Mushroom at Niagara Falls

Well I finally did a scrap book page, this is the first one since I came home. The photo of the mushrooms was taken in Niagara Falls this summer. It is simple but I think effective!

Just Saying Hi!

Last week flew by, I can not believe we have been home a month already. Last week Jen and I had lunch with Barb Newton, it was nice catching up and seeing her photos of David's wedding. On Tuesday we had the motor home windshield replaced and then on Friday we had to take it to Penticton for service. We had a doctor appointment on Wed. and it was all good news for Ernest there. My birthday was on Saturday!

Saturday morning Ernest asked if I wanted to go out for Brunch, so we went to Ricky's and then we just came back home and I did some work on my Photo Book before dinner. We had dinner at the seniors hall, a fundraiser meal put on by the KDAJC (Kelowna and District Association of Japanese Canadians). After the dinner we went to the Casino, I had won $110.00 the day before in Penticton so I put it all back into the slots in Kelowna! Ernest did not win anything at either casino. On Sunday we went to Enderby to watch our two granddaughters play RINGETTE! They both won their games, Keeli got 2 goals and Kiana scored 3 goals. Ken and Jennifer took us out for dinner on the way home, what a nice treat!

Since we were busy all last weekend we are celebrating my birthday at Marnie and Brad's home this Sunday. Brayden and Mikayla will be coming home to Brad on Sunday so we can all be together for a fun night.....maybe we will play cards or something with the kids.

Here is a photo of Meeca and Brayden, they were goofing around and I took the photo....it is not a good picture, kinda out of focus but I think it is cute......It is in my heart as you can see!

News Flash!

Ernest passed a Kidney Stone! Here are a few photos of it, I hope it does not gross you out too much. It is not much smaller than the kernel of corn! The pea is a Wasabe pea!

Catching Up!

Here are some photos at some family events since we came home. So far three of the six grand kids have managed to be sick at school so we have been called to the school to pick them up, boy it is nice to be needed!! Anyway here are just a few snaps to look at, including Brayden's hairy leg!My brother has his birthday October 4th. Ernest and I went to Veron to go out for dinner with him and his daughter & son-in law. Sharon, his wife was in Vancouver visiting her mother. Here are a few photos of our visit with him at his daughters home.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

Busy Doing ?????

We have been home for a week and it seems like we were never away!

We have been busy with Dr. appointments for Ernest, today we went to see his eye specialist. He has a bit of trouble driving in the dark, the Dr. says he has the start of cataracts just like 90% of people his age. He also has uneven pressure in his eyes and has to go back to see the Dr. on October 9th. He was told the pressure thing could cause glaucoma. Ernest has had a busy 3 days, he picked apples for a friend on Saturday, golfed 18 holes on Sunday and this afternoon he picked apples again after his Dr. visit. He is going again in the morning!

We had the kids Sunday night, we had appies and then played "BUNKO" and continued to snack though out the evening. It was so much fun playing the game and watching the grandkids have fun with the whole family, well almost...Ernest and Meeca were not here so we got 2 spares. Keeli and Mikayla are the most competitive of the family, they were entertaining to watch. I think even Brad and Ken enjoyed the game! Marnie and Jen are "BUNKO QUEENS" as they play twice a month with two different groups. We all agreed to play it again so that is good.

I have been working on a photo book of our trip. I do not know when I will get it done I am still doing YUMA! Oh well, I will just keep going and one day I will have it! Oh ya, speaking of our trip....the lady we met in Newfoundland phoned me today, boy was it hard to understand her accent on the phone. I send her a scrap page I did of us when we met her, she was very pleased with it and phoned to say thank you! I guess she showed it to her friends and family because she said "everyone likes it".

Well enough babbling, I better go to bed. Sorry no photos, I was going to take them of the grand kids playing "BUNKO" but I was too busy playing myself! Maybe next time. I did take a photo of Brayden's hairy legs but I do not think you want to see it (nor will he want you to, ha ha!!!) Good night!
