The sweet host and future sister in law-- Jackie Gullacher!!! p.s. Thanks for including us in the awesome party. What a blast, full of fun and lots of laughs!!!

Some of the ladies......
The best fashion show of all times..... Above is Leanne J. She was our other bride to be! She is displaying our Poopoochichi Car Wash look.

Andrea's unique train.... and Deana's somewhat scarce scantily clad dress... :) it seemed to keep falling off every breath she would take. Sorry about the misfortune Deana...

To her dismay...... she was finished third. Poor Deana, couldn't even 'fend for herself! You're a great actress Deana!!!!
Andrea learning the appropriate method of carrying her bouquet down the aisle...

Girls are spice and everything nice!

Congrats Andrea.... good luck in your last days before you tie the knot!!!

Baby numero uno

I failed to put these posts in order... so I will explain. You will see the post below this one should really be dated for April 14th, as that is when l'il Keonna was born. The post I am currently working on is a post that should have been done on April 11th!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO BRIAN AND JEN!!!!! They had a baby boy on April 11th. The l'il puddin is sooo cute too. Jayden Brian weighed in a 10 lbs and 9 oz. Basically he decided that he would 'skip' the new born stage.

I was anxiously waiting for Jayden to arrive.... so thanks to Judy for keeping me posted. I felt like I was part of the fam' again :)

Judy also went down for a the week to help Jen out! I don't envy the sleepless nights at all. Hopefully I can get down there soon to have my share in 'helping out' soon too Jen. Whenever she excepts me that is...... :) just kidding.

Here is a little picture of Jayden......


Jen, do the cowboy boots fit him yet? seeing as he has skipped the newborn stage, maybe he'll even be up and walking in them soon???!!!! rrrrrrrrrright.

We wish you all the best Brian and Jen. Feel free to drop him off at Auntie Sally and Uncle Dean's for the weekend next time you come to visit your rents Jen!

BABYLAND!!!

Seems like there are babies everywhere now! A week ago today, we are new aunties and uncles again!!!! Dean's sister Janine and her husband Kurt Carpenter had a baby girl. They have named the little peanut "Keonna Ruth". Dad was here for the night last night on his way through Stoon to AB to spend the weekend with them & mom sinc of course! Mom went out out on Monday this week to help Janine out. I am sure the time flew by to both mom and Janine. A l'il jealous here that mom was able to spend a whole week out there!!!! I know Janine would have appreciated your help very very much and probably wishing you could stay longer!


Here are a couple of pictures of little Keonna and the new rents!

Still Alive........

Hello Blog Readers.... sorry it has been sooooooooo long. You were probably thinking we fell off the face of the earth or something. WRONG! We're still here, its simply the business of life that I haven't had a chance to sit down and keep you informed. So much for 'keepin in touch'.... I can't even keep up with the blog.

There has been lots thats happened in the past few weeks that I have pics to post for you.... so keep stoppin' in and I will pledge to you to keep you more up to date! See this comic below? This is 'how up to date' I feel with this whole blog thing.... at least I won't get notified on our blog if I am ever fired! rrrrrrrrrrrrright.

Soooo in love...

Today was such a good day. It was Friday to begin with! The weekend was about to start...

After work, Julie had her first Epicure Party!!!! I got her hooked on it, and now she is selling it! If you have never heard of Epicure, it is a spice and herb company that started in BC Canada. They are unique because a lot of today's spices and herbs have preservatives and additives in it. Epicure has no MSG/additives or preservatives and it is 100% Canadian. I just hosted my own party a couple of weeks ago and am about to start a cooking show! Just kidding.... But I am really excited about cooking now and able to make quick and healthy meals! For more info you can visit www.epicureselections.com. If you are interested in hosting a party or buying product.... ASK MY SIS! She can be reached at home 933-9672 or cell 612-0633.

Here is a pic of the spread that mom put on last night for the taste testing party...

So after her l'il party at mom's last night, Sheldon and I worked on some FIN numbers (Financial Independence Number..... if you have never heard of such a thing, let me know and I can show you how it works in less than half an hour!!!) Once that was over I finally came home to my lonely hubby around midnight....

Look what I found when I walked in the door.....

SURPRISE!!!! It is getting close to our Anni and my hubby thought he would surprise me ahead of time rather than on our actual date. Feb. 18th. Hard to believe it is 2 years already!!!!!

Saturday morning we will be on our way to the LARGE TOWN OF OSAGE!!!! UNCLE LYLE IS HOME!!!! Uncle Kelvin, Aunt Elaine and Tim and Carla have been kind enough to share him this weekend!!! :) We look forward to being down there. Not only have we not seen Uncle Lyle for a few years... it has been quite some time since we have been to the Shultz farm too!

Next weekend we go to Edmonton to visit Uncle Kent, Aunty Cynthia and family! Saskatchewan is finally moving up in the ranks and get a FAMILY DAY NOW. That means we actually have a long weekend in February now too. Can't complain....

Dreary Winter Days...

Its seems like we have been pretty spoiled this year with a pretty mild temperature this winter, but man.... WHATS WITH THE SNOW WE KEEP GETTING? Today reminded me of the blizzard we had on January 10th. We weren't storm stayed today, but the blustering wind and poor visibility, cars in the ditches due to icy roads, etc. etc. etc. gives me the same chills all over again. It makes me crave a fire place in our home and a cup of hot chocolate and some time to read THE COACH by Art Williams.

We really can't complain, but honestly, I can't wait until spring time now. It really does make a person feel thankful for the four seasons. Each year, you appreciate the change of seasons that much more.

Here are some pics from January 10th that I never did get posting... The top two pictures are on our property. The second picture, you can see how far the snow is up against the condo building, half way up the door... The last picture is mom and dad townsend's house. Dad had to buy a special shovel to get all this snow off of their drive way and pile it up on the mountain of snow that was already there!!

Happy Birthday Mama Bear

Today was a good day... We celebrated it with one of our 'favoritist' ladies known!!!
Happy Birthday Mom -Townsend that is!!!! I hope you enjoyed your special day....

"ahem.... will you be eating that?!" lol..... k, Shrek!

Love ya lots!!!!!! s&d

Nervous about this blog thing...

I feel a little 'weirded out' about signing up for this blog thing... but the more I think about it, what a great way to keep in touch! Especially when life seems so busy and it seems like we are never home. This 'blog thing' seems pretty intense and addicting... I think I have lots yet to learn, although I think I will catch on soon enough.
