Shopaholic

We just got back from a shopping spree in Syracuse and the Waterloo outlets.....love getting new clothes. I bought so many nice new wok clothes from banana republic and the loft.....love it. Not a lot of deals for the kiddies through.....bummer. I went with a few friends and laughed the whole time. Today I am resting my abs! I went back online to face crack to check out my girlfriends wedding pics that I had to miss. Oh my god she was so beautiful. it's so funny how much the style changes I mean we are only married 6yrs and pretty much feel out of date. Oh well that's how it is. Well back to my laundry Xo brittaney

One more year!!!

Tomorrow is my 29th birthday, it feels like just yesterday I was celebrating my 20th birthday...i was so sad that i was no longer an official teenager!!! Pathetic in the big picture. I am currently uploading a song list to i believe its called a MP3 player....i feel so out of date because i don't know what i'm doing or even whats it called. And yes my song list sucks because i don't know the names of the artists or songs. If you have any suggestions let me know as i need some tunes for work. I've done one of the nasties....deleted my Facebook account.....yes i've debated so many times....i've wasted so much time on it already and well its just a space for people to lurk and i had way too many people on it. so instead i can blog and do my own thing. I kinda feel empowered i can't wait to say....no I'm not on Facebook!!! Yes feeling liberated. so its up to email or phone (and yes still no cell for this crazy chick) Oh boy my song list sucks...i will need to work on this tomorrow! anyways this might not make any sense because I'm trying to multi task and I'm heading to bed the last time as a 28yr old XO Brittaney

School

OEYC put on a orientation to school and well my buddy isn't the greatest to change so we signed him up. Unfortunetly i had to work the first day so my parents took him...no tears he did great. And today same thing....So proud of you...but a tiny bit of my heart is sad...so grown up XOX

St.Anicet trip

My grandparents wishes were to have their ashes spread at their beloved home in Quebec. It is a small cute log home that hasn't changed a bit. A bachelor, Danny, currently lives their and has made some minor changes but only to enhance the charm of this home. My aunt Bev had written to him several months ago not knowing who lived there. He called her and they talk for quite some time and he agreed to let us come (little did he know it would be 18 people) When we arrived boy it was hot but just as i remember it. The only thing that was different was i thought everything was much bigger but perhaps thats because i was so little. To say it was a great day would be an understatement. When then came back and had dinner in Almonte and drinks a mom and dads. But now that Nana and Grampa have passed and been brought back to their home, the challenge for all of us will be to continue to get together. Here are some pics from the trip

What a weekend...

Jacob starts his kindergarten orientation tomorrow so we have been bugging him to wipe his own bum....of course it's always no you can do it....well Saturday night he did it. Saturday night was a big night for us.....Cameron really started walking on his own....yup he can do it all by himself ( he's only 16 months old!) Today I made a whack load of pesto.....i only started at 8:30 tonight so I recruited Derek to pick the leaves will watching the Olympics....yes I know he looks like he's doing something else! Then on to pickles.....mmmm why am I doing this so late you ask.....craziness....no my mom had so much produce that had to be done or it would spoil! That's it

Days of my lives

I love camping and wish we could do it every weekend. I love the fact that you can just relax and have no worries in the world. Some people like to solve world problems while i feel for me its a time to leave them at home. Its a mini vacation to rejuvenate the soul and see my kiddies enjoying themselves. After 4 days at logos land i feel relaxed and ready to work (for 2 half days!!!!) Then a long weekend. Yahhh One thing I've come to realize once I've had kids is that now your life revolves around them, you don't get weekends off its you all the time (except when the grandparents want them!) But you know what i wouldn't change this no matter what. These kids make me happy. So for those of you that are reading this and don't have kids...just remember its a 24/7 full time job that has its ups and downs but is so fulfilling and fun when you put 100% into it. Don't take parenting lightly...i'm just saying.

Heres some pics of the mini holiday
