Fun in the Sun!
It has been a busy week around here! We are enjoying the beautiful weather as much as possible while the guys are without work and Ionka is visiting.
Last Saturday we went garage sale hunting in a nice neighbourhood and came home with Simeon's first tricycle! He was VERY excited about it and we only had to pay $5! (Deyan was also excited about his purchase of a wine kit!)
We spent the rest of our Saturday doing some house organizing and watching episodes from the first season of "Lost" (our new favorite evening past-time). Sunday was also busy as we went to Danielle and Ryan's farm to celebrate one of Sim's friends, Reuben's 2nd birthday! We don't have any pictures but it was lots of fun seeing the horses (including a new foal) and kittens and tractor as well as running around outside, playing ball and eating yummy food! The only downside was Tyler bringing home a couple of wood ticks! He was NOT impressed! (Come to thi
nk of it, neither were we at 3am when he came in to our room to ask us how to get rid of them! Heehee)Personally, I've been very busy this week with business meetings, teaching, prenatal visits, church meetings, etc. I've been out every evening for as long as I can remember!
Thursday was Deyan's Convocation. It was pretty boring, but I was SO proud of him that I went, kids in tow, to sit through the hours of blah blah just so I could hear his name announced and watch him receive his diploma. Unfortunately, the portable DVD player I had brought for Sim ran out of batteries and the only plug-in available made the stage not visible for me. Oh well. I did watch Dey walk to the front and I did cheer very loudly when they said his name! :) He says that as hard as he worked, this degree is just as much mine for all the sacrifices I've been willing to make for him along the way. What a guy! Did I mention he brought home a dozen rozes for me the other day...just because? I am so thankful to have such a wonderful husband who really loves me with all his heart. And I am SO GLAD IT'S FINALLY OVER!!! Dey's mom and Tyler came along as well. Ionka is very proud of her son! Tyler also deserves a huge congratulations because he just graduated from the University of New Brunswick with a bachelor's of business administration this spring. He missed his convocation because he was here with us (not that he really minded - the pomp and circumstance that is) so we were able to celebrate his achievements as well. We all went to eat at a nice German restaurant. Yummy schnitzel!
Yesterday we d
ecided to go to the beach! We had some things to get o
rganized so we didn't end up going until almost suppertime. But it was so hot that it worked out perfectly. It was Esther's first time and she loved it! Simeon had fun of course, once he remembered everything! It was nice to go on a weekday evening when it was so quiet at Bird's Hill Park!
Today I had a birth to go to. Baba helped Dada with the kiddies. It wasn't too lon
g and we were still able to go to Bryce's Welcome to the World party. Simeon and Isaac had so much fun together! I am exhausted now and still have a full weekend/week ahead of me! If I haven't seen you or talked to you in awhile - now you know why! :) In other news, Deyan is applying in person for a steel construction job on Monday. Now would be the time for him to get a job so please pray!
Oh, I almost forgot! Esther cut her first 2 teeth this week! She did pretty well with them. She is having lots of fun making new noises these days, trying new foods, learning some signs/words. So fun! One of her favorite things to do is still the jolly jumper - and boy can she get air!
