Soccer Saturday

Soccer playoffs, otherwise known as Soccer Saturday. My daughter's team played at 9:00am and they won that game so they had to play at 3:00pm in the semi finals. Between the first and second game she also had swimming lessons. The second game ended in sudden death with each team taking 5 penalty shots. I think it was because they didn't allow time in the schedule for overtime. It would have been nice for them to go on to the final match but 3 games in one day (plus swimming) is a little much for a 5 year old! They had a good season and it was nice to place 3rd. She's excited to play in the summer again. The season starts May 26th.

Until next time...D.

Design Team Update

Well, my head shot was taken last Friday. Another snow storm cancelled the store's midnight crop this past Friday but I managed to work on my "All About Me" page this weekend. It's almost finished--the final touch would be the head shot! I will be dropping it off in the store soon. Check out All About Scrapbooks on blogger. Until next time...D.

Excited

So excited. Our 1st assignment is an All About Me layout. I've been wanting to do one and never have. So here I go! I got to pick out some papers that "reflect me". This is going to be fun!!

1st "assignment"

Stopped in at the store & found out what we're doing this month. Tomorrow night I'll be getting my headshot taken. Blah! But it has to be done.

Post-Christmas Blog

Dec. 28, 2012 Well, 2 days after the "storm" we still have snow. Much of Canada got snow on Boxing Day according to the Weather Network. And (hallelujah!) we got to use our snowshoes today. My husband worked on Boxing Day and because of the storm we didn't do too much, although we did go for a walk in the wind. Other than that, today was the first day that I didn't have to go anywhere or be anywhere following the holiday. I wish I had more days like this! Tomorrow I think we're visiting a friend & their new house. New Year's Eve we've been invited to 2 parties, however I think we will only be able to make it to one. Hope my sister got home today safe & sound. My daughter was some upset that she couldn't go home with her for 14 days. She thinks that my sister and her pets should come and live with us forever. (teehee--5 year olds are so cute sometimes!) Until next time... D.

Dec. 14th - 10 days until the Man with the Bag arrives (if you don't know that song, look it up) and I'm not done my shopping. Nothing is wrapped. I'm almost in full-blown panic mode. I only just got my photo cards printed and addressed today. Most of them will be in the mail tomorrow. Now is really the time when I wish I had powers like Samantha the Witch and could stop time, even for a little while. And if we don't get any snow we won't get to use our snowshoes for the 2nd year in a row. Oh, poop! Guess we'll have to trek up to Huntsville to visit my sister. Now that makes me smile. Until next time... D.
