This will be quick if I can type okay :)
We're having a good couple weeks holidays! Ryan finished his job over a week ago and we went to Red Lake to spend some time with my mom and dad. It was a really good time! We went blueberry picking one evening, went fishing one day, had a couple barbeques and picnics, enjoyed a few walks, wow what a week! Now we are at Ryan's mom's place, Ryan is helping his brother with harvest, driving truck. I am hanging out with Emma, and maybe going over to Dwayne and Laura's to help paint today. We'll see how that goes.
It was good to stop in at Pakwash on Sat. am, it was fun to visit with some good ol' friends. It was fun to visit with you Jenni for a little bit, how is Josiah doing? HOpe it continues to go well and that you had a good weekend.
We had a Emma weighed yesterday, she is 19.1lbs, and is 27 3/4 inchs, according to the charts she's short - hehe, not a bad thing I gues.
Okay dokey better get going. I promise pictures next week, we have some good ones :)

Real busy right now
Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. We've been real busy and I guess sitting at the computer doesn't have too much priority.
Our church hosted a bbq at the Mission (the street people) tonight so we have been gone. I have Stephanie come on Tuesdays for lunch, this morning I made Salads all morning for tonight. Tomorrow I have to clean our little apartment and make Cakes for Thursday. Thursday is Emma's birthday and we have invited the church and some of our friends over for cake and ice cream. I don't know any other ladies here in town so we invited who we knew. This weekend we are heading to Red Lake so I have to try to get ready for that. We are planning to camp at Rushing river for the weekend and then head home on Monday. Ryan will hopefully be a little help over at Jeff's. I want to go blueberry picking- mmm! The following week we will be in Roseau for a few days. We want to help Dwayne and Laura with their new house (painting, flooring, etc.) so it will a few days before postings. I have some great pictures of Emma! She had beets the other night, wow, she was beet purple!! hehehehehe. SOO anyhoo, just to let you know where we'll be at.
Rach, would love to get together with you if youmove north!!

I'm bored today
I've been NOT busy for one day and now I'm bored. I don't feel like doing laundry or cleaning, but I guess its okay to have a day like that from day to day.
Our apartment stinks of cigarette smoke, the guy next door smokes like a chimney plus he has really bad body odor!! Even if he goes out into the hall it wreakks up the whole hallway, elevator etc. I'm not sure what to do. I've complained already to the landlords, but they are not in town so its a bother to deal with it. They say they can't do anything about it. I don't believe that. They say that it used to be okay to smoke in the building and now a year later its a non-smoking building that those tenants still can smoke. Does that sound right??? I don't think so, I say phhoowee!! We live right next door to this guy and it really smells our place pretty bad too. Any ideas ladies??
by the way thanks for the advice Iris on changing the comment setting, hope it works better now.
As for the weight loss thing, I'm still pretty motivated which is really good. I was down before and would like to see the same results again (but who wouldn't like to see results ? :) )
Went to Graceton this past weekend, saw Jeff, Wendy and chilens, Derek and Elise, Jake and Amelia. It was nice to hang out together, the kids had fun just playing around the treee while us adults visited, I have to say thought it was HOT!! yikes. I had fun sleeping in our new tent, its big but very nice. Emma and I slept together the first night, she slept next to me like glue, but I suppose it didn't have anything to do with my weight vs. hers - hehe. The second night Ryan came, and I made Emma a little bed, she slept in it all night - wow! I said we should set a tent up in our little yard here - right in the middle of town, main street! okay maybe not. Jeff and Wendy were able to get all their windows for their house for an awesome deal!! A 90% savings on what they were quoted in Red Lake, cool huh??
I have to tell you also that God was merciful to me on the way down. I was in a little accident. I was travelling behind this lady and I set my cruise, turned my head for a moment to check on Emma, and when I turned back she had stopped and was going to turn. AHHH!! I slammed on the brakes and swerved around her, unforturnately my back end (of the car) came around and took us across the highway into the ditch. We were okay and Emma woke up, looked at mee like what's going on. A few people stopped to help us out. A very nice man (a grandpa) with 4X4 stopped pulled us out, and we were on the road again. All in about 20 mins. God was good, I was so thankful that God protected us. Kind of reminds me of your accident Rhon. I was alittle shaken but not too bad.
Any way. Thanks all for the comments I will try some pictures soon.
