What A Wonderful Suprise!!!

Spring is in the air. The most enjoyable thing about spring is the birth of all the animal babies. Our first birth arrived this morning. Gertrude our Dexter cow had a heifer calf. When the time comes to name our new additions we like to look at the baby and let it tell us. Gert's new baby looked as sweet as a flower so we named her Poppy-Rose.

We heard that Craig,Darcy, and Jesse is coming for a visit and so you know what that means!!!!! I was baking chocolate chip cookies and that took me only 10 minutes so I am doing better. My new goal is being more independent of cooking and cleaning and etc.

When I was done baking them I had Mom to put the cookies on the pan and taking them out onto a plate because I was going to go outside for a nice walk. Craig, Jesse, and Darcy arrived and went inside.

When all the cookies were cooked I put them on the pan and the rest on a rack to cool. It took no time at all for them to all disappear so then I went and loaded it up again and again and again and over and over. When they all left there was only 7 or 8 of them left.

Later in the afternoon some of our neighbours came up and that was very nice to see them. I saw a friend of mine from school and she has changed a lot. We had tea and my cookies that I made around the camp fire.

After they left I stayed around at the camp fire for some time and then we went inside to have some supper... I will talk to you guys later....

ps. I am sorry that I have been so late on posts very very busy and tired.

Income Tax Time

It is Income tax time! It is my job to help my dad ... Its so fun and every year I see that I am getting better at it....especially with my new adding machine that dad surprised me with last week.

I woke up to a glorious, wonderful day, the sun was shinning through the tree's, and oh it was beautiful. Dad and I did income tax all morning and all afternoon. It was my job to add up the GST (Good Services tax) and the subtotal.

With the new calculator I can say it was so easy, much easier than before. I print off the totals and tear the paper and then we staple it to the receipts. Dad said it was an investment.

I vacuumed and made a nice hot fire. Mom was making Basmati Brown Rice. And I like to tell you it was really good people all over the world eat it all the time.

I played some 1100 centry games on my computer and looked my favorite blogs. We watched the Waltons and we had some popcorn with some Kraft Dinner cheese packet sprinkled on and it was crunchy tasty and the most pleasant kind of treat to watch movies. Bye Bye for today*********Kaylee and Reggie

Thursday Already!?!?

Its Thursday already and I can't believe it.

Today I got up a little bit late. Tyrell went with Darcy for a sleepover yesterday and I went to town with Dad. I quickly got up and got ready for town and guess what!!! It took me 5 minutes to get ready!!! I heard that we are leaving for town in a hour.

When we went I read a book called Elise`s Stolen Heart. It is a really good book also. Its about a boy wanting to Marry Elise just for the money. Elise doesn`t have a mother because when she was born she died. She had a nurse maid to take care of her and still does.

When she turns twenty she will get a million dollars. That's a lot of money back in there days and even these days. In the 1800 in Landsdale,Ohio. She is 18 and is on a holiday with her Auntie Wealthy.

Anyways enough about a book on with the day here Kaylee and Reggie. When we arrived in town we went and did some banking business and then we had a bit to eat. We went to A&W ( yes I know it is really bad for you and when you watch food inc it makes you feel that you don`t want to eat a burger or anything there in fact) and so then we went into Canadian Tire to eat.

I just had french fries and a small Root Beer. Later on when we were almost done eating well Dad not me because I am a slow slow eater even ask all my friends, Craig who is my older brother works at Kenver and he had went to A&W.

I phoned him on the cell and said `` Hey Craiggy whatcha havin for lunch`` he said ``A&W what are you having``Same with you and I said look to you right`and so then he came and had some lunch with us.

Darcy came for lunch and he had his friend in his truck and he had A&W too. It was like a family reunion. Later we went into Canadian Tire and got a shot vac because our old vacuum is acting up. It can vacuum up water and also squirt water too well spray with a hose and stuff and its really cool.

We went and did our town stuff and also its tax time!!!! I love tax time I always help Dad and am getting better. I am going to add up all the GST because guess what. No Calculator so we have to buy one. Dad went and bought a calculator that prints the number on a paper and oh I couldn't wait till I get home.

When we got home we got all settled in and the we had fun with the calculator. And that's pretty much it...

Its Friday

Its Friday and I can't believe it.... Can you???? Plus its pretty much the end of March and onto April!!!! Time is flying so fast. Anyways on with the blogging...

Today I got up and had some breakfast and later we went outside. I went and fed the horses horse treats and they loved it. I tried getting a halter on Chico but he didn't want it. I brushed him down and he loved it.

Later I watched Tyrell and Dad building the shed. I was kinda helping Mom and Meg clean out the shed ( it is with all our tubs) I found my clothes tub and I have all my socks back... YAY!!!!Anyways I have lots of socks because Mom bought me some and then I had some socks from the past.

I went and did a fire and came back outside. Later on Jesse came and then Mom and I went inside and I got all cleaned up and I did my hair. I am very particular about my hair so it took me awhile to do it.

We got all ready for our Friday night and Jesse went to his house again but is coming back later. I was playing with Darcy and stuff like that....

Wednesday

Its Wednesday and guess what!!! Its Bag Sale at the Salvation Army again. It was hard getting up early but I managed. Dad is going to Fort St. John to look at a truck for Darcy. Megan is house sitting so we are going to pick her up and she is going with Dad while us kids do our regular town routine.



When we were all ready to go we went into the truck and waited until Mom was finished telling the dogs go in your home. When we go somewhere the dogs follow until Mom gets after them. When we were half way to town we went down a road to pick up Megan. Mom said " Do you know where you are going Bry" and he replied " Yes I do, do you know how much many times I was on there".



Down we go on a okay road. The truck steering isn't that great so we were all over the place. Mom was like basically having her hands over her eyes so that she doesn't have to see it. Tyrell and I were in the back and we were laughing our heads off. Dad was enjoying it also. When we arrived Megan was already to go and so she jumped into the truck and ready to go to town.



Dad dropped us girls at the Butcher Block and we took the car ( Darcy worked at the Butcher Block today and he took the car) and then we went to kill 30 minutes. We went to the bag sale and I got lots of hoodies and a pair of pants.



Dad came and picked me up for my piano lessons. Laurel loved me playing the piano. She said that I was VERY good. I had some ups and downs so she corrected me. Dad picked me up and we went to see Mom. Dad and Megan were off to FSJ and us kids and our Mom were going to go swimming with Alise instead of skating.



We went swimming and that was so fun. We went into the steam room and oh was that ever hot. I saw my old friends from public school. After swimming we went and decided to go to Tim Hortons for some lunch. Alise and I had a table of our own and we had some delicious lunch. Later on Mrs. Ford came while we were just leaving. Mom stayed with Tyrell and I went with Alise because it was almost time for sewing.



We went to sewing and guess what. I finished my blanket well not MY blanket a baby blanket for the people who bought our house. I don't know what to make for sewing any ideas????? Mom picked me up. Dad did buy the truck and picked up Darcy.



We went out for supper at Subway then went home.

Saturday Again?!?!?

Its Saturday Again and I can't believe it. Yesterday Jesse and Darcy came for out Friday supper and that was fun. The stove was so hot it wasn't even funny. It was 400 degrees and we were all sweaty. I will tell you a funny story. When we first came up here everyone was outside working while I was in here cleaning and cooking some supper. Mom put big logs on and so did I.

The stove was at 600 degrees ( can you imagine that!!!) and so then I went on the deck and Mom came and said that I should stop being silly. Mom was laughing when she came in here she said that it was really hot and I wasn't reacting at all. Today when I got up right before I had some breakfast the Halidays came for a bid. Us kids played Monopoly.

I went outside and put some ear drops in all the cats ears because they have an ear ache and plus inside it was all bloody and gross. I fed all the cats and they loved it. Later on I went inside and read my book. It was a nice book. It was so sad, Elsie's friend died.

Darcy cane up with the car and I made some Kraft Dinner and it was good. Later on Darcy, Tyrell and I went out for a walk.

Keep forgetting to post it... Ha ha

3rd Day Of The Week

Its the 3rd day of the week and I can't believe it!!!... Tomorrow is going to be our town day. We are thinking about going swimming instead of skating because skating is over. In sewing I am making a baby blanket and I think I should be done this week I hope. After the baby blanket I was thinking of making a shirt or something. On with today....

Today I got up and guess what we slept in that's because we went to bed very late. Yesterday we went to Jesse's and I did laundry and we watched a movie with Darcy and did the dishes. I had some cereal and its was good. Later on I cleaned the cabin. Washed dishes, vacuumed, and clearing the table. After vacuuming my arm was sore.

I got lots of snow and Tyrell and the pot was full to the brim. I played Monopoly with Tyrell and guess what!!! I own Park Place and Boardwalk and that's the most expensive one there is, plus I have 2 houses so look out!!! I was poking my mouth with my fingers and guess what!!! I was feeling my silver tooth that the dentist put on and guess what!!! I put pressure on and it went onto the monopoly game board. It was so cool.

A few days I was watching the Walton's and I pulled out the tooth also. I have a huge gaping space in my mouth and plus there is also a wiggly tooth that is beside the gaping space and so then I will soon pull that out but my mouth is in to much pain. I am growing my twelve year old molars right now and its growing in all places and plus all the teeth that are lost and growing so I can't wait till all of the teeth are all done growing.

I helped Mom make supper because Dad and Mom were outside building a green house. I did the meat loaf and peeling potatoes and keeping the fire going. Jesse came up with his sled and right now we are visiting. I don't know if he is going to stay for supper. He probably is I think.

I read Alise's blog and I hear that Ardene's warehouse is open so I heard. I am going to ask my Mom if we can go there. So excited!!!!!

At Jesse's

We are at Jesse's showering, cleaning, and doing laundry. Today when I got up I let Reggie out for a walk and then came back in just going to have my breakfast. Dad called his Mom on the phone to say happy birthday and then we all said that and then Tyrell and I played Happy Birthday on

the piano and boy I sure can tell you that I was very VERY rusty on it.

Dad asked Grandma if we wanted to play a song for her and she said sure. Tyrell played his nice song and then it was my turn next. I played it and I was a bit rusty also. Dad said to Grandma that I just woke up so I was a bit wonky.

Later on we went to Jesse's place. I am going to cut my bangs that is if I could find some scissors. I did Jesse's dishes and boy was there lots so when he comes home he doesn't have to worry about washing. When I finished I played Halo with Tyrell and that gave me a headache so I stopped.

I played Hockey with Dad while Tyrell went and had a shower. I didn`t know how to play so Dad showed me the remote controls and guess what!!! It turns out that I beat him. 2 to nothing. I did pretty good considering that was my very first time playing it. I don`t want to toot my own horn or anything.

Right now I am watching Tyrell and Dad play hockey.

Kaylee and Reggie.

ps. I am going to go to town tomorrow so don`t get your hopes up to much for me writing. Ha ha talk to you later

Wednesday

Ah today is Wednesday. The weekend goes by so fast. Soon we will start our town days again next week because all you know of me sewing and playing the piano.

Today I got up and had some eggs on toast then got dressed. It was snowing again so we stayed inside and made a fire and I read a book. Its a pretty good book if I say so myself.

We stayed in the cabin for a bit then we did the goats and then we rode the horses. It was so fun but Moniet was being a cow. She would body check me and its so not fun.

I went inside and made a nice hot fire and then made a pot of tea for Mom and Dad. I made them eggs on toast while Mom was on the computer and then I washed the dishes and then watched Corner Gas with Tyrell.

WE GOT THE GIANT GOAT GAZELLE AND THE BUCK

Its a Monday and guess what!!!!??? WE GOT OUR GIANT GOAT GAZELLE AND THE BUCK!!!!! 2 of our neighbours came and dropped off our goats. Mom was really happy. The gazelle came and guess what. Inside of our corral she jumped it so she is in the hay yard where we feed our cows and Horses.



By the way, yesterday Wes and Debbie and their children came. We always love it when they come. They dropped of their horses. It was a very nice time with them. Grace wanted to stay outside while the adults went inside of the cabin so I played with Grace. It was so hilarious when I had the kitty Marshmallow she said " I feed kitty" and so then we fed them for a little bit and then fed the goats some bread and some hay.

We went in with the kitty. We don't let the kitties in but it was so nice for Grace. We drew pictures. Grace just went on the bed and she curled up in the blankets and pillows with the kitty, it was so funny we hardly could see her or the cat.

Later on we went for a walk to the dugouts to see if they were full from the runoff. It was a long walk but the day was so warm, it was nice.
