Its getting close

We are now down to 9 days...well....8 days...today is almost over. VACATION! I can't wait.

Its sad tho....Doug is trying to get in as much work as he can before we go. So he didn't even get a chance to come home between trips this time. I SO SAD..........

Bag is almost packed. Still need a few things. Must do laundry the night before we go so my son has clothes to wear... and Doug...lol... Also need to pick up a few necessities...

...like sunscreen, sunglass, and a beach towel.

YES!!! I'm rubbing it in!!!

Ok. So now I have a few things to share.

Our sledding afternoon!

The dog being crazy.

Always a nut job.

And here are some layouts that I've made recently. LOVING the scrapbooking...

A NEW BLOG

Hello all my loyal followers, all 8 of you. LOL....

My friend and I started a new scrapbooking blog. The Scrap Yard. We are having a weekly scrap challenge. We are going to pick a theme and/or sketch and that is what the challenge will be. So come check us out

Ok so on a sad note. I am SO mad at my sister lately that I've deleted her as a friend off facebook. I have enough issues with my self image, depression, or just being down in the dumps that I've decided I don't need to listen to all her "poor me" ranting and raving. If it ain't one thing its another with her. Poor me my kids are sick. Poor me my husband is a trucker and never home. Poor me I live in a shit hole. Poor me I'm home with two bratty kids. Poor me I live in 'this' town. LIKE COME ON! She is only in that position because of herself. And you know what makes her complain more.....is that she KNOWS that she is in this position because of herself. AHH! so I am no longer talking to her....for now.... Ok so I have that out...I feel BETTER...

Adios mousey....

Today was my brother-in-law's 40th birthday party today and his wife and kids had a party for him. We had a pretty good time. Had steak, scallops wrapped in bacon, roasted potatoes and veggies, and cake. Great day and good food and friends. After everyone else left my BIL had to go out and get some game card for their kids computer game so I went with them. We stopped at the river to see the Pelicans. I didn't believe that you could have Pelicans in the Prairies. Who would have thought. Well it was a perfect time to go for a little walk. We saw deer, birds(lots of robins), rabbits, beaver in the river, and pelicans. It was great. So here are a few pictures that I took. Hope you like...

So after the party we came home. It was quite late. Way past "the boys" bed time. So I got him in bed and then sat down for a little me time. Then I remembered that I should check the mouse traps. The little bastard set the trap off last night and ate all the peanut butter. Well we got 'em today! HAHAHAHA.......This little bugger was so fat and big. I don't think I've ever seen a mouse that big. As I sit here typing this I can hear rustling going on. I'm not sure if its another mouse or if its the kitten playing. So I think I will set another trap tonight and see what happens. Always better to be safe than sorry.....
