Another Beautiful Day at the Beach

Christmas in JULY!!

Friday night the pipe connecting to the dishwasher burst at mom's and dad's house and what a mess. Water was everywhere, even soaked downstairs in the closet where mom stores all her Christmas decorations. So everyone started to unpack everything to let it dry out. My neice Sarah decided to put the snowman outside to air out. And of course our family being so devilish and all....we couldn't resist plugging it in and blowing it up to surprise mom and dad when they got home. They are easily embarrassed by those things. We had a few good laughs and some strange looks...but it was all worth it in the end. Took some video clips but don't know if I can post them on the blog...not sure how.

The big 28!!!

Here are some pics from my birthday feast. It was such a good day. There was 13 of us in all (mom, dad, me, Chris, Charlene, Dylan, Tracey, Gordon, Sarah, Shelby, bro Chris, Savannah & Stephy, and later for the fire...brother's friend Blair). We had way way way too much food as usual, awesome fireworks (sorry no pics of those yet), and a visit from Gilbert the moose (named by Sarah and Shelby). We played croquet, v-ball, had supper and a bonfire followed by fireworks. Won't top that b-day anymore. :)

Western Brook

Here's the famous Western Brook beach I often talk about. We decided to go there the morning of my birthday. It was absolutely beautiful there, water still cold but the sand was so hot it was burning my feet. I wanted to get married there but am considering just getting pictures done there if we get married in NL. Too inconvenient for the guests. It's one of my favorite spots back home. Visited it every summer while away from home. Plan to visit all the time now. :)
