Well this little bit of fun is courtesy of Wendy of Wendsters Blog, she is so fun people.
1) George Clooney (Brad Pitt ... Nicole Kidman ... you pick one) tells YOUR spouse he will pay ONE MILLION DOLLARS to spend one night with you. The evening's activities have not been specified. Would your spouse agree to it knowing that you will NEVER get to tell him what you did that evening?
As much as the 1 million would come in handy I'm pretty sure my hubby would say no.
2) Same question, but this time it’s a car salesman from Cincinnati named George Clooney
Still a no.
3) If you could have the house of your dreams (no "reality" limitations), where SPECIFICALLY would it be and what features would it have? Details please...
The house of my dreams would be big enough that I could have my Mom, my sister and her family come and live in it with all of us having our own privacy. I would like a kick ass master bedroom suite: walk-in closet, fireplace, jacuzzi tub and a big king size bed. My girls would have the rooms of their dreams. I would love a nice big yard with enough room for a vegetable garden. Hmmmm my dream house would be something I own (I hate renting).
4) If a kid fairy could wave a magic wand over your children (yes, I know they are already perfect) and remove ONE character trait or habit, which one would you have removed?
Kamryn and Jillian: thumb sucking (bad bad habit they both have)
Morgyn: the teenage eye rolling, 'nuff said
5) Someone’s buying you ANY pet you want. It is guaranteed to love you and be house broken / tame. What kind do you want? I really love love my kitty Piper. But I wuld get a monkey for my BIL- he wants one.
6) Many people feel they lack talent. What talent do you think you lack that you wish you had in spades? I feel I lack the talent of walking into a room and not feeling comfortable. I can be an intorvert and it's so hard to get past that.
7) Would you spend a whole weekend in a "family values" clothing optional resort? They'll give you a day to “find your feet”, but after that they'll be expecting you to join them in their clothing free activities. (dining, square dancing, swimming, badminton ... and yoga). I'd have to pass.
8 ) If after we die, we were to all become naturally occurring phenomenas, which naturally occurring phenomena would YOU hope to become? ...
No contest. Aurora borealis (i'm with Wendy on this one, the Northern Lights can be so stinking amazing)

Are We In The Clear??
Is spring finally here?? Oh how I'm hoping so!! The snow is gone, woohoo! This past weekend was beautiful, and it helped Project Snow Melt quite nicely. The weather people were calling for rain this afternoon but it's still quite nice out!
We're crossing fingers that things work out as soccer season has started and Kamryn is so excited. She is such a sporty girl and I'm still trying to figure out where that came from?? Not me, that's for sure.
Summer seems so much closer than before and we've been planning our trek back to Winnipeg. The girls are already excited. Kamryn has all kinds of plans of what she'd like to do. Morgyn will spend part of the time with her Dad/Step-Mom and 3 other sisters. My Mom and nephews are going to drive back to Edmonton with is for a couple of weeks. Bruce is excited as he hasn't seen my nephews in 2 years. It sucks when your hubby can't travel with you and doesn't get to come on vacation.
But you know what, next year he does! Yippeeeee.
Bruce switched jobs and started working in the city almost 2 months ago. This lead to him being home every night, a big change from being gone 6 mights out of 7 on the road. Now he is dispatching and not driving at all, which is a big change for him. He drove semi-trucks for 23 years. But being home every night has been good, we're not killing each other yet (he he he we're both really to passive for that anyways).
Anyways off to pick Kamryn uo from school and enjoy the sun!

Spring Has Sprung
Yup these pictures are no joke, they were taken this past weekend. While spring has sprung all over it seems that we had a cruel joke played on us. I'm so over snow, my yard looks like it did back in January but it's April. I guess I know why I hadn't put away the snow pants/jackets/mitts/scarf etc, so I either jinxed myself or I had a foretelling that it was to come LOL.
It's warming up which is good. Kamryn was suppose to have her 1st soccer practice on Sunday, I'm thinking it's not going to happen. Unless they trade in their cleats for snowshoes.
SO here's hoping this will be the last blast of winter. As I said, I'm tired of snow!

Wrong Wrong Wrong
Tonight American Idol was all wrong, but of course that is jmo. But I really do believe the voters got it oh so wrong tonight. I mean Carly could not have looked more shocked if she had tried, she truly looked as if she believed she was going home. However my heart belonged to this guy, sigh.
It started back when they were still eliminating them from 100, and Michael sang Bohemian Rhapsody. He didn't even sing that much of the song, they don't really at that point. But what he did sing had me hooked from then and there on.
I use to like David Archuleta, but the last little while he just hasn't been impressing me. I guess because I heart Michael (yes I'm obsessed LOL. Now what is a girl suppose to do?? I guess hope that someone out there calls him up and says come one Michael we have a deal for you! I would be the 1st in line to buy his record.
It seems as though spring just might be here to stay, I say this with baited breath after the snow we had last weekend. It had to be a good 5cm at least. But this weekend however they are forecasting temperature in the 20's (or 68F). Now how beautiful is that!!!!
Of course the downfall is I have to work. Which I have been doing for the last 6 weeks but just on weekends, and likely only till the beginning of May. We have a Full House Lottery on here right now and I'm working in these fan-freakin-tastic houses selling tickets to some lucky people, 3 of which are going to walk away with million dollar prizes for $100. It's insane. But they support 2 of the hospitals in the city which will see them both earning approximately $3 million a piece. Can't go wrong there. The houses well all I can say is WOW. They each have a special feature 1. a 2 storey library 2. an indoor lap pool and 3. a golf simulator. I wish I could figure out how to post the link but I still suck at that. But seriously google Full House Lottery 2008 and take a peak, it's worth a few minutes of your time.
But I'm going to head out and mourn the loss of my A.I. favorite. Have I mentioned I'm crushed?? ;-)

Is It Just Me?
Or was it weird that the Leprechaun and the Easter Bunny came to our houses in the same week?? I can't recall that occurring before, and since it's not suppose to happen for approximately another 200 years (I think it was??) I'll take it.
Kamryn loves when the Leprechaun comes to visit, she gets a kick out of the naughty stuff he does, thankfully Morgyn reminded me of this before we went to bed. Here are some of his antics.
Luckily the Easter Bunny was not as mischievous. Our cat Piper got great joy in batting around the jelly beans from the trail Mr. E.B. leaves.
Spring Break is creeping up fast and I'm not fighting it. Two more sleeps, woohoo. We don't have a whole lot planned, the girls received an xbox 360 yesterday and I'm guessing they are excited to get some Guitar Hero and Dance Revolution down pat. Nothing like trying to follow a bunch of arrows to make a grown woman feel like a moron LOL.

Where does it go??
Time that is? It seems as if time flies even faster these days, why is that??
My Jillian is feeling better, phew. Almost 2 weeks she was down, and then of course she shared with me. Yay! I love when my kids share....NOT. Well in the case of germs that is.
Explain to me how the one who doesn't go to school ends up sick? How the ones who go to school don't? In my neurotic-ness I always think ok she got sick because we went to the mall and she touched something, some lingering germ? Crazy I know, but hey when she had the flu in December that no one else got we had just been at the mall. Coincidence??
It's funny when the snow melts and we start to fall out of our winter clothes the 1st thing I hear is OMG Jillian has gotten so big. A Mom at school the other day saw her walking and was like "Is that the sled baby?" Yup I said. LOL.
But Jillian has grown, how I know this is when I called the pre-school down the street to see if they had any spots open this fall. GASP, yep I said pre-school!! My baby can go this fall, even if it's just 2 days a week. She needs it. The interaction with other kids, time away from Mommy. This came very apparent after she was sick, which then of course she stuck to me like glue. I started a weekend job for the next 2 months and that 1st day she was miserable. Granted she still wasn't feeling 100% but it wasn't pretty, she did ok this past weekend though.
Spring is definitely making an appearance, the snow is melting. Quite fast too. We have been well above 0 for a week or so. Yay. I also found tulips starting to pop up in my flower beds. I almost fell over in shock, he he he.
