Mom and Dad arrived safely early this evening and Dad couldn't wait to show off his new bling-bling! He now is the proud owner of the Alberta Centennial Medal which makes him an official redneck!
The guys stayed home with the boys and much like Monica and April, Mom and I snuck away for some much needed "away time" from the guys. We hit the malls and finished up our last minute Christmas stocking stuffers. It's just not very effective trying to power shop with the wee ones whining, crying, begging for toys or the big boys either for that matter!
H is having a sleepover tonight and heading to Medicine Hat to visit Papa Johnston with Mom and Dad tomorrow and drop off gifts for the MacLean's. Just a day trip, we should all be having dinner together tomorrow night if everything goes as planned.
And how is Dad feeling after his surgery you may ask...well he's been busy trying to annoy the heck out of mom and he's also managed to bring his own pre-made dinners...the guys had moose stew and the ladies had beef stew tonight, Dad made lasagna for dinner tomorrow and yes, they even brought their own turkey. God bless their cotton socks. I'm not totally sure what that means but Dad says it a lot and it seems appropriate.
Only a few more days until the big day.........

Tell your dad he looks awesome with his new bling bling!!!!!! and could you please tell your mom and dad hi and Merry Christmas from us down here in bumble *#@* nowhere Alix.
Hey tell your mom and dad I said hi. Also a big ol' congrats to your Dad on the new medal. It looks great on him! I think this countdown of days is making me hyperventilate though ... sounds like you're already though, I guess this is why I'm panicking and you're not. Typical of me, rushing around at the last minute as always!
