Day 252 - Happy birthday!!

Day 252 - started and maintained an overcast haze for the day. Shaina was up and gone to polocrosse practice around 9. I took down my decorations other then the tree and Sheldon did a few outside jobs.

Today is a happy birthday day to my beautiful niece Mya, who is 3

and my handsome nephew Asher, who is 1. For his birthday we gave the family tickets to a World Junior hockey game. Being Mr Sociable, he loved the people watching and waving to everyone.

At 3 we headed into town, Sheldon dropped me at Amanda's while he went to wash the skid steer then returned for Asher's party. Kaylin attended but Britt stayed home sick. Shaina came after practice and after most left we played a rousting game of "Crap or Fact!"

Back at home around 9, Shannon came for a sleepover but soon the girls were off to a party then back with friends to play wii at 1 am! After a hot bath, I booked our trip to Jamaica for February!!! WAHOOO
 

Day 251 - Happy New Year!! Welcome 2012!!

Day 251 was a lovely sunny morning. Even sleeping in till 9:15, so quiet out here, no girls, no traffic and one sleepy puppy!

Sheldon did some putzing around outside and penned up the horses while I tried to clean silicone off the glass doors and tidied the house. We even had a bottle drive pickup for the high school cheer team! Shaina and Britt made it home by 3pm. Sheldon and I worked on a couple puzzles (one colorful 300 piece and fun, the next black and white 500 not so fun! LOL)

Just after 4, Auntie Candace and the boys arrived to help us celebrate our annual New Year seafood feast!! It was delicious as usual

 crab, shrimp, lobster and scallops

 served with cheesy potatoes, salad, fried mushrooms and tons of butter! (OK 1 lb actually)

Candace and the boys headed to Calgary where they leave for San Fransisco tomorrow about 8:30. It was then game night for the Kuhn's minus Shaina who was under the weather! At 12:30 Kaylin headed home and we tidied up and to bed at 1 am.
