Hello again
All is going well so far.  Had Candice drop in for a visit during her quick turn around time in Halifax.  She will be returning this weekend and this time will be staying a few days to visit.   We are very excited to have her visit and are making plans to keep her very busy.  I will let her have one evening to herself to visit with friends that live in the area.
We are also hoping to make a quick overnight trip at the end of the month, to see Uncle Paul and Auntie Cheryl.
Joeye and Josh got to go to Build A Bear, but, Joeye is still looking forward to her shopping trip with Daddy and says she already knows what she is going to buy.  We all miss daddy and are waiting anxiously for his return.
Here are a few more pics that Josh and Jojo wanted me to post for daddy.
Hope everyone enjoys them cause we had fun taking them.


Here is a picture of Joeye with her new Build a Bear - Bunny,  She named her Flower.
 Joeye making a funny face for daddy.
 Joeye waiting only one more minute before it is her time for the computer.  She and Josh each take turns.

 Josh is now playing games on pbskids.org
 Josh's turn to make funny faces for daddy. 
I absolutely love spending time with them.  Now if I could only convince Caitlynn and Kelsey to let me take pics of them.   I will try and get some of them tomorrow.
