agree with using drugs but perhaps we need to consider there is a 2nd alternative to help people deal with the pain and suffering they have to put up with everyday. It has become very common to see Medical Marijuana used to eleviate paitients results. It is still important to allow you medical professional determin what the best coursce of action would be before self medicating.

Drive I want to take a break

We went to do some visiting last weekend and we had a great time, on the way there the dogs were getting a bit bored so they joined us in the front seat of the van. Breigh spent all her time sniffing at the air units, she must have been tracking here way home in case we get seperated. They were hilarious for a while until they wanted to go cuddle up with the kids

Back off Buddy

We are having a great time having 2 dogs, we weren't sure whether it was a good idea or not but thought it would be good for Breigh to have a companion. At first they didn't get along too well but they grew on each other after a while. They still occasionally have their moments like this one where they don't want to be near each other but most of the time they are trying to figure out how to both crawl into the tiny dog bed that we have.

Warm vacation destination

We are in the final stages of planning our first major family vacation and we are looking forward to spending the adventure together next summer. Once this trip is done we are going to plan a trip to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. We missed out on our honey moon and want to make up for it by heading somewhere tropical. We have been looking at the line of Karisma Hotels along the Riviera Maya. The Hotels offers a choice of 5 different resort options all featuring beautiful white sand and warm days. The different vacation options allow us to enjoy an all inclusive option so we can enjoy our vacation and not worrying about meals and other things. It will be so exciting to get away just the two of us so we can enjoy some quality time together as husband and wife.

The ugly truth

My husband and I went out to a movie together the other night and I have to admit it is the first time we went to an grown up movie together since we first got together 10 years ago. It was nice to get out without the kids for a change and spend some time together as a couple. We will have to try and do this more often, perhaps once a month at least.

BTS in style

It's almost time to start back to school shopping for the kids, it's always fun to take each of the kids out to find them their supplies, sneakers and new clothes. This year my baby is heading off to school which means another one to get ready. When you add it all up we will be shopping for 12 pairs of sneakers to get them back to school. They need to have a pair of outdoor, indoor and gym sneakers each. It will be fun getting them ready and then I'll have the empty nest.

The countdown is on

It is less than 2 weeks before my getaway to NY with my daughter. We have been planning this trip with her Dance Troupe since last September and while it once seemed so far away it is now coming up quickly. We have everything organized and ready to go except packing some clothes. We had a girl shopping trip the other day and had some funny events, the afternoon was her time and the evening was my shopping time. While I had a room full of clothes in the changing room I got kicked out of the store as it was closing. OOOPs, luckily they were nice enough to hold them for me till the next day. We than went to another store that was open later and while I was in the changing room trying on Bra's the power went out in the store and we had to leave again with no shopping done. I managed to get everything the next day so all was well.

Stay tuned: Here he comes

We are heading home to get our new puppy, we have picked out the name and he will be "Riley". Breigh wasn't so sure about him when we went to see him a couple of weeks ago so we are hoping she will warm up to him over the weekend. I will post new pictures as soon as I get them loaded up to the computer.

Medical Supplies Online

Shopping online has become viable for almost any category of merchandise. It is an extreamly useful tool for people to use that are time starved or those that are unable to travel out of the home to do their shopping. A great site that I recently found is called allegromedical.com, this site offers a broad assortment of products from diabetic to medical supplies. If you are searching for products like a wheelchair cushion you can find the best assortment online to satisfy your needs. By visiting Allegromedical.com you can sign up for the Free Allegro eCatalog so you can take advantage of limited time specialties

My Heart is melting

Here is our new little puppy that we visited for the weekend, he will be coming home with us in a few weeks and we are eagerly anticipating his arrival. I love this picture of him, he is so tiny and so cute all at the same time. Breigh was a little put out by him at first but by the end of the weekend she was warming up to him pretty good.

Happy 'B' Day Birdie

The kids aunt came down to visit us this weekend and as it was here birthday we went out to a special dinner at "Jungle Jim's" restaurant. We had a great meal filled with some tasty food and great laughs. It was fun to get together with her on a special B day.

Continuing Education

I always wanted to continue my education after high school but with the demands of motherhood I found it very difficult to commit to a university program. I recently found an online university program designed to help people with time contraints or legistic problems obtain the degree they desire. Capella University has been the leading provider of online degree
programs since 1993 and is currently serving over 20,000 students achieve their dreams on a daily basis. Their programs reach all over the World with students from all 50 states and over 45 other countries.

Water Fun

It was hot Friday adn the kids thought it would be a good idea to get out the hose out and soak each other down. The dog wan't too impressed about water and spent most of the afternoon hiding in the bush. They decided to get Grandpa a new hose to replace his that was leaking terribly

Happy Canada Day!

What will you be doing to celebrate Canada Day this year? It appears that it will be rainy in our area this year so we will have to find some different ideas to keep us busy. Perhaps we will take in a movie at the theatre and have a meal out at one of the kids favorite restaurants. The fire works celebration will be cancelled because of the weather so we won't be missing those.

Planning Vacations

I have always feel like my husband and I missed out by taking our honeymoon as a family vacation instead of romantic adventure. We certainly enjoyed our time together with family and we are at a stage in life that we are taking time to vacation. We are planning a couple of vacations over the next couple of years, one will be a family adventure but one will also be that special vacation for just me and my husband. When looking for vacation options we discovered the Karisma line of hotels that offers vacation destinations for both Adult and Family Plans. The hotels are located on the gorgoes Riviera Maya in Mexico and provide a full range of eminities that you would expect.

Flying High

The kids pulled kites out of the basement before we went away and took them to Grandma/Grandpa's house to fly. They were lucky there was a little bit of wind so they could get them up in the air. They had a blast flying these for almost and hour, the kites met an untimely death by doggy so I had to toss them out in the end.

...And here he is

The main point of our journey home was to see the new batch of beagle puppies and to select our new pup. We picked out a beautiful male and named him "Riley", he is all black down his back and his legs and tail are all white. We will have to wait a few more weeks before he is ready to leave mother but it was nice to get to meet him and spend some time with him.

Don't be leaving me behind

I was packing the other night and had all the kids suitcases opened up on the floor for Matt to finish packing up the last few things. He walked in Breigh curled up in one of the suitcases almost as to say "Don't leave me behind please." Now of course we would never dream of leaving our baby girl behind, especially as we were on our way to meet her new brothers and sisters and pick out a new puppy for the house. Stay Tuned<

Making a pit stop

We were on our way home this weekend and about 1/2 way through our drive 2 1/2 hours into the trip our dog decided to go a bit crazy. She became very restless and started moving between the front and back of the van. She would come to the front and sniff at the air vents then move back to the kids. We decided to pull over and give her a pit stop but this didn't do anything for her, as soon as we got back on the road she started again. We finally figured it out, there was a bag of her treats laying on the floor opened and the AC was pulling the smell up from the floor and through the air vents. It was very subtle that we didn't notice the smell but it sure didn't get by her.

Having some fun

Your never to old to have a little fun, while visiting this past weekend we took the kids to the park to burn off a little energy. Jay was a little hesitant on going with us, he is 13 now after all, the park is for kids. After a couple of minutes there hanging with the Adults he couldn't help himself and he was off onto the swings and climbing around with all the other kids and even joined in on a game of tag around the park before we left.

Christmas Shopping Early

I have been trying to get ready for Christmas early this year and have been doing a lot of shopping online to save time with my busy schedule. With my job at the call centre I have been working a lot and we are allowed to surf the Internet which allows me to do shopping. I recently discovered an online jewelery store that offers all kinds of assortment, colors and styles at really affordable prices. I am looking to purchase costume jewelry rings and ear rings for my Mother and my Mother in Law. They are hard to buy for, but they both enjoy accessorizing their outfits. I am excited to be able to get my shopping done early and right now the site is offering free shipping on my order because it is over $85. I can't wait to see the "Wow" in their eyes when they open the beautiful gifts that I choose.
