Nutcracker & trucks

Last night I went to see the Nutcracker Ballet with my Aunt. It was a great show with some fabulous dancers (including some very cute little girl ballerinas who were sometimes not quite perfectly in sync which made them even cuter)! One thing we did agree on though --we should have reread the story (or at least gotten a program) before seeing the ballet! It was a really great show, and I had lots of flashbacks from when I went with Grams.
Tomorrow we are going truck shopping in Richmond (depending on the weather) for Trev. With a little side trip to IKEA in Ottawa (YAY!).
Well, I think that's it for now!
Later!

Computers....

So I didn't win the Lotto 649 (big surprise I know!). So I've been trying to add a Flickr Album to my blog to show my scrapbooking pages, and it is working, but just not the way I wanted (you can't scroll through them, or fit them in the little square). I think for now I will just leave it, but I will have to try again some other time. Anyone have any ideas to make this work just right????

Prize winner!

I was checking the blogs I like to read this morning, and I won a prize from this one http://www.janethopkins.typepad.com/ ! Can't wait to see what it is - Thanks so much Janet!!!!!

Busy week this week. Tomorrow night is the first night of the cake decorating class I'm taking with my friend Melissa, then Tuesday night is volleyball, Thursday night is the Nutcracker Ballet.....somehow I'm sure I'll fit it all in!! Maybe even some Christmas shopping and Christmas baking....who knows??

Off to check my Lotto 649 ticket, who knows, maybe today is my REALLY lucky day!

Later!

The Weekend

The Bulls lost Friday night, but they went out with a fight! After scoring their last goal with 1 second left on the clock in the third period, they lost in sudden death. Too bad, but it was definitely a good game! And Gilmour definitely packed the stands (sold out crowd even), which is a first in several years for Kingston.
Last night we went to the Santa Claus Parade with friends of our and their daughter. While night time parades are nice because you see the lights better, it was extremely cold! Even bundled up and with blankets, it was a bit chilly!
Quiet day today I think. I'm done tidying up for the day, and need to get showered and dressed to face the day (and the ten loads of laundry, grocery shopping, etc.).
Later!

Hockey

Tonight, we are going to the hockey game. While I'm not much of a hockey fan, there is nothing like watching hockey live in Canada! Tonight's game is (my) Belleville Bulls vs. (Trevor's) Kingston Frontenacs. Seeing as the last two games I've seen in Kingston the Bulls have won (and they were both very one sided games I'd like to add), there is a pretty good chance my Bulls will win yet again (hopefully anyhow). I will be the one in the club section cheering for Belleville! Should be an interesting game as this will be Doug Gilmour's first home game as coach!
Hopefully tomorrow I will be able to fit in some scrapbooking. There is a funeral and a wake for my Great Aunt Shirley, so we shall have to wait and see.
Later!
