A month in review...

Wow...I'm sorry guys...I haven't updated my blog in a month...yipes. We have been busy though...I have excuses lol....

This last month we had Dave and Char's wedding...Mucho fun! I don't have any pics though due to the fact that both Ike and I were a part of the wedding party....although I do have some of us girls getting ready...




Then we celebrated mine and my mother's birthdays at Pastry Castle....Very GOOD freshly made desserts!!!! In fact we ordered one piece of each of the 8 or 9 cakes that he had in the display case...lol....and they were ALL good!

Then we celebrated Canadian thanksgiving with a small family dinner and some gametime! (jr. trivial pursuit...we were actually able to answer the questions...lol).

And Then (can you hear that chinese lady from "Dude Where's My Car?" And then, and then, and then...lol) Ike and I celebrated our anniversary this last weekend. He took me to a beautiful bed and breakfast in Winnipeg (sorry I forgot my camera)...it was in one of those massive houses along the river just east of the Maryland Bridge. Beautiful character home complete with creaky hardwood and expensive crown moulding everywhere! We had dinner at Fude on Osborne (Delish), followed by a cheap theatre movie (All About Steve...hilarious), then we played some pool and pinball machine back at the bed and breakfast. The next morning the owner made us fresh fruit cups, banana pancakes, and sausages. Very nice and relaxing! The next day we went shopping and I am nearly done my Christmas shopping (gasp...yep I said it....and I'm almost done!).
Yesterday baby Charlie was born....8lbs 11oz and 19" long (with chubby cheeks according to my mom)....We haven't had a chance to go visit yet.

In between all of this we had to have our windshield replaced due to a boulder being thrown from a semi's tail wind....The thud was sooo loud we both jumped and thought it would come right through the window....The claim was FAST and easy though and the repair shop had it replaced within a couple of days...Good thing cause with the temperature changing those cracks get bigger pretty quickly. What great service....came and picked up and dropped off the van for us too!
Ooooh...I also recently discovered that we have a famous cousin! So I was watching CTV a few nights ago and a commercial came on for St. Boniface Hospital. I noticed a scene where there was a baby in one of those incubator things....and as they panned out you could see a nurse sitting there with her hands in the incubator....Erin?! Sure enough, Lynda confirmed what I saw...Erin is in a commercial for the hospital...crazy eh.
