Happy New Year

Hope everyone had a great Christmas. I have to say I am glad it is all over for another year. We travelled to Saskatoon and thankfully the boys were great in the car...thank goodness for the portable DVD player...but it is such an ordeal to travel with little ones. We are planning to spend the next few Chistmas holidays in our own house!

So, we kept the puppy. His name is Buster and he is a super good doggy! He sleeps all night in his kennel and is doing great with the kids who adore him!

Maybe a Puppy in our Future

We haven't been planning on getting a dog but it is certainly something that is not far from our thoughts. A friend of mine just got this pup a few weeks ago and their other dog (a dalmation) is not accepting this one into the family. Basically has tried to break the poor things neck on more than one occaision. We had the puppy at our place for about an hour and he didn't say word (or bark) and played with the boys, took a pee outside. I'm in love....he's already paper trained and is most definately a house dog. The best thing is that he is a bichon-shih tzu cross (hypoallergenic and non-shedding). He was really calm and wasn't scared at all of the boys. Luca loved him.

Can you tell I've convinced myself?!?!

I HATE BANKS!!

Why oh why do I put up with the horrendous service I get from BMO??? 'Nuff said!

Comments....

Is anybody reading this?? Not getting many comments!!

The House

Time for a picture now that the siding is done! Whatta ya think? We love the yellow. The garage door will be the same color as the trim.

The drywall is done and the cement has been poured in the basement and garage. Now they are taping and texturing the ceilings before Christmas. What a long process!!

Haircuts

Buddies

Luca is really starting to love his big brother! Of course he still loves his "sucky" more than any of us!!

I was thinking a lot about Nana this week as I have been getting Christmas cards, gifts and pictures ready to send home. Nana loved getting pictures in the mail of the boys. I have started a small collection of Willow Tree angels and figurines and I saw this one on Friday. It is Angel of Remembrance and I thought it was perfect to add to my collection in honour of her.
