How can the weekend be over already?
We have had a great weekend and that is so nice after the sadness of last week.
Friday I had the opportunity to speak with my mom for a LOOONNNGGGGG time and she filled me in on everything about my gramma's funeral. It sounds like it was a wonderful celebration. It was so great talking to her.
Saturday Craig played football in the morning and had a really good time. He said he played well and his team won. At 2pm I took Kaedo to P&R's house where he was getting a cooking lesson and then hosting a meal for our family. Kaedo and R (my aunt) made chinese food and he learned all about chopping, dicing, preparing, how to read a recipe and how to present. He loved every minute of it and the food was great. After supper Craig and P watched hockey while the the four of us got the kitchen cleaned up. My aunt had decided that her and I were going to take on the boys in a game of pool and it was hilarious. We laughed our heads off. Aside from her, we all suck. We played two games, and headed out at 10pm. A wonderful night.
Today Craig and I went to breakfast - our usual Sunday date - you can't beat a $2.49 special! When we got back I had the chance to talk to my mom again to iron out some details about Jessica's Christmas/birthday present - that she still didn't have from December. Sterling got in on the conversation as it was about electronics.
We realized we had enough points to head out to the movies, so we did that and it was great. Craig worried throughout the movie that he was going to have to listen to me bitch that it sucked (not my usual kind of show) but I actually LOVED it. We went to a new theater where the sound gets blasted at you. At one point I jumped about 3 feet in the air. LOL.
After the movie we sat in the car while mom called us and we surprised Jessica with her gift (it was from the 6 of us). We sang (which seemed a bit like it was in a round because we weren't in sync AT all, but it was funny). When she opened it, she kept yelling, "Oh My God, Oh My God". It was a good thing we knew she was opening a present. haha. She loved it and we were happy that she finally had her present.
After that a few errands, a few chores and the boys are heading out to volunteer in about 30 minutes.
A new week tomorrow and Craig has a new person starting. We will look forward to tomorrow night when we get to hear all about his day.
Wishing you all a wonderful rest of your weekend and we hope that Spring is on it's way to you. It feels like it has finally arrived here.

Nice hair you guys. Love the gnome photos.
We're not surprised your Chinese dinner was awesome. R is such a great cook and K would have really enjoyed all her instructions. Presentation is wonderful as long as the food is good and we're sure it was.
J was thrilled with her gift and it was great timing as that's what the girlies will be receiving for their birthdays. J will be well versed in it then and will be able to help them out.
What movie did you go and see? Dad won two Cineplex tickets but we haven't really had the chance to do anything with them yet.
Heading back to Lethbridge around 6-7. The adjudication for Emma's solo should be done by then.
Beautiful looking out but quite cold today. Hope everyone has a good week.
Love to all
Love the photo guys! Sounds like you had a great weekend together.
Hope you had a good day today Craig with your new employee and the rest of the family enjoyed their day as well.
We had a day of beautiful sunny, blue sky BUT the wind is darn cold! Our thermometer shows +5 at 6:00 p.m. but I'm sure with the wind chill factor, it's much cooler. The girls at Curves were saying that Friday is supposed to be +18 - think we'll sit on the deck all day and enjoy it!
Getting company Friday from Brookes, AB, they are heading to a memorial funeral in Regina on Saturday and not sure if they are coming back Saturday night or Sunday sometime. Should be a fun time together.
BIG HUGS TO ALL!
