Disturbing

I am becoming quite an active member in GPAC, or Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada. I am forever reading and posting on their chat board, and someone mentioned feeding their grey Iams. Well, let me tell you I'll never buy it. I did not know the history of Iams, but they do all their testing for their products on animals. There was a big undercover report that was done showing exactly how these animals were treated. I was physically sick to my stomach watching this. If you dare, the website is http://www.iamscruelty.com/, but honestly, I warn you, it's gruesome.

Not much to post

Not much to post today. The truck is back on the road and running again, 2 inches higher than it was a week ago and a new alternator and battery. Colby and I are on are own tonight as Rob is working tonight and we're having the Chenell family over for a bbq for supper tomorrow night. Was hoping to catch the buskers tomorrow but I'm not seeing that happening, as Dad is painting the new deck and we're going over to help. I feel obligated to put something on this blog because I know how frusterating it is to read other people's blogs and they don't update for a week (TAWNY). hehehe. We're heading to Kelly's parents cottage in 2 weeks with the motorhome and I can't wait. Then, it's off to Cape Breton for Adelle's christening. I'm really looking forward to the weekend away. I'm actually looking forward to the drive down and back, so Rob and I can actually have some time together! I believe Adam and Genevieve are coming up sometime this month with the baby, and from the pics that she has sent she's changing soo much! I can't wait to see them!

Help

Anyone know of a cheap way to have printing done? We are trying to start a new fundraiser for GPAC and are thinking on compiling a Cookbook for Dogs. Since this is all non profit, anyone have any ideas how we could get it printed real cheap or know of someone in metro who would be willing to donate?

More wedding pics!

What a silly goose!

What a silly goose I am!? I just realized that the tiny button at the top of creating a post called Add Image will actually ADD AN IMAGE to your blogger! And I've been doing it the long way all this time! Look out for the pictures coming now!

I may have a knack for this photography stuff?!

I took pictures Friday night of a guy from work and his fiancee. If I do say so myself, they turned out quite well. I haven't received official permission from them to post their pics, but one little picture won't hurt, right?!

So much to blog.. so little time

I now have a minute to write about everything that has gone on for the past week and I'm drawing a complete blank. My relatives came down for the wedding, Uncle Mike from Ontario, Aunt Rene and her sons Gregory (11) and George (15), my Uncle Clar and his wife Rosemary (who has never been here) all arrived Thursday before the wedding. Friday we had a bbq at mom's for all the family that arrived and my dad had a FEW too many to drink ( he drank most of a 2-4 himself). Rob helped him along with 3/4 of a 40 oz of rum by himself. Saturday morning had me meeting up with Kelly and taking many rolls of film. The wedding was beautiful and the meal at the reception was amazing. We stayed at the hall until 12:30 and Colby was awake and there the entire time. He was a complete doll. BJ sang Try by Blue Rodeo at the wedding and he did an amazing job. No one from the family knew that BJ could sing. They spend a lot of time at karoake and it shows. Sunday had us at the gift opening, and Sunday night had us at my Aunt Rose's for a family dinner, Newfoundland style. Turkey, dressing, greens and all the trimmings. Monday we spent with my Aunt and Uncle, Monday night we went out to dinner at Boston Pizza for our anniversary, Tuesday we had planned to have Gregory and George come out for the night but Colby got sick ( I would think from him being soo off schedule), Wednesday we went to the beach and had George and Gregory for the night, and Thursday everyone went home. In between all this Rob and Dad put an extension on Dad's deck and they are now fixing Rob's truck. We were in a parade with Koda yesterday and now I'm home just relaxing. Oh, and Friday night I took pics of Dave and Heather from work in Dartmouth. I had to replace the batteries in the camera. I'm surprised it's not smoking! Today we are having a turkey dinner at mom's. I need to go back to work just to get back on schedule!

Happy 7th Anniversary

Today Rob and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. I can't believe it has been this long. Watching BJ and Kelly get married this weekend has had me thinking of my own wedding and how much in love I was with Rob at that time. Well, I didn't think I could love him any more than I did on the day we got married. Boy, was I ever wrong. We have had 7 amazing years together, and I am more in love now that I have ever been.

Lots to blog

Lots to blog, not enough time. The wedding was absoutely beautiful. I took 18 rolls of pictures. I will be scanning and posting over the next couple of days.

Wedding eve!

Tomorrow is the big day. Everyone from out of town is here, and i'm soo excited to see them. Colby spent the morning with my Uncle Clar, and he is already spoiled. He is quite taken with him. I met up with my Aunt Rene, her boys Georgie and Gregory, Aunt Rosemary and Uncle Mike. I haven't seen Aunt Rosemary since I left Newfoundland 7 years ago, but she'll always look the same to me. I haven't seen my Uncle Mike in, well, I can't remember. I was living in Newfoundland at the time, so it would have to be 7 years if not more. Everyone is meeting here (mom's) tonight for a bbq and to have a few drinks with BJ before tomorrow. There's a 14 year old bottle of scotch that's getting opened tonight also, but shhhh it's a secret!
