Drilling our new well...

In November we got a very unexpected surprise(not a good one either) our well collapsed. There was an expense we were not looking for! Regardless we need water to live so thus we dug a new well....290 feet, and we have the best water around now! So come spring time we will get it all trenched in properly. Here is what was in our yard for over a week in December. So instead of a new deck that we had planned to build next summer, if you come to see us we can sit around the new well!! :)

Family Pictures

A good friend of ours took our family pictures this year. It was sorta spur of the moment and we all look a little tired because we were up late the night before, etc. etc..(enough excuses already...right!) anyways most of you that will be looking at this blog got the one picture but here are some more of that day as well. All the pictures were taken at a place called River Landing, in Saskatoon. We hope to do this again, maybe in the summer.

Late Fall Pictures

I know once again it has been forever since I posted and really I do fell bad about it, but it is a matter of sitting down and doing it. So I will try today to get that accomplished.....if my computer cooperates as well... In this post is Brodie and Danika late in the fall. It was a miserable day but we managed to get a few pictures done in case it snowed. As we know now the snow did not come for along time, but it sure felt like it that day.

Sisters!

Linda's two sisters from Ontario came for a visit at the end of October...here they are Rhonda, Ev, and Linda

Go Riders Go!!

the coin toss
#7 is a favorite player in this house
We managed to get tickets to one of the last Rider games. Not that they had a very good season, in fact they had a terrible season, but they did manage to win this one against the Ti Cats.It was freezing cold and what we thought was warm enough was in fact not even close, did a lot of clapping and stamping to cheer as well as try and stay warm. Hot chocolate helped as well.
