Happy Birthday Kaitlyn!

It's Kaitlyn's fifth birthday today, wow has time gone by fast. Not only is it her birthday but she also had her very first day of school today! She has had a very exciting day!!

Kaitlyn had a birthday party at Grandma and Grandpa Dyck's on friday; it was loads of fun and VERY LOUD.

The kids played Bingo with real prizes, thanks to the Aunties.



We ate cake!
















Made really loud (somewhat annoying) noises!!!
















Ate ice cream sandwiches!!








Played with Balloons!!

Kaitlyn brought cupcakes to school today to share with her class. She came home so excited that she got to do everything first in honour of her birthday. The only thing she was disappointed about was that she never got to wear the necklace that each student has to wear when they leave the classroom to go to the bathroom!

Now the only thing left is a birthday supper that she picked...noodles with schmaunt fat! How much easier does it get??

Katie's New Look...

A few weeks ago when Kaitlyn was asked what she wanted for her birthday, her reply was, get her ears pierced. So today we took her to Shoppers Drugmart to get her birthday present early. Here's her new look:

Planting Potatoes

Justin and Kaitlyn had a blast planting potatoes. It was a cool windy day, but by the time we were ready to call it quits, Kate was very wet and loving it. When Chris and I were not quick enough and there were no holes to water or plant a potatoe in, they would make a hole (just anywhere), put water in it and then a potatoe, and dirt to cover. We were lucky they only put a thin layer of dirt onto the few strays.



At the end of the day stage one of our planting experience is complete!! The existing piece of garden is planted, and hopefully next week we will break new ground for the rest of our garden.

I (Chris) have been working at General Metal Fabrication since the beginning of February. I was hired to be a customer service rep but I've been welding in the shop until the new office opens. Though my time in the shop has been good, I'm looking forward to my first day in the office on Tuesday.
