Pouring Concrete :)

(Just noticed Wednesdays post didn't publish properly... Here it is!!)

We LOVE having Opa, Uncle Steve and Uncle Gord working around here :) As soon as the kids see a concrete truck pull in they are running for their boots!!



Making sure Owen doesn't end up in the wet concrete! 
Sibling Love!!! 

Also have to love the ability to quickly blog from my phone pictures... Sure has me posting more often!! 
Xo - enjoying this beautiful day!! 

My Mom's Birthday!!!

You do so much for us... Teach us great things... Love and dote on the grand kids like its your job :).... Pack lunches... Babysit grands... Keep your house in order like one of the best... Treat many... Run errands for hubby and kids...  A wonderful wife and fabulous mother :)

You are so relieved and happy to have the surgery behind you and things seem to be going so well... You already feel a difference compared to how the healing went last time.... So happy!!

(My laptop got a bad virus on it that locked it down as of last night so I have no pictures to share... Unless I can find one on my phone:) 
The post surgery picture is all that's on there of you because I just deleted all my old pictures but I have some cute ones from us blowing leaves for you yesterday... We enjoyed our day with you immensely!!

At long last...

I've heard from SO many people
who have been anxiously waiting for a glimpse
at the album that was created for Dad and Mom...
 
without further delay...
the first 39 pages!!
 







































 I'll try not wait too long to post more :)


Surgery Success :)

So thankful Mom's surgery is behind us...
Now we face recovery time - which she has been told no lifting more than a knife and fork for 3 months!!! Seems crazy but we will need to hold her to this :) (sorry mom, we may be on your case about following doctors orders!)

Her surgery was to repair the surgery that wasn't done so well on her broken arm (try avoid her first surgeon if possible... Sounds like "Locked"!! Lol - letter to head of surgeons in process...)
Mom ended up needing a bone graft because the bone didn't heal properly. A wrong plate was put in initially which allowed the bone to bend...
Now things seem to be much better...
Mom looked fabulous last night and here is the truth - she rocks it on pain killers!!!
Lets say we shared a few good laughs last night!!

Wish you a speedy recovery mom.... We'll be around to give you company!!
