Yeah, I’m like – *checks calendar* – 5 days late. Meh. I had a busy weekend.
Over the weekend I celebrated my boy’s 6th birthday, celebrated Canada Day at Diefenbaker Park with my family, helped my sister move into her new place, cleaned my room, and went to a powwow in Poundmaker. Good times. But as you can clearly see, it was a very busy weekend.
So, let’s go over this one at a time, shall we? :)
My little boy is getting bigger! How did he get to be SIX already?! Oh, man. Crazy! He had a good day though. He woke up to his first present, a video game I bought him called Ninjabreadman. :P He’s totally in love. I had given him his other video game as an early present because I couldn’t wait. lol It was a Where’s Waldo game. Both are for the Wii console.
On July 1st (aka Canada Day here in the Great White North), we packed our SUV with my sister’s things and moved her out to Saskatoon, which is also where there’s a big to-do every year in Diefenbaker Park with fireworks, a free concert, food booths, and all sorts of awesome things. It was a bit pricey, but anything for my handsome little guy!
We had a lot of fun, and I got some great pictures of the fireworks, and the kids had a ball on the rides. Not to mention, the food was aaaaaawesome! :D
I’m sad that my boy is getting so big, but I’m also happy to see him grow and evolve over these past few years. It’s a true blessing. I thank his parents every day for their gift to me.
*sniffles*
Anyhoo … now that my one sister (the youngest one) is out and into her new place, I have my OTHER nephew coming in. :) At least for a few days. My older sister is off to Hawaii for her brother’s wedding (no relation between that brother and I – long story), so my younger sister (the one who lives with me) are going to keep her son for a bit. Confused yet? Excellent. lol
Let’s just go with this: I have a ton of sisters and lovely nephews, all of whom I love and cherish deeply. lol So yes, I’ve been terribly busy lately! And in between all this, my sister (the one who lives with me) hurt her ankle and has been hobbling around on crutches, my kids finished the school year (both passed – yay!), and I went to Calgary for the conference AND to Meadow Lake for a day to teach an ITE class. WHEW!
Oh! And my computer at home up and died. I still need to fix that. :/
I think I need to lie down for a bit …
