Sorry it took me a while to report, but the trip to Calgary was fun for the most part. I have been reminded again why I am not ready to be a mother. As much as I love James, spending 4 straight days with him was quite trying for me. I got to do all the things I had hoped to do there. We visited with gramma and grampa, hit up Chinook, Gap Outlet, Calgary Zoo, and even saw my mom's cousin and aunt who I haven't seen in years! On our last evening there we convinced grampa to dig out their old 8mm film projector and some old home movies. That was really neat to see videos of my mom in the late 50s and early 60s.
I am thankful to have this long weekend just to relax and chill out. Jay and I slept in until 10:30am today, then just did nothing really all afternoon, then cooked supper and here we are a couple of hours later. Me chatting with Karen online and Jay reading the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe (did you know that it's going to be made into a movie to be released later this year??). For the rest of the weekend we have no really solid plans, other than church tomorrow and I am cooking lasagne for supper on Monday.
I have recently (within the last couple of days) gotten into watching the show Family Guy. Now it is incredibly offensive, however there are some irresistably hilarious scenes as well. I was watching one today and they were mocking Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street, and boy, I was crying I was laughing so hard. And in another episode they were mocking Ponyboy and Sodapop from the book and movie the Outsiders....anyone remember that (grade 6 with Mrs. Hawryliw for me...and Karen)??? And in another episode they did a little spoof on Charlie and the Chocolate factory with Peter all blown up like a blueberry. Now I totally wouldn't have understood that if I hadn't seen it a few weeks ago, and Jason FINALLY got it the other day when we watched it.
