Wish I could pick some cranberries!

The only thing you can pick around here is dog poop and pop can tabs! I think I'll have to plan a trip to the Horse next pickin season. In the meantime, save me a bottle of that cranberry liqueur! Well, I am going apple picking with the girls again this weekend. So I can make some strudel. Yumm!

I have the names of Angela's new twin girls: Cassie Lee and Cayley May. They're fraternal (not identical).

When do we find out your new boy's name Nicole???

Luv ya,
Pean

Midnight and all is calm

Just got back from driving Nick to Craigen's. Andrew and Nick are off on their big hunting adventure bright and early tomorrow morning. Gail, the sweetheart, is getting up at 6:00am to make them waffles then Mike and his sister Mo are driving them to Johnson's Crossing where the boys will put their boat in on the Teslin and head down to Carmacks. Nick is flying high as you can well imagine. Dad is fast asleep already as he had a big day with Marlene installing our bathroom vanities. They do look good. The cupboards in the laundry room and upstairs bathroom are going to provide good storage for linens and what not. I was in town all day doing laundry and taking Copper to the vet. An overheard conversation in the laundromat today "Hey man, what's up, I'm in a bind, I just got out of jail and I need a ride." One can meet such interesting folk in a laundromat, don't you think? Bears, bears, everywhere. Lloyd ran into a black bear this morning on the power line trail and Nick saw one by the dump road on his way from Craigen's. There are fresh tracks in the snow and one has to be careful not to step in bear poop. But snow and bears will not keep this gal and her friend Gail from seeking out the ultimate cranberry patch. I've got my cranberry liqueur bottled ready to go for Christmas and I made up another big batch of cranberry sauce. I still need to make my cranberry marmalade...yummy. Gail and I sampled the liqueur last night and it passed the test with flying colours. Gail is coming over tomorrow for another cranberry picking date. Must sign off and get some shut eye. Talk to you all soon. Love, love, love, as Jaime would say. Mom

2 girls!

Yep, Ange delivered by c-section 2 baby girls, only about 4 pounds each! In all the mayhem, nobody found out if they're identical or not!

I gather everybody is fine, but one is on oxygen and they're in little incubators. Ange is still out of it, but ok.

Can't wait to see pictures!

babies poppin out everywhere... well, not here though

but he's head down and in position, ready for the big day!!
I can't believe it about Ange. God help them (the parents I mean) not just twins, but premees!!! yikes! 30 weeks is tiny! poor little spider monkeys!
Michelle - bring your scissors! Noé needs a "fixit" hair cut and I need a pre-post partum depression trim. Otherwise you will be doing a post partum head shave in December.

Ange is having her babies... right now!

This is hot of the presses news... Just heard from Booboo that Angela's water broke and the babies are coming! She's only just past 30 weeks so it's early but manageable. I think that she's having a c-section as we speak.
Keep your fingers crossed for her and the little buggers, and I'll keep you posted about anything new.

Nick arrives

Hi Kids

Nick flew in today at lunch time! He & Andrew entertained us with hunting preparation stories while Jude served-up a wonderful moose steak supper for the four of us. Andrew said it was most important to get Nick properly primed for his "Moose expedition, to the Yukon, 2010 edition" so a big feed of moosemeat right off the bat was in order. Needless to mention it was served with the appropriate ale, fresh from Yukon Brewery (Nick's first stop of course, after the airport)

Love to all... Ole Dad

Adult acne. Lovin' my life.

The room looks awesome Nicole!!!! J-L is the man!

K- I think I need zinc. I have all those problems. Especially the breakouts. The other day one of Stacy's kids asked me, "What's on your face?" I reply, "Oh that ugly thing sweetheart, that's a pimple!" ...has anyone seen that hilarious skin flap commercial?... something similar to that situation. (Thanks you little shithead...thanks a lot.)

So who all needs haircuts this visit?? Or do you want to wait until December?
