Happy 8th Anniversary:

Well today is our 8th wedding anniversary. It has been a good day so far. We have been just lazy all day so far. It doesn't help that Robbie has hurt his back last week either. To let you all know what has taken place today we have to go back in time a bit.

Well ever since we have been together, Robbie has always talked the talk of getting a Tattoo and not know what he'd like done. I never believed that he ever would get one done. Considering he for one doesn't like blood, pain and needles for that fact. On Friday during the day he heard a song on the radio playing. It was by the music group "Heart- Dog and butterfly" Not thinking too much about it at the time. But come Sunday morning after watching Rocco and myself sleeping. That is when he decided that is what he wanted done for a Tattoo. Since I love butterflies and he loves that little dog. This is what he suggested. I helped a bit due to the fact that he wanted it in cartoon form. There was no way that I was going to look like a "Bart Simpson Butterfly with a gas can" with the saying "no one would suspect the butterfly" Well needless to say we found a pretty butterfly and added my eyes into the wings. It was great seeing Vern from the "Electric Crayon"

worked his magic yet again. Well Robbie finally did it....he got his 1st TATTOO. Thanks Vern for a great job. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY ROBBIE!!!

Chinese Christmas Gift Exchange:


Well this was a 1st for us. Robbie and I went to the "Electric Crayon" http://www.theelectriccrayon.ca/ Christmas Party on Saturday night.
Everyone (almost everyone) dressed up in dresses and suits for the night
We all had a bit to eat drink and laugh. Gracie, Vern, Vern, Charla, and
Jason all looked great as you can see but Jason wouldn't pose for the camera


Gracie
Vern
Charla

The best part of the night was the gift exchange. It was fun to see what people got and what was stolen many many times through out the night. It was a toss up for who would get the MP3 Player, i-pod docking station, margarita mix or the ring. Having lost the MP3 Player too many times and other other 3 items just as many times. I ended the night with the wine glasses, candle holder and snow globe. Robbie brought home a DUCK, sling shot and camera. He is very pleased with his DUCK (Our dog is scared of it though). Thanks guys for a great night. Hope that you all come over for Baja Boxing Day

Decorating for the Holidays:

Well I'd show you some pictures but my digital camera won't download them to my computer. Last Tuesday feeling rather festive I set out to decorate for the holidays. I bought that fake snow for the windows. Made them all look great with lights and all. I then down stairs to get all fun stuff. After what seemed a million and one trips , I finally got started. The christmas tree was the last box up. I set it all out on the couch ,went to find the feet to set it up. NO feet to be found anywhere. So being very sad I set out for Walmart for a new tree. Found a nice "little" tree and came home. Boy oh Boy was it ever a "little" tree even on a stool it looked small I even tower over it. Which doesn't enstill any kind of confidance considering I too am vertically challanged. After being very frustrated I returned to Walmart with the tree in tow and got a tree stand. Finally after 3 very long hours the tree was UP!!! (It was like the 3 stooges in the house decorating and to think it was only me there decorating)

On thursday I had a few friends over to help decorate the tree. Still no pics I cannot get the flash card to even work on another computer. And now the camera won't accept the flash card in it anymore either. HEY SANTA I'd like a new camera for Christmas!!!! Well the tree looks great (thanks Gracie) On Sat night we had a pre-cocktail party at the house for Robbie's work Christmas party. It was fun and a lots of people showed up too. In the end we all ended up back at the house and sat around till 5am sunday morning chatting and having a few cocktails. It was great time. Put me more in the mood for Christmas this year.

Sorry Mom, Dad, and family that we cannot come home this year but our thoughts will be with you! To all our friends and family from Robbie, Rocco and myself , I hope that you all have a very Merry Christmas and a great New Year!!! For those of you sticking around Cold Lake you all invited to "Baja Boxing Day" at our place. It's a potluck of leftovers so please feel free to stop by anytime after 4pm Boxing Day (it's also a byob)



MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR IN 2007
