Halloweenies!

A scary couple of monsters hanging out at the Wong household this spooky hallow's eve! Batman and sidekick are all set for the big candy haul this evening. Adam has been looking forward to tonight for the past several days. Last night the big event was the pumpkin carving. Any attempt at curbing sugar intake today has failed miserably. Even Jersey got in on the Halloween action (not necessarily happily)! All I can say is that I really pity the kindergarten teachers tomorrow! I trust that everyone has a safe and happy trick-or-treating time tonight (and don't forget to share the treats with Mum and Dad).

Busy Weekend!!!

Well, apart from it being our 6th wedding anniversary and Claire's 5 month-old date, we had the little Ms. Christened at Tweedsmuir Presbyterian Church in Orangeville. Claire was extremely well behaved and the entire family came to supprt Claire. It was a very nice day (apart form being FREEZING and the snow...).
Not a very exciting anniversary, but Allan surprised me with 24 long stem roses and tickets to the theatre production of "Wicked" playing at the Pantages theatre. The show for us is on Dec. 28th. A very nice surprise indeed! I will now spend the next 2 days completing and revising my case study for presentation this Friday (UGH). Lucky me!

NOt Very Exciting

Hello
everyone! NOt too much to report this past 2 weeks or so. It's been pretty busy with Adam at school and me at school. One forgets how much work is involved in "homework"! Batman is warming up to his little sidekick and she is experiencing all sorts of new things, like the jolly jumper and exersaucer. The weather is getting colder and we are having to entertain indoors most of the time these days. Everyone has colds too, ah winter...the lovely time of year! This weekend coming promises to be busy though, Claire's christening on Sunday, and my 6th wedding anniversary. YIKES! The following weekend is our big "Rally-O" trial in Georgetown...wish us luck!

First Snow for winter 2006....UGH

Yes, it's true. Thursday Oct 12 at about 4pm we had our first flakes of the "winter '06". Here is Jersey on the deck with a few nasty flakes floating around. We had flurries on and off through the night, causing the QEW by Hamilton/Niagara to be closed for some time. YIKES! This is the beginning I guess!

A Nice Thanksgiving!

A really nice Thanksgiving this year...Grandma and Grandpa Wong met Claire for the first time! Everyone had a terrific weekend, and the weather was absolutely perfect. Couldn't have asked for more.
Things will knuckle down now as I begin my upgrading to obtain my "Anesthesia Assistant" credential through the Michener Institute in Toronto. The obedience trial season has also begun, and Jersey and I will be partaking in a couple of trials, as well as attempting "Rally-O" for the first time. Keeping your fingers crossed that I will titale this year!!!I think Indian Summer has passed and it will be a long winter ahead.
UNtil next time....
