Tucker and Snow


Jeremy and I took Tucker for a walk the other day and happened apon an arena. Which had a pile of snow out back. We then let Tucker off the leash to let him experience the snow! He had a blast!


He was bitting it and jumping in it, he really had a great time playing in the snow! I'm sure he'll b e a great help for when we decide to build a snowman! lol

In Winnipeg until Saturday October 27

We got here on Friday morning, we drove straight through!! Ohhh my was it ever a long drive and did I ever get cranky at the end, I was very glad to get here and go to sleep. Winnipeg is a nice city and I think that if you haven't ever been here, it should be make it on the list of things to do sometime. It's a big city, I think Fredericton would fit into like 3 streets! lol

Saturday Jeremy hung out with his buddies, and I relaxed at home still recovering from the driving. His mom seems nice. I briefly met some of Jeremy's friends, Mason and Hippy Dave. They are odd people, but that is what I had expected from the stories Jeremy had told me about them. Jeremy went out to the bar on Saturday night and was hilarious when he got home. He couldn't get the door unlocked so he banged on the window to get me to let him in, then he complained about why people would lock their door when other people, WHO HAVE A KEY, can't get in. he was just being drunken silly. That and he said babe know how I said we have 4000 dollars saved? Well, we need to change that to 3900 dollars. LOL...he's so funny.

Sunday, Jeremy took me out to show me his old house where he grew up, and his high school, where his friends lived and those such things. Then we went for supper at Grandpas house. It was a good meal, and good times. Altho his grandpas house is like steping into the 70's. Seriously it's like an episode of That 70's Show. OMG I so wish I could better describe the wallpaper, as the house has absolutely no paint, it's all wallpaper! LOL it's a huge house for an older man, however, Grandpa seems quite content with his house.

After supper we went to a pond across the street to see the Geese (that seems to be spelled incorrectly). There sure are a lot of them!!!

On Friday we went to the forks after we woke up. The Forks are quite tourist attraction, however I was more interested in the candy store that was in a train! LOL I had a Willy Wonka Chocolate bar...Yummy!! But my bar did not have a Golden Ticket in it, therefore no tours of Wonka Chocolate Factory for me! LOL

Apparently there is a bigger candy store, which Jeremy has promised we can go to before we leave, and I hope so because I could really go for some peanut butter fudge.

Sunday evening we went to the University of Manitoba, it was quite the trip, I enjoyed walking around the campus and seeing the buildings that Jeremy had his classes in.

Ohhhh and Saturday evening jeremy to me and his mom to OLIVE GARDEN!!!!!! IN CANADA!!!!!! I was too excited about that!! I really wanted to go there, from the time I seen the sign all the way to Saturday so like 2 days! LOL It was delicious!

Last Day at UPS

After 7 years of employment at UPS, Friday, October 5, 2007 was my last day. I will miss the people I have met and built relationships with and even some of the ones that I haven't.

The girls at work are awesome, I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most sentimental and thoughtful people I have ever met.

Thursday, we had a potluck at work and the workgroup got me a few things as going away gifts. I got a picture of Fredericton in a frame, it's so beautiful, I love it. I also got a little outfit for the baby on the way in the color green with a little green hat to go with it. I also got a heart monitor, which will let me listen to the baby's heart beat at home, I can also record it and email it to friends. They took a group picture and had everyone sign a card and the group picture they are holding a sign that says "We'll Miss You" that made me cry a little bit. I'm very lucky to have worked with such fine people!
