So the summer begins...

So glad that school is done. Definately needing a break this year. Hoping to have a quiet summer, poor Ron can't even take his long vacation days like he used to. In previous years he's been able to take all 3 weeks at one time giving him a really nice break. But this year with him being the boss, not going to happen. He's planning on doing a few days here and there. In mid-July he's taking a few days with my dad and uncles to go quadding up by the Fort. Mac. sanddunes. I'll have to make him take the camera :)

So this summer will be lowerkey, which is so okay with me. We are planning to take the kids to Walking With Dinosaurs Live and then head to Calgary to see my brother and his wife. We need to deal with the US consulte to get Ron's passport straightened out if we do decide to go to Vegas with my aunties/uncles.

Hoping to get lots of scrapping done and finish a huge chunk of my braille course and maintain the peace around here. Planning on giving the kids some jobs and such. Now if we could only get some nicer weather.....

soooo very busy....

but I feel guilty that I haven't blogged. Between end of school stuff and finishing up projects, Abby's birthday things have been crazy. Now that I'm on holidays I will really try to be more bloggish...;)

Anyhoo, here's some pictures from Abby's 5th (!) birthday.

more pictures....

These were all taken at the very top of a swing set. Love these pictures....



this was too cool to pass up, I'm not a big fan of honey bees but I love watching them stick their butts out of flowers when getting the nectar.
