April 7 2014 Snow

We had a death in the family after 18yrs of cleaning floors and carpets...our Kenmore 6920 was laid to rest.....I'm going to miss you....=)  Now to look for a new vacuum....I made a poll on FB and got a lot of input into the one I should get.  I will keep you posted on the one I do end up getting....=)

New baby born to my DH side of the family....=) he's so cute  Congrats to you both.

So it seems like we have been busy, enjoying our time here.  Kids only have 7 weeks of school let, I can't believe it.

My CAN girlfriends and I were going to do the Switch back Hill, but with the snow, are putting off for another day.  Maybe Thursday afternoon if Mother Nature cooperates.

This week DS has his hockey wind up party at school it's a pot luck, so that will be fun for him.

I'm getting excited about next week and the start of my photography class...it's one evening a week for a month so I'm hoping to learn a lot and hopefully tweak my skills.  I just hope I can remember all the info....=)
