Aero

Well I've been taking Aero to obedience class. There have only been two classes so far. The only problem I have is that Aero likes to play with the other dogs. The other dogs don't want to play with him. He gets distracted and pulls on his leash. Anything can distract him, from fluff flying by, to people, to grass, to smells. It's very irritating lol.

He's also taking handling classes. He's going to be a show dog and earn his confirmation. I've never been in a show ring before. I like most people have watched the westminister abbey dog show on tv. But for some reason I don't think that counts. I think it's a good thing that I'm not the one handling him in the ring. Last night I could barely get him to pay attention. So now we just need to pratice and he'll get better.

Aero has his picture up on two websites, yea Aero!. If you care to take a look, you can get to the sites from my sidebar on the right side. At Azureblue His mom is Emily, look under "our girls" and you'll see him. At Eagertriever his dad is Riley look under "our boys" "Riley" Riley's pups pictures". Aero is the one with the Alberta mountains behind him.

Aero is a lovely pup and well behaved for a 5 month old LOL. Just don't distract him LOL! I couldn't ask for a better pup.

Faith

Well tomorrow afternoon Faith has her grandparents day at school. All the grade 2's have written letters to their grandparents. Since Faith rarely sees any of her grandparents I don't think it's going to be a very long letter. Although we did come up with somethings for her to talk about.

There is going to be an assembly and all the grandparents are going to be there. I really hope Faith's grandfather can make it. He said he might be able too. She's looking forward to it and I'd hate to see her disappointed.

Everyone is suppose to bring some historic thing to show. Their going to have a "museum". I found somethings but it's from my side of the family. We didn't really have anything from Dustin's side and he wouldn't ask for anything. So oh well.

I'm looking forward to it and seeing how everyone does talking in front of everyone else. They have to stand up in front of everyone and read their letter out. The teacher was smart though and got her to write it in both french and english.

Here's hoping things go well.

On a side note, it went really well! Faith's grandpa and baba were there. They went up on stage with her and she read her letter. I totally starting crying. It was beautiful.

But it was WAY to long. It didn't realize it was a whole afternoon long. Not only did (almost) every kid read at least two letters, some grandparents got up and talked to the kids. The kids sang and did some old fashioned dancing. It was very nicely done. Faith had a good time, that's all that really matters.

RAIN< RAIN< RAIN< RAIN

I'm thinking you get the picture. RAIN, RAIN and more RAIN. This week is basically a right off. You know what really makes me angry? We only have so many nice days in the year. Why can't it rain at night and be nice enough to go out and play outside? I'm not saying it has to be California weather or anything, just nice enough to be able to play outside. Last week the cold wind was blowing, we had a frost warning. I don't think it too much to ask.

But Dustin has finally finished everything to do with the fence. I don't think there is anymore he could do with it. Now that he's moved the fence up to make room for his truck to park, he has to clean out the garden that was there. I bet this is going to take even longer.

I guess I should go pick up the kids from school now, but first I have to wake up the munckin.

bye for now

Life

So I guess it's been a few weeks since I last wrote. My birthday was nice. Dustin and I went out to dinner and a movie. We saw the new terminator movie. It was good, but felt like a filler movie. It's filling the space between the last movie and the next one. It had very good graphics and a good cast. I know there will be another one and am looking forward to more of a story and more on John Connor.

Faith's 8th birthday is coming up.... when did she get to be so big. I've been letting her ride her bike down the back lane. She has a friend at the end of the lane and he likes to ride his bike with her. It's very cute. She also has to check and double check to make sure she can go in his house. Even if I said it's o.k. At least I have one kid who listens.

Aero the dog is loving his new yard. He can run and run without being on the leash. I like it but still don't leave him there by himself.

We're all done pre-school for the year. The twins were very glad/sad to see it over. Their going to love being in school full time next year and going on the bus with Faith every day. Faith also has her grandparents appreciation day coming up. Her grandpa Wilson might actually show up. That will be nice cause normally it's just me and the kids there for those types of events. Which is really to bad cause I know my mom would LOVE to come.

Nathan is alittle bugger and got out of the house tonight. Thank god he ran down the street away from the park. The park you have to cross a busy street first. He opened the door, climbed under the fence. My back lane neighbour found him and brought him home. I had just gotten Faith. I'm so thankful nothing happened. Faith was freaking out and ran down the street when she saw him. He can do all the other "bad" things he wants.... I really hope I never have to go through that again.

May is over and June is just beginning. Soon school will be out and we'll have the carefree days of summer.
