This morning Dan and I got up early and drove into town to Smittys - a diner style retsaurant......we met my friend Carole-Anne there and her daughter Bobbi! Bobbi and Dan have chatted via Email etc for a few years now but had never met until today! It was great to see CA again and to finally meet Bobbi - who is soooo nice! So pretty (lovely hair!!!) and she scrapbooks too so we chatted about that a lot and Dan said he felt we were talking in a whole new language!
I had 7 grain pancakes with sugar free syrup and it was as divine as usual!! And Smittys coffee is always good! Smittys was sooo busy - luckily CA and Bobbi got there early as we didn't have to wait for a table!
We stayed and chatted and were there a couple of hours and then we all headed home...well actually I think CA and Bobbi headed to the scrapbook store, but Bobbi just started selling CTMH products and I wnat to buy some of those so I didn't bother going to the store - instead I drove Danny home via the range roads for a change of scene....
Tonight we are going to Elk Island Park at dusk....
Yesterday Lloyd and Dan went out on the quad bikes....Before he went on, Dan didn't think it would be his kind of thing..thought it was dangerous and not fun - the whole time he was on it though he was grinning like crazy and he said it was 'awesome' and such a great experience...they went all through the woods and the huge puddles/ ponds and they saw a porcupine!!! He loved it and says he sees why we don't normally bother with helmets!!
Luckily Bobbi loves quads too :) she said she'd like to come out and have a ride too which will be good - she may come to Jasper with us in a couple of weeks too....
Last night I taught Daniel how to make honey mustard chicken, asparagus and new potatoes......and no he didn't know how to cook new potatoes lol! But now he does - and he tried asparagus for the first time.....it went well and everybody cleared their plates......
After dinner and after Chris had been picked up from his party, we all sat down to watch The Pursuit of Happyness' which was a great movie! Although it did end kind of suddenly!
Oh and Dan had his first Iced Capp today - a medium butter caramel Iced Capp...he loved it lol! I swear he is going to gain so much weight while he is here lol.....
Ok off to add pics of Dan on the quad!
