Happy Birthday Canada



My long weekend is almost over but it was a good one. Nothing really terribly exciting happened I guess that's why I think it was so great. We have been pretty busy lately so it was nice to slow down a bit. Friday (Max and my holiday) we took Mom's camera to be fixed, (long story for another time there) bought birthday gifts for Papa and Scarlett and went to Little Feet to play. We met Daddy for lunch and then napped and played outside all afternoon.

Saturday we cleaned up the yard and the garage. Max went to Pappy and Papa's, went and saw T's lacrosse game and had a sleepover. Steve and I got to have a date! That's right, dinner and a movie just the two of us. We went to Mongolian Grill which which I had been wanting to go to. Very yummy. We saw Superman Returns, which was nostelgic and fun. It was great to go out just us!

This morning we went to T's game and got Max back. I missed him, love getting the big hugs and kisses. We filled a big pool in the backyard and had a bbq lunch outside. Max and I had long afternoon naps while Steve had a little nap and worked on building the fence gate.

Reason #5068583094 why I love this man....
he built the fence gate. I no longer have to chase Max and Sydney out into the front yard (and ocasionally down the street).

After the gate was finished we pulled up chairs to the pool and soaked our feet while Max and Sydney played in the water. A great end to our quiet, relaxing long weekend. Steve has tomorrow off but I think he's still going to go in and get some work done. I was thinking I could go in the afternoon and help him clean up his office but we don't have any takers on watching Max so I don't think it's going to happen.

Happy 139th Birthday Canada.
