PRETTY SOON............

WE ARE ON THE COUNTDOWN

FOUR DAYS UNTIL THE WEDDING


Someone will be sitting in this chair



Here we'll have a party of four!!!!



This little guy will not likely
be out and about

When the boy and his sister
were small they named
two snakes

NO FEET
and
STANLEY

I wonder if this is

NO FEET
or
STANLEY



OH MY GOSH

Will we have this yard cleaned up by Saturday?

You just wait and see!!!!!

***************

HAVE TO SAY
My blog would not be
complete without
having a photo
of
Gwendolyn and Bing
(ha,ha,ha)



Joe called to Gwennie

"Gwendolyn, bath time"

What does Gwendolyn do?

What does Bing do?

Gwendolyn goes into the bathroom
and
jumps right into the tub

Bing follows Gwennie
but
does not jump in!!!!!!

We had lots of laughs
over this one

BLONDEE'S DAY AT THE COTTAGE


Blondee was reading this morning.......
She just picked up a new novel yesterday
before coming over to the cottage

Up jumped Bing to keep her company
and
of course Gwennie
had to be on the scene



That was short lived
as she donned her
Papa's t-shirt
and climbed up on the
top bunk to
start painting once again

A lovely little hornet
paid her a visit
so
Blondee switched
to
the tool box!!!



Papa went over to the mainland
so we decided to work together
and see if we could get
the tool box painted
before he got back


This is serious business


YEAH

We did it!!!!




She left her signature




She went in the river
to see if she could get
rid of the paint
that was here there
and everywhere!!!!!!!!!


Gwendolyn stayed by her side all the time
Followed her everywhere



Back in the cottage
Her side-kick's there too

Tonight Blondee
is with her
brother and Auntie
watching
BLACK EYED PEAS

Just a little story for
you all this evening!!!!

THE GRANNY AND GRAND-DAUGHTER TAKE UP PAINT BRUSHES


With paint brush in hand.....



She worked really hard
covering a lot of wood



She took time out to get this pic
of Papa



The carpenter started his
TOOL BOX
this morning

It will house the lawnmower
and garden tools



OMG
We have 3 days
One daughter has arrived
Another daughter arrives Wednesday
The bride and groom arrive Wednesday
The brother arrives Thursday evening

THIS IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
A WEDDING

Many things under the tarp
were in the 'old' shed
before the carpenter
started to renovate

Also
the bedding from our first
fifth wheel
is waiting to go
in the new bunks

WHAT A BACKYARD MESS



It is coming together



Feather beds and quilts
are anxiously awaiting



This is as far as I got this morning
before running out of paint
With a trip to the mainland
I'm ready to climg the ladder
tomorrow
providing we do not have another storm



The gardener-daughter
told me to jam pack
the window boxes

I did what she said!!!!!!

The potato vines are
taking over



The carpenter built a porch entrance
to the front of the cottage
We moved some rocks around

This happened a few days ago....

We're getting there
will give you an up-date
tomorrow night

IT'S HOCKEY NIGHT IN CANADA


That's right folks
It's hockey night
even though

THE BOY

played in Canton, Michigan



The 'hockey' boys are here
from far and wide

They hope to one day
play for the
Bismarck Bobcats
from North Dakota



OK EVERYONE
We are cheering for the red team
and
watching jersey # 6 
and 
 hockey pants # 16


He is trying to
JUMP
out of the way





All in a matter of a few seconds



Get that puck defenceman



# 6 tripped banging 
his head on the ice



Good job goalie
Good job defencemen



It's nice to see the
American and Canadian flags
side by side

The boys have played the first
of two 25 minute periods



The red team has a new goalie



This is a nineteen year old goalie from Russia



# 6 in action



The puck is bouncing



The puck is heading
right towards
the camera lady



Come on boys

GO RED GO



Are they dancing or playing hockey???

Seriously

The boys played a great game
it was good hockey
back and forth
back and forth

Now for the question

Ask me if I was in my glory

Where you in your glory camera lady?

YES I WAS!!!!!


THANKS
