busy at the house.. Where's Dalton???

Ian and the boys managed to get everything finished up today. They had one heck of a time figuring out the dormer above Dalton's room. Only because we changed the plans making the foyer come out instead of go in which meant Ian had some figuring to do to make it all work out. And look right.

They also got all the windows in and looking almost like a house now. The windows arrived late in the day and Ian was getting a little flustrated I think. But it all happened in the end.

Our front door on the other hand has not arrived. And no one is really sure why. So other than the front door it is looking pretty good. Ritchie and Colin will finish putting the door in now whenever it arrives.

You would really be surprised at how many people. Strangers to us just stop by and walk right into the house. On private property. Darin is getting so mad with people. I have to agree it is kinda nosey but I guess they are just curious. I would never be that brave to just walk into a house being built on some one's property like that though.

Colin came by and dug out the hole and drilled though the cement wall to install the sump pump today. So they are getting ready to pour cement in the basement soon. It's all coming along.

So Dalton is gone to my Mom's trailer for a few days. Then he is going with Auntie Tracy and Uncle Ed on vacation. I think they are going to the pioneer village. Then he will return back to the trailer. Then come home for the rest of summer holidays. Then school!!! Yay School.

I love to have my kids home with me but two months is almost to long for the kids. Dalton will be shocked when he gets back home and sees all that is done with the house. It's cool to be away all day or a couple of days and see all that has happened while you were away.

They have arrived........

Well..... I didn't think that I would have much to post about but..... When I looked out my window Tuesday morning I saw a motor home coming towards my house. It looked like my Grandparents but I thought "no way it couldn't be". It is getting too late in the month for them. ( Granny can't stand the heat not humidity Ontario has) they usually come around Easter...but apparently not this year!
Well it was them! Dalton looked out the front door and said "What the ?", up until two years ago when we went to Winnipeg to visit them, he thought that my Grandparents lived in the motor home. He was small and couldn't comprehend it was just for travel...

)

So anyway, I was quickly on the phone and took some time off work. Not all the time, just some time. They usually go and visit their other friends and family when I'm working. They have lots.

Granny has never seen the baby before so she was excited to meet him. She saw me pregnant with him at 9 months but that was it! Pictures of course and here but that is it. She said he was beautiful and looks a lot like me. I dunno I think he looks more like my brother and nephew.

This is my Granny. She is 80. Looking good eh? She is going to kill me if she sees the picture I posted. This was this morning when I first got her up. My Granny is so funny.... brace yourselves cause your going to laugh!

On Tuesday she asked if we could go to Walmart. Me not want to go shopping I thought HA! So innocently I said "sure". So we get to Walmart and I ask what she needs and she says underwear. She doesn't get much of a chance to shop so she figured she hadn't gotten any in so long soo..... I said what kind do you like and sh said I don't know. So I said well what are you wearing now and she said.... brace yourself... your Poppa's! I laughed until I thought I would pee my pants.

Well we got her 10 new pairs of underwear, 2 new bras, 3 new shirts and a new coat by the time we were done. So she is good to go and Poppa is getting his underwear back! The next morning I asked her how they fit and her reply was... Quite good I forgot how nice woman's underwear fit! "Only my Granny!"

Anyway, I thought I would post a picture of the flowers I got for her. Early Mother's day. They were so beautiful. They only cost $6.00.

So over the next few weeks I will be busy but I will be sure to make time to post a bit or two. So keep tuned in you never know what is going to happen next around here!
