February, March and April Update!!






All right, here is the update for the past three months. I will just write a whole big thing and then I will attach the pictures. There is not much to report for February, we did not do much. In March was spring break and we had our nieces over for a sleep over. It all started with the Manitoba Winter Fair. Kim and Darcy left Rayleen here while they took the other three girls to the fair. We had a great time entertaining Rayleen as well as being entertained by her. In the evening the rest of the kids came over (just in time for bed). In the morning we got up and started the sleepover party. We went to the library and then to Coop where the girls were allowed to pick out any candy they wanted. When we returned to the house we set out to make a cake. When the cake had cooled we were able to put icing on the cake and use my cake decorating set to write the girls names on the cake and to make cool decorations. Then the girls were allowed to put the candy of their choice on to the cake. It was beautiful. We also watched two movies which the girls thought were great and then the girls got to sit in our "hot tub" again which was still soooooooo cool!! They stayed from Wednesday night till Friday morning. On Friday morning I drove them home and picked up my mom and then went to Winnipeg. I had an interview with the head guy from Wellington College. My interview went great and I am still waiting for a reply letter in the mail telling me if I was accepted or not. Mom and I spent the rest of the day shopping, it was a lot of fun.
Two weekends ago Mike and I had our first BBQ. We had some friends over and started up the BBQ. Although the potatoes were a little burned I think everyone had a great time. This last weekend Mike and I were able to get outside and do some yard work. We were able to clean the pond and put some fresh water in there. I was very excited to find out that the pond has a fountain and a waterfall. When the weather gets warmer again I will take a picture and post it so you can see it. On Sunday we went to Austin because Mom and Dad were becoming Deacon's of their church. We spent the day with family and had a great time.
Today when I got home from school I received a message saying that there was an arrangement of flowers waiting for me at Safe-way. They are beautiful and I love them! Thank you again!

Girls Night Out!!

On friday I made some last minute plans to have a bunch of girls over for a girls night out. They all brought snacks and we watched "Take the Lead". It was a hit. Me being the smarty pants that I am, completely forgot to take any pictures so you will just have to use your imaginations. There were about 9 of us which created some good times. Mike did not want to hang around a bunch of girls so he got some guys together and they played poker at the youth pastors house. We both had a great time and said that we should have to do it again sometime (maybe next time I will take some pictures).

Exam

I am not sure how many of you know, but I am taking a course through distance education. I wrote my exam this last week. Everything seemed good so I sure hope they mark the way I feel. I am also trying to work things out so that I can start massage theropy in the fall so if you remember just pray that everything works out.

Snowboarding!




On February first the Peters family (mom and dad p, Rebecca, Mike and myself) took a trip to the United States of America to go snowboarding. I had not been to a hill in a long time so my skills were a little rusty. Mike and Rebecca however took to the hill like monkeys in a tree:) They proved their mad skills by clearing the jumps and getting some air.

Sleep over!!






In the first week of January my favorite girls came to our house for a sleep over. We went to the library to take out books and movies. We went skating at the oval. We ordered in pizza and the best thing of all, the girls got to sit in our Jaccuzi tub which was so cooool!!

And who could forget the paper crafts!!

All settled!!

Ok so things after christmas just seemed to keep going and I am a really big procrastinator, therefore this is my first post since Christmas so there is alot to fill you in on. For those of you who may be checking this out from over seas I will try to keep it updated with pictures and stuff so you can see what is going on in our lives.
