Fav pic..


This is a favorite pic of mine of my hubby..
It was taken on our honeymoon last year...

Love ya Honey Bunny!

Ahhh, the weekend!

Well it's Friday - thank god! hahahah!!

Now, what do we do this weekend! Hmmm....Well I started a list of things that we need to get done by the weekend before the surgery.

TO DO:

- Throw out old tomato plants - clean pots
- Take in trellis
- Wash bedding in both rooms
- Move old Car for winter
- Put away BBQ
- Scrubb floors real good (he's better at it than me!)
- Arrange spare room for Wes (I think he'll be in there for a while once we get home from surgery. Easier for him to get out of bed, plus would be hard for both of us to sleep in the same bed when he needs space for pillows and stuff).
- Put up Christmas Tree! Don't jump too soon here! We're just putting the artificial tree up in the spare room in the corner because Wes is better at donig it than me. He won't be able to do it too soon after the surgery.)
- Take air conditioner out of window, clean and store for winter.
- Get Winter clothes out, wash, and put summer clothes away.
- Paint bathroom
- Clean out spare room closet

So as you can see, there is lots to be done. I want to get all of this done by October 14, because we leave for Fredericton on the 15th. That way when we get back, we don't have to worry about any of it.

My hopeful plans for this weekend would be get winter clothes out, wash and put summer away, take out air conditioner, clean out tomato pots, take in trellis and maybe clean out closet.

I'll update you on Monday how much we actually get done!

Have a wonderful weekend!!

Ever see a face on a pancake before?


Take a good look at this pancake. Do you see a face in it? One day about 2 months ago, Wes made some pancakes for supper. Hopefully you can see the face in it, it's like a dog, cartoon dog. You can see the eyes quite easily, right towards the top of the pancake and perfect circles. Then you see the big snout and the circle of dark stuff in the middle. It looks like a cartoon dog, I swear!

Any Jeff Gordon fans out there?

Check this out! My Honey Bunny made this model of Jeff Gordons car then did a little extra handy man work on it! As you can tell, we're not Jeff Gordon fans! He did an awesome job!



Beach Pictures

Here are a few pics from the beach! It was fairly cold but beautiful on the same hand.

Check the freaky rocks out - the holes in them are perfect!!

A wonderful 1st Anniversary!

Yesterday was our 1st wedding anniversary! We had a wonderful weekend. Kind of kept things on the low-down. Friday night spent the just me and him. Saturday we hopped in the car and took a drive down towards Tracadie. Just before Tracadie we stopped at the beach for a bit. It was quite cold but it was beautiful down there. We walked on the beach and found some beautiful seashells and rocks. I'll have to post a few pics in the next few days from it. We got a little wet from the water as well - trying to clean the shells we found, the waves were very unpredictable! We had a great laugh though! Saturday evening we had a nice supper then went to Brenda's. They bought us a chocolate fudge cake for Sunday. Yummy! Sunday slept in a bit, exchanged gifts, had lots of coffee and reminissed about our wedding day. Then we kind of wrote a little song of the weekends events. It's kind of cute! We had a great supper - pot roast, sliced potatoes, brocolie, green beans, beats. That evening we had a glass of wine and danced to our wedding song - One Friend by Dan Seals. It was a beautiful evening!

Dog The Bounty Hunter

Anyone out there follow Dog the Bounty Hunter? We'll he's in quite deep right now, was arrested by the US Marshall's last week. Not sure if you have read about it or not. There was a special last night on A & E about it called Dog the Bounty Hunter - Family Speaks. This all happened last Thursday - Dog, Leland and Tim spent the night in federal prison. To make a story short, they hunted for Andrew Luster (Heir of Max Factor Cosmetics) in 2003 and caught him in Mexico. Andrew Luster had skipped court and was charged with 87 counts of serial rape. Dog, Tim and Leland found him in Puerta Vallarta, Mexico in 2003. Turns out that Mexico does not allow Bounty Hunting and they were arrested in put in prison for a week. Luster was sent to the US and was give 124 years in prison. Last Thursday the US Marshalls surrounded Dog, Tim and Leland's houses and arrested them. Turns out Mexican Police want them extradited to Mexico to serve a prison sentence! Imagine! If anything, they helped take an American's Most Wanted Top 10 case to prison. It's not fair and not right. If you get a chance, check out A&E for that episode, it explains it better!

I definately don't understand the justice system!

Here is from Dog's website:
Duane 'Dog' Chapman arrested in Hawaii
Thursday, September 14th, 2006 Honolulu
Dog, Leland and Tim were taken into custody by U.S. Marshals early Thursday, September 14 in connection with charges stemming from their 2003 arrest of convicted serial rapist, Andrew Luster.Andrew Luster, the famed heir to the Max Factor cosmetics fortune, was convicted of drugging and raping three women over a four year span. During his trial in 2003, Luster fled the country to Mexico. In June 2003, Dog and his team tracked the fugitive Luster in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, where he was living under an alias, and arrested him.As bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico, Dog, Tim and Leland were arrested by the Mexican authorities andLuster was handed over to the United States government by the Mexicans. He was subsequently found guilty and is currently serving a 124 year prison sentence. Bounty hunting is illegal in Mexico, and Dog, Tim and Leland were arrested by the Mexican authorities. After being released on bail, Dog, his family and team, returned to Hawaii and to their lives as bounty hunters.


Update, Friday, September 15th, 2006
Dog, Leland and Tim were all released on bail on Friday, September 15th, 2006, as the judge concluded they are not flight risks. While out on bail, they will be required to remain in the state and wear electronic monitoring devices until they return to court for extradition hearings to face trial in Mexico. No date has been set for those hearings.

Liberals Won

Well Liberals won last night. That's who I voted for. Figured Lord screwed up enough the past 7 years that we need a change. Shawn Graham is young and seems full of great possibilities. Hopefully he will do as he said throughout his campaign!

How should I vote?

Well today is our provincial election. I'm heading off to vote shortly. But how do I vote? I guess I may be a bit ignorant about politics, it doesn't interest me, although it probably should. Considering my vote may make a difference, or will it? Shall I vote for PC - keep it the way it's been going? Or do I go Liberal and try to get the young blood in?

God Knows..I'm off though, I'll try to decide on the way there!

Almost anniversary time!

Well it's almost our 1st year anniversary. Next week on the 24th we will have been married for 1 year! We're not really sure what we are going to do..We're thinking of taking a nice drive down the river, then come home and make a nice supper, and have a nice romantic evening to ourselves. I plan on picking up a bottle of wine and digging out our wedding song so we can dance to it again. I'd like to make that a tradition on our anniversary - dance to our wedding song. I haven't heard it since our wedding day.

Funny, the year seemed to pass by fast, yet at the same time, seemed like forever to get here. It seems like we've been married for years, maybe because we moved in together so quickly! hahaha..It's all good though, I wouldn't change this for the world!

Wedding Table!



This past weekend's project was the table that we had everyone sign at the wedding. We finished engraving the names and did the center piece. We then sanded it down and stained it. I stained the top twice then put a semi-gloss clear coat on the whole table. It was hard to take a good pic of the whole table, so here are a few pics of the top of the table! It's absolutely georgous!!

Surgery Date!!

Finally - October 17 will be Wes' surgery date! I have that week off so we'll be heading to Fredericton sometime that Monday. Then surgery on Tuesday. Going to be a pretty crazy few days. He'll be in the hospital for 3-4 days, depending how things go. Please pray for NO INFECTION! That is our biggest fear and could the most damage. He'll be receiving a high dose of antibiotics while in the hospital to help prevent this.

I'll be in touch with those from the area as we get closer to the day!

Take Care!

Visit home!

I went up home on Sunday and came back on Monday! It was a nice little visit, fast though! I did my nieces room over, cleaned it out and organized everything for my sister. Here are the pics of her room and a few of her. I wish I would have taken more, I spent lots of time with her, but just never thought! She is the most adorable child ever!!! She is always smiling, no matter what. Here they are:

PS: I made the Canopy for her crib! I sewed little purple, yellow and pink rosebuds all over plus a few butterflies! Looks adorable! If I were to do it over again, I would have gotten more tulle to make it fuller!

Isn't she adorable!!
