Welcome 2011!

Wishing all of our friends and family a wonderful 2011!

Merry Christmas!!!

Merry Christmas family & friends!

We spent yesterday basically just nibbling, opening gifts and having a ball looking at all the new things... especially Spencer. Our decorated Christmas tree took center stage. I will put up photos in the next few days.

We had a traditional dinner; turkey, dressing, gravy, mashed potatoes and squash. The dressing SUCKED since this year I tried to cut one step and a bought a pre-dressed turkey. NEVER again! I'd rather take the time and at least make something edible. We did however enjoy our turkey dinner with our next door neighbours this year as they tend to celebrate here in Elkford instead of at the house in Calgary. That ment that Spencer had another 5 year old to play with all afternoon!

We're off to Lethbridge today to take advantage of the Boxing Days sales. I'm hoping to get a new laundry set today since they have so many good deals on today. Wish me luck!

Wishing you and yours a very merry holiday!

Exhaustion and Pain

Now that the stress of actually getting everything ready to actual occupy the house is over, the exhaustion and physical pain has come. I am exhausted to the point of collapse today. Every single muscle in my body is screaming pain and sleep right now. I actually laid down for a nap this morning because I just couldn't function.

We got most of the big stuff moved into the house last night. We got our bed, Todd's dresser, Spencer's bed and the washer & dryer in the new house. We really only have my dresser, the couches and the table to take over. The neighbour came in last night from Calgary and he's going to help Todd move the couches. They literally have to be taken out of the house through the front window. At least they will be easy to put in the new house... right through the patio door!

My goal today is get the kitchen cleared out and in the new house and as much of the clothes taken over plus maybe some of my scrap stuff. It will be the last to go over though. Priorities for comfort right now run first and for most!

Off I go...
