Posting Anew

oke dokie.....here we go....


Tracy at Tracy's Treasures urged me to just start writing and something would happen!  So here I go.

Some background.... I am 45, married 2 years to my hubby, a recent immigrant from Canada, a proud mother of two wonderful kids who really are, the best things i ever did with my life, and a GRAMMIE to Mr Jackson Ryan...the cutest, most wonderful, simply amazing baby in the entire world!! ( yea...that was a little too much huh???)

Moving on....I am now living in Washington state after moving from Victoria, B.C. (where I moved to after leaving a small town in Northern BC!)  I have had a lot to adapt to, meaning the people and whatnot, not so much the geographical location.  I prefer cities and suburbs..I like having things at my ready...if I should need them.  The hardest thing about the move was leaving the kids, but they are both grown and living their lives in northern Alberta.

Hmmm...I have a cat Hemi.( 8 years).and two Border Collies..Briar who is 18 months and Finnigan who is 4 months.  They are siblings from different litters.  They keep me busy and my mind off of other things! In fact..Briar is in my profile pic...

A funny story about the dog's names.... both are named after CANADIAN things....  "Briar" is from the Tim Horton Brier..and Finnigan...well..hello Mr DressUp!! (for those not Canadian and old...Mr DressUp was a children show and a true Canadian Icon  RIP Ernie.)

 Prepare yourselves for a lot of rambling about the dogs. (as long as I don't turn into crazy dog lady we are good)

Moving on...I scrapbook... i have been scrapping since around 1995 and right now...I am totally all over the mini book craze! 

ok....that is enough useless info for one day......  thanks!!!
