summer is finally here

So here we are on the first day of summer holidays, and yes no daycare kids until Wednesday. We have just hung around the house mowed the grass and then went for a swim in the pool. Then the kids wanted Slurpee's so we went and got some of those, Alina has lost her two front teeth so had ten dollars burning a hole in her pocket that she just had to spend, so went to the zellers and went to the toy section and she bought herself a bratz baby and animal toy thing. I will never understand the need to have something just to have something. I kept telling her if she saved it she could buy something bigger later, but that seems to far away for her. Tonight James is going to start building the boys bedroom in the basement.Greg is growing up to fast for me and want to have his own space which I understand. Spencer we move down there with him but no more bunk beds. The room is quite large so they will each have half a room to themselves. James and I leave for his brothers wedding on the weekend but it will be nice to have alone time with each other as we drive to Regina and back, then daycare will start back up until the end of July and then I booked the month of August off so holiday here we come it's not to far away. I have put myself back on a exercise and diet to lose the weight that has been bugging me as well as the ten pounds I put on well sending Angela off to start her new life in Alberta. I guess that is all for now ttfn

Happy Fathers Day

 
What would today be if I did not take this opportunity and let dads in my life know how much I love them. First to my dad who has showen me so much love and understanding. It has not mattered if I was calling him to come pick me up from lethbridge or falcon lake he came. When I needed to cry on someone shoulder, if I need to just let things be said he would be there for me. Many of you have seen the quiet giant that I have had in my life, he truly is a man that takes care of my mom does so without ever asking for someone to liten his load. He is a man that showed me that a amn must be half as good as him to be married to.
Lucky for me I found James. He is an amazing father husband and friend. I really don't think that I can say enough to show the world just how great he is. He loves his father in heaven and does all that he can to build and help ouir family have an eternal goals. He is by far the most gentle and lovig father, he rules with his heart and never his fist. He has a gentle manner in talking things trough with our kids they always know how he feels but never quetion where they fit in his life, they know that they are at the top. What would we do with out these men in our lifes? I love the comfort, stength that we have in knowing that we are together forever as a family. Thanks to James and my dad for all that you do in my life and in the lives of my children we are better people because of you!!!

Alina's dance rectial

 
It has been awhile since I've blogged and so much is happening I will try to share a bit over the next few days. First her is Alina at her dance recital this year. It was at the end of may so you can see how far back I need to go. Anyway she was in a ballet tap combo class. She really enjoyed it all the way until rectial and then didn't want to do tap. She was not trilled with the costumes she thought they should fairy princess type. So yes we have decided that maybe she will stick in ballet we are trying jazz this coming year aswell. All in all I think she is an amazing little dancer. She always talks about how she is scared and shy but put her up on stage and I can't believe that it is my daughter up there. Way to go girl you make your mother proud.
