A day in the Life of a Princess...

 

Everyone thinks being a princess is easy...
But...let me tell you....
 The life of Spoiled Royalty can be pretty tough...

  

 First you have to wake up with a smile on your face...
ready to greet your  servants...parents
who are waiting to take care of your every need..
You know the routine...
diapers changed...
get dressed...
 
  

Have to make sure your royal subjects are awakened also...

  

 Some things the parents can't do for you...
Got to keep those pearly whites
all shiny and sparkling for the adoring public...

  

Hair has to be all washed and clean...
crown in place...

  

 Hmmmmm....
What to do with the day....

  

  

 So many things to do, and so little time...

  

 Royal subjects to boss around...

  

 Bottles to drink....

  

 Royal invitations to accept....

  

 Fashion trends to set...

  

 Smiles to bestow....

  

and handsome suitors to turn away...

 

At the end of the day...I fall down in exhaustion...
After all I just do too much...'
And tomorrow, 
I will have to start all over again....

Weekend sledding...

 

This time we brought Talon with us..
Unfortunately we have a really small car...
so the poor kid was squished between two car seats...
and on the way to the hill...They ALL fell asleep...

  

 We had to wake them up, 
and we actually didn't think the trip was going to last long..

  

  

Jeremy was freezing cold, 
but he toughed up after a few minutes, 
and they actually lasted two hours!
We kept asking if they were ok..'
but they kept saying one more time!

  



 

  

 Gracie actually even took a couple spins..

  

  

 By the end we had Tally going down on his own!

I guess we did have a blizzard!

Adventure girl....



 Adventure girl has been at it again...
Nothing is safe in the house with her anymore..

 

If it is within her reach...she is in it,
has it,
eats it,
scatters it...



or is ON it....

Good thing we didn't want a quiet, shy, retiring type....

Blizzrd 2010!



 This was our road the day after the blizzard hit...
Regina actually had a snow day...
They NEVER do snow days here...
at least not in the 8 years I have lived in SK...
The buses were not running,
schools were closed,
about half the businesses were closed...


 

Kendal and I actually made it to church on Sunday,
but it wasn't a fun drive..


 

 I was impressed with the neighbor a couple of doors down
from us, who came and used his snow blower on our driveway,
and most of our neighbors driveways,
and on the back alley...

 

I was NOT so impressed with one of our direct neighbors
who rented a Bobcat to clear his driveway,
and the part of road in front of his house,
but piled all the snow in our yard..
I understand it needed to go somewhere,
but he could have at least cleared in front of our house then as well...it was all of five more feet..

 

 

This is our back yard...
Our garbage bin is back there...
I did have a path shoveled to the gate..
I think we may have garbage on our deck till some of the snow melts...LOL!

My birthday Boy...

We brought Jeremy to It's a Blast
for his third birthday...
The kids had a great time,
but we were a little disappointed..
It has gone down hill since we have been there last..
We were ignored at the door,
for about five minutes or more when we got there,
when we did get in,
there were no balls in the pits..
When we did ask about it,
We were told they had been shifted
to the other pit...
(great excuse..couldn't make up another?)
There were no balls there either..
We wouldn't have been that annoyed..
except they have raised the prices...  :(
Kids still had fun though...
We stayed for two hours..



 The birthday boy...
