Ty and Morgan had a sleepover

Both the kids had a sleepover on Friday night. Morgan had her best friend Ashley over and Ty had his best buddy Cole. It was an early night for all of them as they were all very tired, they were all asleep by 8:30. They made up for it in the morning as they hit the floor running at 7:00. They we getting hungery so we made bacon and star wars pancakes, both went over very well. Ty and Cole both ate two pancakes each and the girls were very excited to pick which star wars charater they wanted. All in all it was a wonderful sleepover and the children were amazing. Morgan and Ty were invited to go for a play date and sleepover at Nana Debs house and had a wonderful time watching movies and playing their new board game that they got for Christmas. Morgan also got busy in the kitchen making brownies, she loves to bake :)
Greg and I had to take our yellow lab to the vet as he has an open sore behind his one ear, he had to have it cleaned out get a shot and is now on meds to help with the infection. He was a good boy when she was cleaning it out and is will to take the meds as long as it is in a peice of cheese.
We spent Sunday just hanging out at the house, cleaning and getting ready for the week a head.

good day to bake

It is a cold day here in Calgary -27 with the wind chill. So I thought it would be a great day to bake. I started at 8:30 am and did not stop till I ran out of butter. I ended up making peanut butter cookies, as they are my husbands favorites, choc chip cookies and oatmeal choc chip cookies. I also made rasberry muffins. The house smells so good right now.

starting 2011 with the best man in the world


Greg and I spent New Year at the community center with our friends. We enjoyed prime rib dinner and dancing to follow. I think the highlight was when my best friend was teaching everyone the triller. After we were done there we went back to our friends house to play a quick game of poker, which eneded at 5:00am, so not so quick.
The kids spent New Years in Olds with my parents where they ate lots of junk food and played with the noise makers.
We meet up with them on the January 1st and brought them back for their new years day party. They had such a wonderful time with their friends eating more junk food and playing games. It was a wonderful way to welcome in a new year.
I have decided to only make one new years resolution this year and that is to spend more time with friends and family.
Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season

first ever blog

So as the new year has started I though maybe I should start a blog.

I knew it was coming as soon as we found out that our second child was a boy.... I have become a hockey mom :)
Ty started last night with the grassroots hockey club. Him and his best buddy Cole are on the same team and we very excited to play. They spent a lot of time on there backsides but as the practice went on they got better and better. Ty is now able to skate for more than 2 seconds with out falling and has mastered getting up on his own. We are all going out tonight to practice some more and then back next Wed. to play with his team again.
Tonight I am going to try and get some video of him skating as I was only able to get a very short one yesterday as the batteries were dead in the camer ( I know I should have taken extra).
