Kaylani needs...

Ok, so my SIL put her name with "needs" after it in a search engine and then posted the first 10 things that came up. I thought it would be fun, so I tried it. I should have know better! I knew from a different search (many months ago) that there is a porn star named Kaylani Lei in Asia. So, baring that in mind I will share the first 2 items after my search, and leave the rest alone. My only excuse for forgetting about Kaylani Lei is that it is late and I'm ready for bed!

1. It is very important to Kaylanis happiness to talk, share ideas, go places together and learn new things together. (yup.)

2. Kaylani planning to undergo breast augmentation surgery. (I hadn't thought about it...what do you think?)

3-10. not worth mentioning!!!

Good night!

pictures

So, we haven't been home more than 30 hours, but Perry is back at the airport headed to Vancouver for the weekend. Since he has the camera, I can't share any more pictures with you yet from our trip. Monday for sure!

Check out this video of Perry, Ryan and Noah with the dophins.

Book Club

I love my book club ladies. To quote one of them...

"tattoo's, shoes, naked yoga, miss used nighties, food, movies, showgirls, cats, kids, 2 times a day, chocolate......book club !!!!!!"

These were a few of our topics last night. I love these ladies. We chat about anything knowing we won't be ridiculed or frowned at. I just walk into the room for the evening and feel my worries go to the back of my head for a couple of hours and prepare myself to laugh and enjoy. We are all so varied and have such different struggles and challenges and backgrounds that the conversation is never lacking. It really does boost me up to face another month! I may come from a large family, but I love these 7 other sisters of mine!

day 6

When I said it rained before we got here, I guess that was a bit of an understatement. It poured, nonstop, for 10 days before we got here. There were people crying at the check out desk because they were leaving and hadn't seen the sun once. That would be sooo disappointing. I would probably cry, too.



Paradise Island was fun! I think our favorite part was swimming in the ocean off the yacht with the floating bar. I want one of those for our little pool. It would be so fun! It was pretty windy on Paradise Island, but we still had fun. There was a couple from drayton Valley on the same trip that we had fun with.

We went to the Tex - Mex restaurant last night and it was our favorite by far! (So far - we go to the gourmet one tonight) We were eating no less than 15 minutes after we got there, the service was great and the food was yummy! When you come here you'll have to go!

We met a couple from New York that are on the same floor in the same building we are in. very nice people. They have 2 boys that are 13 and 16. They are here with a group that includes some teenage girls. The girls parents had to deal with drinking and going off the resort grounds at 2 am last night...Let me tell you I am happy with my boys!

I think I miss the boys more this trip just because they have been here before and I know how much they loved it. Ryan and Noah would have been all over Paradise Island! and the restaurants, and ping pong and golf.....I can't wait to bring them again!

Have a wonderful day and I'll see you in 2 days!

Day 2

Well, I can't complain about the weather. When we landed on Wednesday I asked the cab driver how the weather had been. He said we were lucky - it had just stopped raining. The ground had puddles everywhere and it was really wet. It didn't rain that night, and it was beautiful yesterday and today. All everyone talked about yesterday was the rain - I guess it really poured. I'm not really sad I missed it! Perry just said he saw two clouds today, and 1 looked like a fluffy bunny! LOL! It is suppose to be 28 tomorrow again...I'll take it!
Last night at the casino was fun - we lost $10 in about that many minutes and then Perry cut me off. He did better than I did though. I should have let him finish off all the tokens! I never knew there were so many decisions to make with slot machines - I thought you just put in the quarter and pressed the button! Oh well, better not to get to comfortable in there!
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day and we are going to Paradise Island for snorkelling and a Yacht ride. Fitting, don't you think?

~Thanks for stopping by!
Ola!

(I missed Ryan and Noah a bit today - they had so much fun last time we were here! I miss Cam and Kai, too, but they were more work! LOL! When I got towels today the pool guy said "Oh, I know you" I told him we had been here over New Years with our 4 boys, and he said "Oh yes! Ping Pong! I beat him every time!" Noah will be happy to know he was remembered and quick to say he won lots, too!)

12 hours

That is how long I slept last night. Do you remember the last time you slept that long, all at once? I don't! Delicious! We landed just after 5, checked in, had dinner, and laid down for a nap. 12 hours later and it was time to get up!!! I love holidays!!! Good thing, too, because tonight we go in a limo to a "Las Vegas style show". Should be fun...

In case you were wondering...

25 things about me.

1. My favorite treat is peanut m & m's with a diet coke.
2. I have been skydiving, would love to go again, but hubby won't let me.
3. I have been scuba diving. I will do that again, but have no desire to be certified to do so.
4. I have the best friends ever.
5. I don't mind cooking, but I hate cleaning up the mess.
6. I sometimes dream about putting Kai in dresses just so I can experience how fun it would be to have a girl. Hubby won't let me.
7. I LOVE watching my boys play hockey and don't mind all the travelling involved. It gives me a chance to chat with whoever is riding shotgun.
8.My laundry is usually always done...or close to it. (The air hockey table is cleared off, yah!)
9. My boys make me laugh at least daily.
10. I am sad I missed my friend's wedding in Mexico.
11. I am currently on a weight loss program and have 8 lbs to go before I'm the same size I was in High School. I'll take it!
12. I love shopping, but hate trying on clothes. (My hair goes beserk and staticy) I am the queen of returns. I just found a new store I LOVE...anyone up for a trip to Southgate?
13. I just got my haircut and don't like it as much as what I had before. Oh well, it'll grow.
14. I feel like a fake when I craft because I case things so much.
15. I wish I had more motivation to clean the garage. It really is a disaster. I think I'll just get a big garbage truck come and park in front of the garage for a day this summer and solve the problem.
16. I love my parents.
17. My marriage would be in jeopardy without cell phones. We do 99% of our communicating on them!
18. Kai hasn't been seen for the last 20 minutes...could mean trouble...
19. I hate the sounds the DS and computer make when the boys are playing games...it drives me crazy!
20. I am totally looking forward to this summer when I can take the boys camping in our new to us motorhome!
21. I just got a new shirt that I love! check out www.lillap.com and look up "oragami" Mine is the purple one.
22. I have black hockey skates but they have pink laces and pink skate guards.
23. I teach an aquafit class at the Y and the ladies are so nice to me! One of them treated me to an OJ after our last class!
24. I love my Grandma George.
25. I plan to take a trip a year...at least...until I die. This does not include retiring to Arizona.
