Edmonton Trip !

There was a fire at Canfor last Saturday so we recieved an unexpected week off. What better time to take young Seth to Edmonton to meet his daddy's family !?! We drove straight through last Sunday via Jasper.
One of the high-lites of the trip was seeing a family of 4 bears. This little guy was about 35 feet up the tree. We left before an anticipated accident that we didn't want our kids to witness!

Our home base for the week was my dad Larry's, and my step mom Dar's place.

Each time we go to "Big E" we pick a touristy type place to bring the kids to. This time it was the Space Science Center, and the kids had a blast ! I got to visit quite a good portion of my family including Dad and Dar, Mom and Mike, Grandma M and Allan, Grandma J and Shelly, my brother Matt (went to Spiderman 3 with him) Wendy and her kids, Jill & Jay and their kids, Cherylyn and her boys. Plus Greg & Crisie and their 3, and Rick & Trish with their little one all in Fox Creek. Not bad for a 5 day rally !

SMARTASS ANSWER OF THE YEAR

A college teacher reminds her class of tomorrow's final exam. "Now class, I won't tolerate any excuses for you not being here tomorrow. I might consider a nuclear attack or a serious personal injury, illness, or a death in your immediate family, but that's it, no other excuses whatsoever!"

She told me we couldn't afford beer anymore and I'd have to quit.

Then I caught her spending $65 on makeup.

And I asked how come I have to give up stuff and she didn't.

She said she needed the makeup to look pretty for me.

I told her that was what the beer was for.

I don't think she's coming back.
