oh yeah...Dallas

So Russ, Lucas & I (and my dad and step-mom, sister, future brother-in-law and both my brothers) are going to Dallas in March. Dad and Heather are paying for our airfare and my aunts in Texas are providing the accommodations, i.e. their homes!! Should be totally awesome! I have super cool aunts! And uncles. They have never met Lucas, so I think they are as excited as we are!

Russ & I are already planning on going to a Stars game...they play Vancouver while we're down there so Russ is going to try and find a Canucks jersey to wear to the game. Should be a laugh riot!

I'm going to try and get some scrapbooking done tonight for the Techneek post tomorrow (and for the Scrapjacked challenge. Two birds, one stone, you get it.), check Etsy, hang out. I've been cooking up a storm tonight! I made dinner, plus soup for lunches, plus an extra baked veggies dish for lunch tomorrow (Chan & KC I hope you like root vegetables...hint hint). i was going to make muffins as well, but I have to get this other stuff done. Maybe tomorrow while the little one is at playschool.

Speaking of playschool, we're thinking of "firing" our duty-days lady. She has so dropped the ball on so many occasions, and we have giving her plenty of free passes. Granted it is a volunteer position, but you still have to do it right! Trystan's Mom, my pal Vanessa is the mom tomorrow...Lucas knows her so I think he does okay when she's there. Teacher Shannon says he was a lot more talkative on Tuesday than he usually is, which is awesome to hear. He was really excited to go back...we woke up early and got dressed and he told me right away that it was a playschool day and he was going to play with the farm!

I'm working on a layout of Lucas' first pictures with his first camera! My aunt bought him one of those indestructible, waterproof cameras made for kids, and he loves it! He hasn't quite figured out how to look at the screen before taking the pic, so there are lots of walls and floors, but it's still fun!

later...

P.S. I just searched for vintage clocks on Etsy and found 25 pages of results...I am so in trubble!! I'm never going to anything else done. Stupid Beautiful Wonderful I'm-In-Love-With-You Etsy!!
