6 Weird things about me...

I've been given the task to find 6 weird things about me... okay I'll try.

1. I have a thing I do with my thumbs that makes me relax...my comfort thing I guess. When I am chilling out in front of the TV at nights and especially when I am trying to go to sleep I tuck my thumbs in between my middle and pointing fingers. James laughs at me all the time but it works for me. If I am having a hard time getting to sleep I usually realise that my thumbs aren't tucked in, I tuck them in and off to sleepy-bye I go.

2. I LOVE PAPER WORK and STRESS!!!! It drives some people crazy but I thrive on it. I guess that is why I love my job.

3. I have a strange baby toe. I doesn't touch the floor, it is bent over the top of the next toe. It kinda looks like I have my toes crossed.

4. My big toe (on the same foot) doesn't touch the ground either. Since my last surgery on it I can slip about 20 pieces of paper under it without touching.

5. I too, like my sister Angella, enjoy my food separated. I am not as bad as she is (I can handle it touching). But I do eat my food one portion at a time. ie. all my meat first, then all veg, then all potatos, but never mix them together.

6. When me and James are holding hands I CAN NOT STAND it when my hand is on top. Mine has to be under his. Don't ask me why but it just bugs the snot out of me. He finds it funny and always tries to make my hand on top but it doesn't happen.

They aren't totally WEIRD but those are some of my quirks.

Old friends

So reading over my comments the other day there was one from an old girlfriend of mine from back home. I totally thought that was cool. I think this whole blogging thing is AWESOME!!! People every where getting to know what is goin on in your life. Its seems that once you move away and your life carries on it is SOOOOO hard to keep in touch, it is nice to hear from them again.

If there are more of my old friends that are reading this thing, please comment or email me. I would love to hear from you. As you can tell by reading this that my life has changed DRAMATICALLY. But it has changed for the better. No more partying all the time (only occasionally), and I have the most amazing husband, the cutest kids and a a cute puppy(post on that coming). What more could I ask for. Oh, and I actually do LOVE my job. The new house is being built all I need is the white picket fence.

Anyways before I start ramblling, I miss you all and please keep in touch.

Just some more pictures...




Cuteness

Just some more pictures of the kids to show off their cuteness...



House progress

I said that I would post some shots...here is what we got a couple of weeks ago when we went for our foundation inspection. Ours is only cement, the other house is Holli and Sean's. I;m jealous, they got a Creekside. That was the one we REALLY wanted but our budget told us otherwise. LOL!!! I can't wait until ours gets as far as theirs, it is going to start getting really exciting now that it'll be more than dirt and cement.

Just a short one for now...

Well, me in all my infinate wisdom forgot my pictures at home. I am at work (early as usual) and thought that I would update this puppy...without pictures I guess.

Well, we recently found out who are neighbours are going to be Holli and Sean Ward. The funny thing is the way we found this out. I guess, from what I understand, they were doing a search for Sunriver Estates on the internet and hit my blog. After looking at my blog they saw a picture of my sister and recognized her !!! Holli and Angella used to hang out back in Prince Rupert way back when. They bought the lot right beside ours and they have a six year old boy too!!! It is nice that we already know who the neighbours are. Its nice that they are a younger couple like us too.

We went out there last Thursday for our foundation inspection and as far as I can tell things look good...but what do I know. When I get home I will post some pictures.

Sean and Holli...if you are reading this I will post some pics I took of your place too, its coming along nicely. I do have to say that I'm jealous...we wanted a Creekside but our budget said otherwise. LOL!!!

Our New House

As we go along in the whole house building process I thought I would share it with you...

Once we bought the property it looked like this...



Then this... not much more difference then the first but there is more dirt from the neighbors yard.




About 3 weeks ago James went to see how far, if at all, they had gotten on the house. This is what he saw...

Then we went this last Saturday and look what we saw...



Cool huh ?!! I can't wait. I am sooo excited. It is going to be soooo awesome to finally have our OWN BRAND NEW HOUSE!!!!!!!

I'll keep you posted on the construction.
