My 61st. Birthday

Well my birthday celebrations lasted almost a full week. I had special lunches with friends and family. I also had some dinners out and a nice family dinner at Brad & Marnie's home. My final celebration was dinner at the Great Wall with the family and then we came back here to our home and played BINGO! What a great time, I love these evenings with my family. I let the kids take the photos so here is a few of them.... they just pass the camera around and snap snap snap!

Kiana singing on Father's Day 2009

Kiana just started guitar lessons with her school class at the first of June.
Kiana is in grade six, she just turned 12 on June 17th.,
with her birthday money she bought this used guitar
for $110.00 including a great case.

Kiana went online herself and found instructions on how to play this song "Crazier" by Taylor Swift.
She tells me there were pictures of a guitar with dots on it showing where to put your fingers
and that is how she taught herself how to play this song.
Since she was three years old and in pre-school we always told her she had a beautiful voice.

So within three weeks of first holding a guitar, here is our granddaughter
playing and singing for us on Father's Day 2009.
I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Good going Kiana, we are so proud of you, we love you!!

Meiko's 80th Birthday

We missed celebrating with Ernest's sister Meiko in February, she had her 80th. birthday. Talking to her and looking at her you would knock off 10 years easily. She asked me to put Ernest and I in her photo that was taken at the party. I am not very good at this, but here is what I came up with. I just wanted to post a photo of Ernest and his siblings so here they are!

Nana's time to bragg...Meeca's Dance at Kelowna Community Theatre

Here is Meeca dancing with her
school dance team. A couple of the
videos look black but once it starts
they are good. In this first video
she is the one in the center
of the front row.



Below is my favorite game of hockey!
Meeca is #7 with orange socks! It is
dark just till they turn on the lights.



Meeca is the center of the three girls.



Here is another....wait for the lights
to come on!



This is the last one.......

Chocolate Fountain



The first time we used the fountain we did not put enough oil in the chocolate, see how well it flows in the next photos....we put in more oil.





A friend gave us the "Chocolate Fountain" for Christmas and needless to say it is a big hit with the grandkids! Thank you KIM and DENNIS!!!!
