Mixed emotions

Victoria day cupcakes

A cupcake order for a little girl

Before, during and after Isaac's baptism (yes it was very cold!)

There's been alot going on recently around here. Victoria Day weekend market was very good then having a day off on Monday has made this week pass really fast.

Last week we went to the Radian 6 acquisition party which was a really good evening held in the newly opened convention center in town.

Bess hasn't been well for some time now and she has steadily got worse until on Friday she couldn't even walk so with much sadness we had to have her put down. She will be missed as she was part of our family for nearly 14 years.

Our house purchase is still set to happen on Tuesday which is really exciting. It will be exactly 1 year since we sold our house in Whitby. Time certainly is flying by. Everything is signed so all we need to do is a walk round the property at 9am, if we agree it's left how we agreed in the contract the lawyers are informed, the money is transfered and we own a house! Our collection of furniture etc. to fill the house is growing as more yard sales are visited. On bank holiday Monday me, Jen and the girls went to a sale and bought drawers, a blanket, shelves and a chair for $20. Mum even did the American yard sales too!

The bugs are certainly here I have blackfly and mosquito bites all over which itch like mad. They seem to like my blood best of all.

Today we've just got back from our church weekend away at Green Hill Lake Camp. We had a really good time with great people in a beautiful setting. The highlight of the weekend was a baptismal service in the lake where Isaac was one of 10 people getting baptised. We were very proud of him and delighted that Rich & Jen and Mum & Dad drove out for the occasion too.

Next time I write the blog it should be from our new house!
