Wow, A month since my last post?

I think this might just be a record for me. This is the longest I’ve gone without blogging. I apologize.

The home stretch…..

So here I am sitting in a hotel room in Winnipeg, only 1 more sleep away from being back home! It was been a very long but fantastic 9 weeks. I have loved all the time I was able to spend with family and friends. We were able to do a lot of interesting things while we were down.  I am sad to say good-bye to them, but I am also very happy to be going home. There’s nothing like being back in your own home, cooking in your own kitchen and most importantly, sleeping in your own bed! (more…)

Hospital, cops, horses, sports and more

That was how our Easter weekend was spent!!

This past week we spent 5 days in Ottawa. For the most part it was a really good time.

A dog to be proud of….sometimes.

We have had some interesting times with the dog since we’ve been in Montreal. About a week ago we decided to take Cisco to a dog park.

Carly or Kenny?

I am visiting friends this week and this is what they have so creatively come up with…….

Huh….where am I now?

Well it’s been almost 2 weeks since I left Chester. I am already tired of being in a plane or airport. Friday I actually had to think about where I was when I landed. I still have 5 more flights before we are back home. I have actually thought about adding up the amount of kms I’ve traveled once I’m back at home. I’m scared to see what that grand total will be.

Seriously?!??!

These are days that I am very glad we will only be doing this amount of traveling a couple times a year! What a few couple of days they have been!

My flight from Chester to Winnipeg was uneventful. We were on time and no problems throughout the flight. The sky was beautiful and the sunset even more so.
