Auf Wiedersehen

We have been busy the last few days getting Mom and Dad ready to go on a trip this week to Calgary and Victoria. Dad has been away alot the past year so it's nice that Mom and Dad are able to spend some time together this week (after Dad's meetings are over in Calgary!)


Please pray that the flights go well and that they have a great time. Victoria should have nice spring weather this time of year...

Announcing The Birth of Lina Elizabeth...

... born March 29th 2011 at 10:14pm - weighing 7lbs 12oz.

We had Alexia all day Tuesday while Leah was having the baby. Mom was at their house for the morning with her. Mid afternoon Mom brought her back to our house for dinner and her bath. It was great to see Alexia as we have missed seeing her every day! Here is Alexia on my iPod, looking at pictures of herself...

She was in a wild mood

She was having lots of fun!

Daddy (Nathan), Alexia and baby Lina

So much love

Congratulations Leah and Nathan! We are so happy for you.

"Amazing Grace"


Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost, but now I'm found,

Was blind but now, I see.

Dinner Conference, Scott's Concert, Tea Dance and More!

Last Thursday, my boss called and wondered if I would like to come to a dinner conference in Ottawa with her that evening. It was a very nice buffet dinner. While we were eating, a naturopath gave a talk for Natural Factors (a natural supplement company) about some of their latest products. It was nice to learn more about what I am selling! Friday night was Scott's last concert of the year with the OUO (Ottawa University Orchestra). Shawn and I went early to save seats for Mom, Dad, Nana and Papa. Uncle Robin and my cousin Leah were able to come as well. Dad had been in Toronto for the last part of the week. He drove home Friday afternoon, had dinner and then drove Mom, Nana and Papa into the concert. Busy day. The orchestra played a very long piece, "Brahm's German Requiem". There was a large choir of close to 120 people. There was two vocal soloists performing as well. It was a great concert. I'm so glad we were all able to go.
This afternoon, the last tea dance of the season was held at the Almonte Town Hall. The Women's Institute always does the tea, sweets and sandwiches for the dances. I went to work with another lady this afternoon. There was lots of people out today to dance. It's fun to watch all the different couples dancing.


This past week I finished my e learning! I only have two more driving lessons before I can take my G2. I am looking forward to having all this done... and being able to just drive. I booked my test this week for April 20th. Please pray that everything goes well and that I'm not too nervous...



I have started another blog, Quotes about Life, Love and Faith. Some of you may have noticed the link on my sidebar. It's a place that I can put all the quotes that I find. Feel free to go over and take a look!
Also Shawn just started a blog A Gentleman's View. Go over and take a look! Have a wonderful week everyone!
