Taylor's Home Town Boy!

Just wanted to share a link to Taylor's Sidney Crosby Pictures. He took these while we were in Nova Scotia. Sid the Kid was there on his birthday for a big parade. Taylor joined about 80000 people out to catch a glimps of there star player!

We warned Taylor not to be dissappointed by not getting an autograph as there would be thousands of people at the parade and closing ceremonies! Never did I imagine there would be this many show for the event! Anyhow, long story short....Taylor & Bill spent the day patiently waiting for Sidney and the Stanley Cup entourage. He managed to get a few decent shots and lots of blurry ones too! Icing on the cake...imagine my surprise when he came home with 2! signatures on his Stanley Cup Hat. Crosby & Talbot! This could just be his "kucky life"! I was thrilled for him and loved seeing the excitement as he told his story and showed off his hat!

Life Is Good

Just a quick page share before I head to work! This is a page I did (and LOVE) from an online course at Big Picture Scrapbooking. As soon as I saw the version Nic Howard had I knew exactly what picture I wanted to use for mine! I think it turned out great, and is definitely one of my new favorites! Picture is from our trip this winter.

Catching Up!

So today is August 17th, 2009. Just over a month and a half since I last updated my blog! Heck...how does life whiz by like this?

Anyway we have returned from a great trip to Nova Scotia and I now have the daunting task to go through my hundreds of photos to narrow them down to the best ones. I have gotten over the "I can't delete any pictures ever" attitude and try to only save pictures that have real special meaning to me or ones I am willing to share with other for what ever the reason! I will soon start to share some here and on my Smug Mug site.

Taylor is back to school in two weeks. This year they start on August 31st, just seems wrong! To me it seems like they are being shorted a week of an all ready too short, Alberta summer. ARGHH! We have started to pick up a few school supplies & he got his hair cut and highlighted today! Next Friday we have a date to go clothes shopping...he is in desperate need of some jeans...all of his have holes in the knees! Aren't kids supposed to grow out of that phase? His big ol' feet won't stop growing either so sneakers are also on that list!

So, it's past my bedtime again! I'll say good night to you all and I'll be back here soon!

PS...aren't my nephews and Taylor too cute for words!
