Peter Pan

When we went to Stockholm for Christmas I was talking to Grandma Huber about theater. I was telling her how I want to take them to Peter Pan and she said she would buy the tickets if we went. We wanted to take her up on that offer so we went today.
Me, Fabian, the girls, and Grandma Mellor went. I dragged Grandma Mellor cause she loves theater and hasn't been in a very long time. Everyone enjoyed it a lot. Eastynn could have dealt with it being about 20 minutes shorter but other than that it was great. After the play you could have your picture taken with a cast member and my dad was good friends with "Captain Hook" but the girls were terrified of him, I guess that means he did his job.
After we went for supper it was a great day with the family can't wait for more kid friendly musical theater.
That's all for now

Olympics

Not this Saturday but the previous Saturday. Fabian took the girls to Olympic ceremonies at the tepee. The girls got some fun stuff and had a good time with there dad.
Today me, mom, and the girls went to the radio station. There was the torch still there and people were able to take pictures with the torch. I think this is so cool and special to be able to do this.
I remember when I was a little girl lining the street and watching the torch go by this year I got to make my girls a part of this very cool.
That's all for now.

Crazy Hair Day/Special Helper and Movie Night

On Friday was crazy hair day I did my best on Taylor's hair added some colored hair pieces when I went to pick her up and she definitely had the craziest hair in her class. It was also a special day Taylor got to be the special helper which means she had her show and tell, she took her jewelery box she got for Christmas. She loves that day when she gets to be special helper and the last time she was I got to go this time unfortunately Eastynn had a cold and needed more attention than usual and my mom's shoulder is just to sore to be able to give her the attention she needed. That's okay next time I will go.
That night was a movie night at the school we went and watched Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs. The girls had a blast although Taylor barely sat but she never gets to just hang out with her friends.
That's all for know

Taylor's Dentist Appointment

On Wednesday Taylor had a dentist appointment. She has been complaining of a sore mouth for quite awhile. At first we thought it was cause she didn't want to eat supper, but soon found out it wasn't. She was all geared up for the dentist appointment. Although her mouth hurt pretty bad I even had to pick her up early from school.
The entire family went I wanted Eastynn to see its not so scary so that she can soon have an appointment. She was very interested in what was going on the dentist sent the girls to go pick out a toy. The dentist told us that Taylor has many cavities and it is best to just put her under to get that done. So she will be undergoing dental surgery on March 11th. Other than that it has been very quite around here.
That's all for now

The 2 Day Drive Home

We left Sask on Jan 1. It was very hard on the girls and a little hard on Grandma too.
First off the van didn't start we should have taken that as a sign. We hit the road and no real problems till after Regina. After Regina there was some blowing snow which really wasn't to bad slowed us down a little bit though. Even when we hit Swift Current it wasn't so bad but the second we left city limits all hell broke loose. We decided to turn back. It was not worth us risking our lives to get home when we wanted. We stayed the night at a motel and hit the road in the morning. The roads were much better no real issues at all.
The last couple days we have been trying to tidy up and we did a really good job of catching up on the cleaning my goals were just getting the toy room clean and the bedding done and its done.
Now to start on all the good stuff. Back to school and work in the morning for Taylor and daddy. Mommy starts her workout routine and hopefully get a lot more cleaning done and a lot less time on the computer. Lets hope I can stick to this.
That's all for now.

Happy New Year

On New Years Eve we went to a wedding, Grandma Huber's best friend Lois' son got married.
Just Grandma and Taylor went to the ceremony, with Calvin, Brooklynn, and Luke.
We all went to the supper which was delicious.
Taylor made some friends, Eastynn made a enemy a little guy there who was also 3. He scared her a little and there was no turning back for her, she was also very tired which may have had something to do with it. Taylor's little friend Max was adorable, he was only 2 I really hope they can see each other again. They even got a few professional photos done together.
Although I didn't stay to long cause Eastynn passed out and I wasn't feeling to great it was nice while we were there. I did spend my night with Brooklynn, Eastynn and Luke, although Luke was sleeping poor little guy was just burnt out and teething. Which was really nice too, Brooklynn and I rarely get to just hang out.
Grandma, Papa, Calvin, Fabian, and Taylor stayed. Taylor apparently danced the night away I am really sad I missed that though.
That's all for now

More Sledding

Today we went out to Calvin and Brooklynn's place to go sledding. Calvin always pulls the girls behind the ski-doo. Taylor enjoys it a lot. Eastynn I think is torn I don't know if she likes it or not.
Luke rode on the quad with Fabian and I. The girls rode in the sled with Brooklynn.
After Luke was done Eastynn came on the quad with us. Then Taylor came on with us for a bit. Taylor also went for a ride with uncle Calvin on the ski-doo too. She loves that kind of stuff.
We had a good time and a good supper and good visit afterwards.
Tomorrow we are still undecided if its more sledding or more R&R or possibly a horse drawn sleigh ride.
That's all for now

Sledding

The first real day we were here we went sledding. Grandma was pulling the kids around the yard when we finally got dressed we took the girls to the hill. We didn't end up staying to long. Taylor loved it, Eastynn not so much. I think each girl went down 3 times we came home and had some hot chocolate. The rest of the day was just some R & R.
The next day was a whole lot of R & R the only real thing that took place was that Grandma Huber's friend Lois stopped by to visit. Taylor really likes Lois.
That's all for now

Fabian's Birthday/Boxing Day/ Huber Christmas

On Christmas we didn't get to bed till late late late, so we knew on the 26th we wouldn't leave until very late rather than 10ish like we normally do. We left at 2 pm.
We arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's at 9ish. Then we opened gifts and obviously played with them.
We visited with everyone and had a little bite to eat and headed to bed, it was a long day.
On the plus side the drive is getting much better when you tell Taylor how many movies it is till we get there she still doesn't understand time.
That's all for now

Chisholm Christmas

In the afternoon we headed over to Auntie Velvet's. This year was much different than other years. This year of course we had the addition of cute little Jackson. But on the other hand we were missing so many people. Dad of course and he will be missed every year forever and ever. Also missing was Heather, Damien, Kyle and his girl friend Annie. I think just for this year was Kirby, Cindy, Adam and Aaron. Colin, Chris, Alex, Lindsay, Tara, and Nolan. Although Chris, Colin and Nolan showed up just before we left.
The supper was great, my kids got spoiled as usual, and the Chinese gift exchange well that was crazy as usual. We played darts again I am glad cause my dad is gone that we still played the darts. Some catch phrase that was beyond fun. We have some pretty funny people in my family.
That's all for now.

Christmas Morning

Christmas morning Taylor of course was the first person to wake up around 6:30. She was so excited but considering Eastynn didn't go to sleep till after midnight we tried to keep Taylor in bed till 8:00. So we all got up they were so excited and we all enjoyed every second of the gift opening.
There was one sad moment when Grandma Mellor opened a present. I had bought her a present from Papa Mellor. I found a old card that he wrote to her and traced the writing, which really got her. The present I bought for her was an ornament said something along the lines of "Although I will miss you my dear I am spending Christmas in Heaven this year."
After Christmas presents the girls played, Jason went back to bed, Fabian showered and mom hung out with me while I made Christmas brunch which is what my dad made every year Christmas morning.
After breakfast we went on Skype to talk Aunty Glad missed the rest of the Mellor clan though.
Then we all got ready and headed out for the Chisholm Christmas.
That's all for now.

Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve we didn't do much.
I am really trying hard to keep dad's memory alive by doing stuff he use to do. So on Christmas Eve I made dads roastbeef, with yorkshire pudding, mash potatoes with gravy, also broccoli and cheese sauce. It turned out really well.
After supper Taylor went and put out the reindeer food.
Then Taylor, grandma and I went to church.
Taylor went to bed really quite well as usual and Eastynn didn't as usual. I went and laid with her and she fell asleep quite easily. The adults just relaxed after the kids went to bed.
That's all for now

A Random Funny

Tonight watching tv Taylor came up with a Random funny that I thought I would post cause I never want to forget it.
She looks at Fabian and says, "Dad, What's in your wallet?" (From the Capital One Credit Card commercial)
That;s all for now

Princess and the Frog

Last night Fabian had to go to work AGAIN. So I decided to take the girls to a show Grandma Chisholm gave Eastynn money for her birthday so we had a girls night out. It was nice minus the 3 bathroom breaks. Great movie though. I love girls nights out.
Now that I am caught up on 2 weeks of blogs enjoy.
That's all for now

Taylor's Christmas Concert

On Wednesday night and Thursday afternoon and night Taylor had her Christmas concert we only had tickets for the one night but I watched her in 2 of them. It was great so cute.
The pics are from Stephanie Williams she had much better seats than us.
That's all for now

Santa at Papa's friends house Don

Don phoned us a couple weeks ago. Santa was due to arrive at his house on Dec 16. So since it was the same night as Taylor's Christmas concert we only had a chance to run down and look at the lights quick and see Santa. The one pic looks like Eastynn interrogating Santa.
That's all for now.

Eastynn's Birthday/ Grandma and Grandpa Huber come visit

Tuesday was Eastynn's birthday very uneventful day, although the evening the girls throughly enjoyed there surprise of Grandma and Grandpa Huber coming to visit. It seems the entire time they were here Eastynn was opening another present. They brought the girls a huge doll house. It is about 4' high.
We all had Chinese food that night, and since Grandma and Grandpa Huber were here Grandma Mellor got to come to darts for the first time since papa passed away. I think it was awkward for her but I enjoyed having her there.
That's all for now

My Beautiful Babies

I will start off with Eastynn considering these are suppose to be her birthday pictures as well. She got ones with mom and dad and Taylor for some reason didn't. I think due to the fact the only way we could get her to smile is by getting her to run.





Secondly are just a couple pictures of Taylor. The one brought tears to my eyes she is so beautiful. She is growing up so fast.



Last but not least my girls together.
