A Beautiful Day...
It has been a long time since we've posted,so I thought I should put something up in case any one was wondering if we still existed.
Since our last post we have made some renovations to our new place. Changing all the knobs on the kitchen cupboards, putting in some new light fixtures, and quite a bit of painting.
My parents came to visit for the Easter long weekend, which seemed to go by much too quickly, but we managed to get some house things done with their help as well as do some sight-seeing too. Alas, the moose were elusive that weekend, and we only saw two from very far away!!! Maybe next time, Mum.
This weekend I painted the kitchen and started on some lawn work, by getting some grass seed and a hose. I've done a section and we'll see how quick it grows in. Today was an absolutely gorgeous day. I don't know the temp, but I know I was wearing a tshirt and capris and even though I was eating a popsicle in the backyard, I was still very warm. I also had to go and find a hat because I could feel my head starting to burn!
Chris got his bike out today because he is planning to ride it to and from work now that the weather has turned so much nicer! He just needs to go and get some air for his tires and he is good to go!
We had a picnic in the park today at lunch time, which Scout really enjoyed. In fact she has been outside nonstop today since about 10 this morning. Tonight we're having another yummy barbeque! If only it was Friday night and we still had two more days to our weekend!
HOpe everyone else had a nice weekend too!! I know there was good weather in Winnipeg.

And....we're in
It is now Saturday and as of about 630 last night we have been officially moved out of the townhouse and into our new house. It has been an ongoing process all week, with working all day, moving all evening, and then back to work again the next morning. Not fun, but we're definitely glad to be over and done with. The two extra bedrooms are the only ones with boxes that need to be organized. Everything else seems to be organized now. Scout loves her backyard and as more and more of the snow melts and more mud appears she seems to love it even more. She hates having her feet wiped off with the towel, but she will have lots of practice with it in the next few weeks.
We bought a barbeque last night that we are going to test out tonight with chicken kebabs, baked potatoes and coleslaw! Yummy!!! Chris thinks he has successfully put it together so, I guess we will find out when he lights it tonight!
Barbeque season is here!!
Chris signed up to be put on a baseball team this morning, so hopefully that will start up soon as well.
That is about it for the news this week. We're moved in and enjoying the quiet of a house without attached neighbours and a busy parking lot out front!
