Things that have been going on:
1. My Melissa was here!! and her husband Steven! Melissa was one of my Young Women in Winnipeg! and her Family also lived close by, so they were often invaded by the Taylors, something I bet they didn't realize when they bought the house!!! We miss the Orrs! It was so fun to see her and her husband, they are a great couple, and I love to see my Melissa all grown up!!! sorry to busy for pictures!!! but we went to Canada Place, and then Red Robin on Robson.. we are so trendy!
2. My parents have been here!!! first my Dad, and he did a little work on the basement, and took in some real estate. and then my Mom came out to take a second look at some of the real estate my Dad looked at!!!
3. My Parent bought a house and are moving to Squamish, BC!!! How far from me is that? about an hour and a half! When do they come, in about 2 weeks, here is where we sing The Final Countdown!!, and how am i feeling about all this??? I am getting excited! I haven't lived around my family for a while, but I think I am going to Love it!!! I am even willing to go and help my Mom drive the 16 hours to get here... that's commitment!!
4. Shelby left for Washington DC from Seattle Airport, and I have been driving her little jetta around, after my Big Rig, it's been fun, kinda like a teenager again driving my daddy's car, but without all the teenage angst. So with the arrival of my parents, is the good bye to the car, as my dad will probably want to drive his car.... on a similar note, Dale is unchaining me from the house, and he is sending me out to spend a weekend with my Sister, so exciting! But that too couldn't happen without my parent moving here!
5. Mahlon turned 8!! and was then baptized!!! He was and still is pretty excited with his new found responsibility of making the Right choices. Now that he is at the age of accountability, he is quick to say sorry, he wants a clean record.
6. Tirzah turned 2, and was then seriously ripped off of a birthday present & cake!! my badd!! Dale & I took her alone to the states with us and took her for dinner @ Panda Express, she loves the noodles! I took her for an ice cream cone in the afternoon, which she doesn't like, but I felt like it was a good effort!!! I guess that's the down side of being child #5.
7. I've been spending time with my new BFF's Jillian Michaels & Billy Blanks... I have been trying to get rid of the baby weight. It's not fun. Shelby introduced me to Jillian, I've never seen her before. She is mean, but at the end of the work out, she too is glad it's over, that's my kinda girl. But I am in need of some accountability, because I am seriously on the edge of the Brownie Blizzard cliff!!!
8. Grandpa & Grandma Taylor's Trip was postponed this week due to his appendix. All is well, and like the trooper that he is, he drove himself to the hospital. sending lots of love your Way!! XOXOXOXO
9. I found a new Date plan with Dale. Last Friday with went out with our Friends the Gouldings, we went a little Gelato place in Vancouver, and then we went and hung out at the Beach!! I LOVE THIS CITY!!!
10. Kezia got her hair cut off for the summer, now only if Tirzah had some to cut off!!! Too cute!!

So much going on in your life! I am excited that BOTH you & Angela decided to catch up...I live vicariously through you both...Congrats to Mahlon; I didn't release this was #8 - I was stuck in the 7 yr old frame of mind. And VERY exciting to hear about your parents. The house is gorgeous. Does this mean they give up their cottage? Have to admit I have thought of you living in the warmth....I hate hot weather, but 8months of winter weather here in Winnipeg this year is finally getting to me. Sigh. Love you. Cathy Finken
Wow, there is so much good stuff going on in your neck of the woods! And I am so excited for you to have your parents move so close to you, their new house looks gorgeous!
