We're HOME!

Welcome to 255 Copperfield Heights! Our new # is 403.764.4789 I will post more pics once we settle and get all our pics and art up.

We had to do our move in two parts as our possession day fell on the Family Day holiday and Blackfoot storage was closed. So sunday we had to move out of Blackfoot, park the truck, and move in monday. Really not that big of a deal, just meant we got to go drink beer twice LOL

Moving out of storage was easy as they have large trolley carts, so just pile it on and walk to the cart. We had 8 peeps including us and did it in ~2hours.

Taking possession felt wonderful. The house was left in like new condition, immaculate. They did such a fantastic job at cleaning. It feel so good to be home! Moving in was good, 6 people including us, this took less than 2 hours! Way to go friends!

Quinn was super excited when we brought him here and so far has adjusted really well. I'm happy to say we are 75% unpacked and I am exhausted! Not an easy task with a little one in toe! We sure are sleeping well! Even Quinn. No problems going to bed or getting to sleep.

Last night Lair came home from work feeling bagged. He's had laryngitis for over 4 weeks. This morning he woke up and didn't feel right so he went to the doctor and he had a really bad throat infection. He has the next 4 days off work, so hopefully the medication will take care of this for him. Poor guy.

Tomorrow night we are having a small birthday party as Lair turns 33 on sunday! (Hope he's feeling better!). Looking forward to entertaining and having peeps see the house. So nice to be back in calgary - we sure missed entertaining the masses when we were in BC.

My WoYoHo class is losing it's personal trainer. I've put this class on hold right now. If $$ permits, we're hoping to join the local gym, they have child minding too! I'm still ordering a hula hoop hoping to make it out to the occasional spring/summer hoop in the park. Life is too crazy right now with the move and such, I need to focus on the house then get a job! God a pray I find a kick ass part time job close to home and find good childcare!!! Once that's accomplished, we're free to just LIVE LIFE!



Good news/bad news for Dave Lymburner. Good news, the cancer has SHRUNK! Bad news, he has pneumonia and a blood clot on his left lung. So, everyone is praying for a hospital bed to open up so he can take care of these and continue the battle.


Our friend Tracey who is battling eye cancer is preparing for surgery (Feb 24). They'll be removing everything including the eye and everything behind to the brain as it's an invasive fast spreading cancer. (As mentioned in another post, she lost her other eye to cancer as an infant). She will never 'see' her newborn who will be along shortly... The doc says if they can get behind the tumor and cut it all out then her prognosis for a long full life is very good. If they cannot get behind the tumor then my prognosis is "very bad"... So she'll have an agonizing wait till post op... This weekend in Edmonton she is celebrating with family and friends, a final chance for her to 'see' everyone. I wish we could make it up there, but with Lair under the weather and his birthday - just can't do it.


We are ever so grateful for our health, family, friends and home... I love you all. Please pray and send energy to my friends.



That's all for now folks! We have a spare room with a futon in it should anyone wish to visit and stay awhile!
