Jodi's Bridal Shower September 27,2008

Today we celebrated the upcoming nuptials of our dear friend Jodi. She is the last of our friends to be wed. The bridal shower was hosted by her best friend Jill, there were many friends, neighbours and co workers that came to celebrate and honor Jodi. Wonderful assortment of gifts were given, a wide selection of tasty treats and appy's were eaten and best of all Jodi modeled the traditional bra and panty set made after the bows were removed from the gifts!

A fabulous time was had and we wish Jodi & Jim all the best!

Just wanted to share this... September 2008

we have bigger houses
and smaller families;
more convenience, but less time.

we have degrees, but less sense;
more knowledge, but less judgement;
more experts, but more problems;
more medicine, but less healthiness.

we have been all the way to
the moon and back, but have trouble
crossing the street to
meet the new neighbour.

we built more computers to hold more information
to produce more copies than ever,
but have less communication.

we have become long on quantity,
but short on quality.

These are times of fast foods,
and slow digestion;
tall man and short character;
steep profits, and shallow relationships.

It is a time when there is much in the window,
and nothing in the room.

Sam at the Park September 7,2008





Sunday Sam & I strolled to the park and after to Safeway for a few goodies. It was a lovely afternoon and Sam had a good time going down all the slides and running back up again. It is funny to see him amongst other children he age he looks like a giant toddler sometimes.

Another nice routine that we have recently established is our neighbour coming by with their pup Duke. The two of them just run circles around us. It is nice to see even when Bronny is 5 and this guy is just a few month old that they can have such a nice time. Bronwynne really does have the patience we see it in practice with Sam all the time but it really reinforces it when I see her out there with Duke pulling and yanking on her ears and her neck! They are just a hoot!
