Here are a few photos of Victoria being silly. We met with her teacher yesterday and she had lots of great things to say. She showed us her spelling and writing from the beginning of the year and what Victoria has been doing lately and the difference is amazing! She said she's a social butterfly and is chatty (gee who knew?) but that she's doing great. The class went skating today and she was pretty excited about that too. :)

its been a while

Well, my new job is going well. I'm putting in a lot of hours as I am working 6 nights a week. The people I work with are really nice and they are fun to be around. So far I am enjoying it. They opened on my birthday so I didn't do much on that day. Matt and some of my family bought me a Canon 8 MP digital camera (the same as Aunt Marion and Uncle Gary) so I was pretty excited about that to say the least!!!! Matt also had a gorgeous arrangement of flowers sent to my work (I was so surprised!) for my birthday. All together now, awwwwwww. Victoria had her third swimming lesson this last Saturday and she is doing really well. She loves it! She is also reading quite well now. There are a few books that she brings from school that she reads to me at night before bed. It's amazing!
Below are a few shots with the new camera!! Lucifer and my flowers from Matt :)

zee blizzard has left zee building

We got quite a bit of snow last night. I had to shovel my way out to pick up Victoria from school. Not that it mattered at all because I got stuck on the way back in anyway. All of you people who are basking in the sun right now, STOP LAUGHING!
Here's the pooch playing in the snow. Notice how her entire legs are missing?

My Painting

Here's an oil painting on canvas I did a few weeks ago on PEI. I painted it from a picture on a birthday card. I haven't signed it yet cause I don't have the right brush to sign it but it turned out pretty good for my first painting :)


Grey's Anatomy is the greatest show on Earth

Just thought I'd clear that up incase there was anyone who didn't already know that.

So, we did end up getting a bit of snow and very high winds but it turned into rain, got really warm and all melted. School was a go. Apparently I am starting my new job this weekend. Just sittin' here waitin'.

Prepare to get snowed in!

Apparently we are going to get the remains of the storm that just went through Ontario. I'll bet school will be cancelled tomorrow!

Victoria had a great time at school today for Valentine's Day. She came home with bags of cards and candies. She has sparks tonight so she is hoping the snow doesn't come until after 7pm!!

Matt was out to the WildCats game last night. The guy who lives beside us asked him to go. So he was able to get out and do something which is nice. Such a shame that Moncton lost to PEI 4-2! Woohoo PEI! Matt's got a new pair of glasses too. They look great. We'll have to take some photos and post em.

I am waiting impatiently to hear when I am going to start my job! I am hoping for this weekend. There is a Bridal show on Sunday that I am planning to go to and another one next weekend in Halifax. I've never been to one so I am looking forward to that!

Blogs all over!

After uploading new photos from Christmas, I was just about to send them off in an email and realised what a pain that is. So, here I am starting ANOTHER blog. But, it's so true that it is so much easier than huge emails and hoping not to leave someone out and uploading and downloading pictures bla bla bla. So, here is our new family blog. Enjoy.
