Last night we headed into town to Samanthas house for a fun evening of games, chat and drinks :) Good food and good company. I couldn't believe how fast the night went and was stunned when Lloyd said it was midnight! We ended up leaving around 1:30am and got home at 2am. I drove home so Lloyd could drink. Probably a good thing as the winner of each game could pick someone on the losing team to have a shooter - and of course they couldn't pick me lol! PHEW!!!!!
We played racing Grannies (two wind up little old ladies with walking frames that we raced across the coffee table - it was hilarious and now I want some lol) and then we played Trivial Pursuits 80's edition....then we headed downstairs to play bowling on the Wii...then did fitness tests on the wii (Lloyd was 52 I think) and then we played Taboo which I was REALLY good at but I kept thinking of rude things to say to get people to guess the word!!
It was such a fun night and we are doing it again for Samanthas birthday in a few weeks - Lori and Chris are hosting at their house - so I think maybe we will host in March....
And best of all, Samantha is going to look at the house next door to ours - and they are really keen :) OMG that would be the BEST :)
Needless to say, I was so sleepy this morning - slept until 10am and finally crawled out of bed at 11am. Lloyd and I headed into town to collect Laurie from his friends after he slept over for two days....we also ran into Canadian Tire to get some storage boxes for the Christmas decorations...and into Sobeys to get brussel sprouts, parsnips etc etc for New Years dinner...
Came home and Lloyd lit a fire outside and I went out snowshoeing while he chopped wood etc....then we sat by the fire for a while - then I went snowshoeing again before we came indoors....
Lloyd removed the window seat from our bedroom this afternoon too....and has put it in the girls window instead.....what a difference it makes - I'm thinking of getting a table to go in our window so I can leave my sewing machine out all the time and can sew in the window....we'll see...I kind f like the space there too.....hmmmmm
So thats all our news from the last day or so.....hope you are all having a good weekend.....the holidays have gone so fast and Lloyd only has two days left at home now before he goes back to work. It's been so nice having him home for so long....I guess April will be the next time he has longer than three days off - when we go to Toronto.
