weekend update

We had a good weekend. Mum went away to the cottage and as horrible it is to say, it was very nice that she was gone. It’s been a bit stressful with all of us in the same house so CJ and I were able to relax and not worry about the place being messy or the kids eating a bit of junk food. We had a really nice weekend. On Saturday one of my “board friends” Michelle, came over with her husband and her kids. We had a great time. It was so nice for CJ and I to have some socialization with people our own age. Also Michelle and Jamie recently (a year ago) moved back to Canada from the States - so they were totally familiar with all the hassles that we have gone through. We had a nice morning and a barbeque. At 1:00 I had to run to the bank to sign mortgage papers so that cut our visit short… but I am looking forward to when we get together again.

Here are some pics.

Then, on Sunday we went shopping! CJ and I bought a beautiful new bedroom set. I am so excited. We finally get our king sized bed that I have wanted for so long. Here’s a link. I also got some bedding and stuff for the kids’ new rooms from Pottery barn Kids… their stuff is just sooooo adorable. I am so excited to decorate the rooms! We get the keys to our new house tomorrow. Mum will be watching the kids while CJ moves our stuff. In the evenings CJ and I will unpack and get the house ready and the kids will come over on the weekend. I REALLY want to have Mackenzie’s room painted pink before she arrives… she would absolutely FLIP!
