Well I actually did it!!

I actually sucked up the big bucks and got Lasik surgery instead of new glasses.

What a piece of cake! I would recommend it to anyone.
We left thursday night and stayed in Langley(super 8 with a waterslide) quickly went for a swim when we arrived because the pool was closing and than we were so hungry that Chris went out at 10pm and got everyone Mcdonalds. The kids loved that.
The next morning we spent a few hours at The Greater Vancouver Zoo ( most of the animals were still sleeping when we arrived so I would suggesting not going first thing in the morning),

We deceided to venture into Vancouver with lots of time to spare before my appointment because Chris and I just don't get along in Vancouver, we always get lots for some reason. This time I googled everything and It went smoothly the whole time and we never got lost.
I love Google maps!!!!

We ended up staying at posh hotel just off Robison( with the kids) It was actually was one to the cheaper ones through Coal Harbour. It was beautiful. We walked around the sea wall for a bit and than I headed off to Coal Harbour. Kids are not recommend on coming to the appointments so Chris had to kept themselfs busy for a couple of hours. They actually arrived to pick me up just as I was finishing the procedure so they got to watch a couple of minutes of it on the TV.

The procedure was not painful at all just kind of wiered. It was blurry when I left the clinic( it didn't stop me from shopping on Robinson for a few hours) after a couple of hours it was getting better and by the next morning my eyes were just dry. Chris and the Kids bought me flowers for when I arrived back at the hotel and they ended up staying alive in the car cup holder all weekend.
Anyways to keep going , the next morning I had a quick check and everything was fine and than we were off to Victoria. The trip went great expect for the fact the kids kindof got to us and we were losing are patience because the kids are just spoiled and it is always about them. We made it through it and got to see way more of Victoria than what I expected. It is beautiful and we well return there on a camping trip so it won't be so expensive.

Anyways thank you to everyone in helping me make the big decision and I only wish I would of done it sooner.

My kids make me proud

Tradition in our house for Grandma's birthday,death day and mothers etc. Is to go to the dollar store and Kanaan, Mya and Myself pick a colour of ballon and we get them filled and take them to My mom's grave site. We talk a little bit about her, who she is, what we miss about her and I always try to explain where she is. Mya calls the grave site" Grandma's House" she really doesn't get it. Kanaan understands and misses her a lot and I try so hard for him not to forget about her. Kanaan always kneels by her stone asks me what it says and asks questions about God and takes a few moments to think. Well this time Mya decided to join him and I thought it was just the most precious thing and had to take pictures. I swear this was not a posed.

The kids make me so pround.

"We miss you Grandma" till we meet again.

Kids say the cutiest things!!!

I always remember reading my mom's magazines and loved reading the columns

"Kids say the cutest things"

Well the other day I was driving with the kids and was waiting in a long line up to turn and Mya asks me "why aren't we there yet?" I proceeded to tell her that there were cars in are way.
And her comment was ;

"Mom just say excuse me and and go"

Too funny and Innocent.
