Yippee!!!!!!

Boy oh boy, sure is something else to sort and pack and sort and whew, can't believe this. My brain feels like it's fried, umm or scrambled or maybe poached. LOL I ordered a beautiful Nikon Digital SLR camera , using my airmiles last Thursday, received an email today saying it was on it's way, I was excited. We are northern Manitoba, things mailed to us from Ontario usually takes 10 days (from family in sudbury), welllllll, this white van pulled up in the driveway and I saw and said to hubby yippee it's here... and yes folks, it only took 6th days to get it... Now I'm really excited, reading and reading, need to put the program on comp. so I can go through the tutorials and also learning from Denise is great... tomorrow will be hectic but will make every effort to get few minutes to play ....hehe... soooo to picture of it with the fuji digital and will pass this one on to hubby, umm maybe he'll take up some hobby , not...hehe...here is the camera. Also went to a good walk tonight with friend Denise, and of course the mosquitoes had a good meal from us, hehe...have to remember to put on bug spray or something any suggestions other than pesticide??? let me know and I'll be more than happy to give it a shot, maybe that email someone sent me , using listerine??I'll smell good hehe.....nite , Ciao, Salute, bonsoir mes amis and Good night John boy,,,,,lol

Ok so I put the cap on backwards heehee

Fireworks

Ok, we weren't going to go there LOL as if...My daughter called last night and asked if we were going to the fireworks for Canada Day.. I said well,,,,, not sure...she asked us to pick her and the boys up so we could all go see this.. Of course I'm a softy right,,,yep we went to the fireworks...they didn't start til 11:05pm, as I said before, the sun doesn't quite go down early here and dusk is well,,,,ummm light dusk. When they did start, we just laughed so hard at the little guy and also the other DJ...Chase kept saying "OH PRETTY BUBBLES" he then tried to blow on them, and pointing his little finger and tried to pop them he'd say.. DJ was just in awe, and kept saying wow, great fireworks....sooo I'm sure happy we went, we enjoyed more watching the kids than watching the works......Today I did some weeding in the front flower beds and then went for a nice long walk with Denise..wheew, that was good and felt great, thanks Denise... Also went down and did more of this Chelsea Tote from http://www.kayewoodtv.com/ktv.html (on the right hand lower side click on bar that says " video list" scroll down to Chelsea tote...very cute) I should have this finished tomorrow then I can take pics and maybe select great fabric to make a few more LOL (once I know what I'm doing hehe)........so here's some pictures and happy quilting to Ya All EH!.....PS: I will put a little something together regarding the plane in the next few days... I want to get all the info I can, this is really interesting history .....
