The Beginning of Something Wonderful!



Let's just say that I am a little bit excited that we are finally able to start building our family home. We're building on the North end of the Taylor Street Chapel in Raymond. My new house should be finished and ready for us to move in June 1st this year. Check out the pics of the hole in the ground and the footings. They should be starting the basement on Monday......so exciting!!!!!!

Aylish's Hospital Experience



Aylish got tubes in her ears last week after months of ear infections and a burst eardrum. The procedure was only 5 minutes and other than the heart wrenching SCREAMS when they took her away from me - you'd never have known anything had even happened to her. She came out of the recovery room (10 minutes after they took her away from me) totally fine and running around. All of the other kids who had it done were sleeping, groggy and crying...is there nothing that can slow this kid down? Don't be fooled by her sitting still drinking her bottle - this was merely for effect.....I told her to look like she had just come out of anesthetic for the purpose of a good picture.

Carly & Adam's Wedding




On January 22nd, my baby sister Carly and her handsome prince got married! Yay. It was so fun having the family all fly over from the UK - just wish they could have stayed longer. Although I don't have any pics of the bride and groom (I forgot my camera) here are a few shots of my girls in their bridesmaid dresses and furry shrugs that Gramma made.

Christmas 2009


For Christmas went returned to Wales to spend the Christmas break with family and friends. We had a 'splendid' time!

Shannon was spending the day at Nanny Worsey's so she's missing but this is a picture of Richard, Keira, Rylee and Aylish at Southstack near Holyhead Anglesey. It was SOOOOO freezing that day.

How about trying to get all four girls to pose by a British Telephone box...what a joke. Here's our best attempt!

Here's Richard and the girls in Caernarfon Castle. Again, another freezing day - even for us hardy Canadians, dang the damp can be SOOOO COLD!

Slap my hands and call me lazy!

So here I am again, this time I'm going to try REALLY hard to keep my blog more up to date. We just purchased a beautiful new iMac which will help me tons, our old "PC" was a "Piece of Crap" and wouldn't allow me to do ANYTHING. I have so many things that I want to share with everyone, exciting news and so many wonderful pictures. So, without further hesitation, let our story begin.....again.
