April 5, 2016

Hello to all. Once again it's time to sit down and get this done. A few exciting things have happened this month. I look back on the last month and wonder how everything got done and think surely next month will be slower. That for some reason doesn't seem to happen. We started off the month of March with one of Kelly's uncles funeral up in Fort Vermillion. I didn't go but Kelly went with Marshal. The rest of that week wasn't to eventful. We where in town one day and to Lorne's one night for supper. We also went back to Fort St John for charcoal and the store was open this time. Galen's came over Sunday night after church on the 6th. The next day I took lunch to Glenda's because she was deep cleaning her house and her sister was coming to help. We had a another town day. It may seem like we go to town a lot but keep in mind I have 3 big milk drinkers in my house and we go through about 4 gallon a week and my two fridges only hold so much. Albert and Anita where over one evening to practice a couple of songs. Kelly got asked to have a couple of songs at Heartvalley's Easter program. The 11th Nigel, Kelly,  and I where headed back to Edmonton ( Heidi stayed with folks in law) as Kelly had failed a test and needed to rewrite it. Came home Saturday night. I got to spend with day with my friend Becky while Kelly was writing the test so that was fun. We walked West  Ed Mall. Nigel deicide to barf a couple of times so not sure what his deal was. Maybe eye teeth? The 13th we went to Heartvalley for church in the evening. For supper before church we went to Brain Burge's. The next 3 days I spend at the computer trying to finish the book work so we coulf file taxes. The 16th Heidi had an appointment with her Dr to see about speech therapy.  The dr said it wasn't a big concern yet but she would see what a therapist thought. The 17th Nigel got his first haircut. He did awesome. He sat really nice on Kelly's lap till the lady was done. In the evening we went to a Fireman's Graduation where Kelly got a 5 year award. The 19th and 20th Kelly had  a training weekend in town.The one day I sewed 4 dresses. I finished up books the first part of the next week. I also did a little painted. Just one wall that didn't really have much on it. I painted the top half a dark grey and the bottom half I did chalk board paint. I put 3 white line across the top and outline the chalk board part with with trim. It looks really nice. Also that week my new gas range got put in. I had an electric oven and stove top and they weren't working right. The 25th was Dad's 60th birthday party and we had a surprise of our lives. Isaac and Heather surprised everyone in the family and can for the the party and they are staying a month. Sunday we had Easter dinner at folks place. The 29th Carl's where for the evening to plan programs for the next few months. Isaac's where here for supper with folks on the 30th. The 31st we where back in town. Well that's all on that. Nigel has finally gotten all his eye teeth in so now he can be happy again. Nothing new on Heidi. Till next time.....
