Throwing A Wrench In My Day!

Literally. I woke up Saturday AM and of course had plans for the day. Until I found this on my van. A flat tire. So -got the spare tire on and headed for the tire shop. There was a four hour wait today to get my car looked at! How come we are never prepared for this? Is there ever a good time for a flat tire??? j.

Running for Terry

Today was the Terry Fox Run at Mr. Photography's school. And this was the shot I got --as he ran past me. There was no stopping for a photo. Next year Mr. Photography and his dad are going to participate in the Terry Fox Run. Dad will run and Mr. Photography will bike.

Excited I Am!!!

For a couple months I have been trying to download this background and it has not been working. However it is 4:30am as I work on this blog and finally, it works. I am so happy!!
Now, must take some photos to add the full effect. Actually come to think of it, I will be taking some photos today, already on the agenda. That is, if I don't sleep through the AM b/c I've been up all night. (Dawson is snoring and it is keeping me and him awake.) Oh well. It maybe early but I am happy today.

Somethings Happening.......

Ok,
I just wrote a whole blog entry on how everytime I jump onto someone's blog they get a visitor from Medicine Hat. Then went to post it and it disappeared. I wonder if some hacker (this is the part where my post suddenly disappeared....) is somehow linked to my computer?????? I will investigate this and may have to close this blog and start a new one... ummm.

Weird things are happening!!!!!

Early Morning Breakfast

This morning we decided to par take in the Strathcona Fire Hall's free community pancake breakfast. Mr. Photography had a great time there. It was fun and there was good food too.


Dawson putting on the firefighter backpack in the truck.

UMMMM.....The pancakes and sausage were so good!

Here we are beside Sparky's the fire dog's truck. The dalmation- remember him? He hasn't aged a bit!!!

August Trip

Here is our niece from PG, she is with her 1st place winning scarecrow- Hannah Montana. She is 5 years old. It was a very cute scarecrow.

This is Mr. Photography's entry into the fair, a chuck wagon and bobble head horse. He called it Man Tracker. He won 1st in his category too.

Here is our nephew and Mr. Photography at the fair/bumper cars. They had a blast. Until his auntie took him on tilt a whirl and he got sick. He claims he never wants to go on another ride again!

Mr. Photography and his grandparents fishing one early morning. He caught nothing and froze his little buns off. The temp was 5C. I guess the fish thought it was too cold to come to the surface and bite the worms too.

Nana made this fishing hat. Mr. Photography claims it is bad luck. He never caught anything with it on. I think he was just embarrassed to wear it! Mr. Photography went fishing
on 3 different days. He didn't have any luck - any of those days. Poor kid. All in all he had a good vacation and is happy to be home.

My Boy Beckham

Finally he likes a little style. He got a haircut today and a style too! He loves it. Too bad the product she used cost $21.00 to keep his hair spiked. And no - I didn't buy it. I am on a mission to find a cheaper product that will spike his hair. But I must admit he does look good.
