Poker Anyone???

This week has been an eventful one for Chris and I. We went to town on Wednesday for a baby shower a friend of ours had for Zach. It was really nice to see our friends from Whitehorse. Funny how when you move you say you will keep in touch but sometimes life takes over and then you find yourself a year down the road saying "I haven't seen you in so long, we should get together". Next thing you know another year will go by and you run into that same person and the same thing will be said and the cycle continues. I am probably the worst for doing that!

Cleo went to the vet Thursday morning for a booster shot and to get some bloodwork done to make sure her epilepsy medication is working and to see if we can reduce the dosage for her. Since we put her on the meds she hasn't had a seizure - thank goodness!! She weighed in at a healthy 57lbs this time. Fortunately for me Cleo has been an excellent dog to have around the kids, Dani loves to cuddle with her on the dog bed in the living room. Cleo also receives routine dental check ups - courtesy Dani!!!


On Thursday afternoon Chris and I headed back to Teslin and this is what greeted us out under the bridge!!!



Half of the town showed up to witness the struggle!! Some were out on the ice and a lot were up on the bridge looking over. The people that own the loader built an A-frame out of steel to go and act as a hoist type of thing to get the loader out.
On Friday afternoon they had managed to get the loader to the surface before it and the A-frame made their way back down to the bottom!!!! This has been a very comical situation right from the get go!

Last night Chris and I went to play poker at our friends house. There was five of us playing and the buy in amount was twenty dollars each. We were playing texas hold 'em - just like you see on TV. I finished in first place and took home sixty smackers! I went to bed smiling!

We got home last night shortly after midnight, Dani went right back to sleep and I stayed up with Zach till about one thirty. Chris went right to bed seeing as he was the one who had to be up at eight for work this morning. Zach slept right until six thirty this morning!! I hope he keeps this up - Dani was sleeping through the night by the time she was two months old!

Here are some of the most recent pictures of the kids.

Enjoy.
