Not a lot going on in our muffy family. Still trying to absorb my grampa passing. Although it was expected, it is just so hard. I have never lost someone this close to me before and it really is a hard emotional time.
Road bans finally caught up with us too. I hate being so broke, especially when we are trying to plan things for the wedding. At least things are steady now, and I will probably be back to work in the near future..but then again who knows.
My siblings have been here since Friday, it was originally to Celebrate Dom's 3rd birthday. We still had a little thing out at my gramma's farm. I made cupcakes and we sang happy birthday. However I had all this party stuff bought so I am going to have to go hand out goodie bags!
Things couldn't get organized fast enough for my Grampa, so his funeral will be on Wednesday. I think tomorrow night will be the viewing. Which I really want to see him and say goodbye..even though "he" persay isn't there anymore.
I have been baking and cooking up a storm since Friday, my way of keeping my mind off of things. We painted my garage Saturday and Sunday. It looks SO great!! Thanks everyone! It was about time, since we bought the paint LAST summer to do it!
Saturday night we had a bonfire, once me and my siblings got back from the farm. There were soooo many people here. well not really. Me, Jared and my siblings, Bubba and Denise and Jeremy (Jared's brother) and 3 of his buddies. Then Nick and Trina Mayer (who now live in the gorgeous house behind us) came over with a liquor shaker and the whole nine yards, it was quite the gathering. Around 1 we all headed to the bar, where I found out people heard our "party". Little embarassing. My dad (who stayed at the bonfire for awhile too), came by the next morning and saying people over on Oxbow Crescent heard us..which isn't THAT far, but WHOOPS! haha.
The kids have been great all weekend. Ok well maybe a little crabby, but I've been an emotional mess, so considering that they've been great.
Paige is finally starting to amuse herself. Although still very much a mommy suck. Dominic has enjoyed the nice days outside where he can play with some of his new summer toys he got for his bday!
Dominic got RIDER gear..hahaha my brother bought him a hat, and complete outfit. For anyone that doesn't know...Jared is from Manitoba, therefore a hardcore Bluebombers fan...me a hardcore Riders fan. And this year we got season tickets to the RIDERS (an AWESOME christmas present from my dad).
Well I think that about raps up our last couple days in the Muffy household! Spending a lot of time out at the farm (my gramma's).
Anyways, thanks for all your kind thoughts and comments. Marcy thanks so much for the ecard and phone calls (even though I missed them). Marisa thank you so much for the baking and card. And again to everyone that is thinking of us, and have left me comments on facebook. You all mean so much to me and I thank you for thinking of us!
