Keeping Busy

There has been quite a bit going on in the last few weeks.  Tim came home and it was great to see him, and hear all about the living in Mexico.  It seems funny to think of people living there, and not just going to Mexico for vacation. 

The Birthday party was fun, Barb came out, well as Holly Clint and Lindsay, some friends and T,G and I.  One of the friends brought a bouncy castle, so the kids had a riot playing with that.  And of course the trampoline, a kiddie pool, sandbox were all put to good use too.  Grady was too tired to stay up for cake, so Kane got the honours of blowing out the candles and cutting it.

Friday night Tim, Court and the boys came over for supper, we had appies in the back yard, yummmm.  It has been fantastic weather here, and no mosquitos to speak of so sitting outside in the evening is wonderful.  Saturday morning we left for Edmonton and a performance of Wicked with Grace and Dallyn.  That was great too, I have seen the play several times and I still love it.  I thought this Elphaba was better than the last time it came to Edmonton.  Saturday night we went for supper with Grace and Dallyn at Craft Beer, many many different kinds of beer.  I had a raspberry one, Geoff and Dallyn had little samplers of six different kinds.  After supper everyone but me went over to the Street Performers festival.  I went back to the hotel and read on my chaise lounge.  Sunday morning we met Allison, Grace and Dallyn, Sam and Nancy for breakfast at deDutch.  Very good to see everyone and catch up. 

On Tuesday Courtney and the boys came over for Grady's birthday supper, Geoff made a stirfry and I made the cake.  Kane helped his brother out by blowing out the candle and Grady seems to like chocolate cake.  Tim skyped in, and help sing Happy Birthday to Grady, another good time.


You can see it the background how well the garden is doing.

Jude moved here with the understanding that we have regular appies suppers but it turned out that was the first time. She said we got her here under false pretences.

ha ha! looks like a fun birthday for both the boys and Baba! glad your having a nice summer. Your garden is lovely. The heat here has been a bit hard on mine - plus it has not had much weeding due to the above. Great visit with Fred and family - those girls are very sweet and active. had forgotten how much fun babies are

I forgive T&G for luring me here under false pretences, cause they also feed me stir fry soup!
