Day 88 - Sugar Bush Take Two

I got the opportunity to head out to Judith's sugar bush again today with the gang from work.  Always a great time! 

This morning a calf was born at a neighbouring farm and we got to see it up close and personal.

And a few pictures that I didn't get the first time around. :)

One of the original "Shanty's".  It is so cool.  Thought this was a neat pic as you can kind of see the new lines on the trees to the right. 

Old Meets New.

The fire in the Shanty that boils the sap!

The view.  Gorgeous!

Day 82 - My New Gig!

OK... time to embarrass myself for a moment here.

One of the girls at work had to do a readers theatre on a story she had read in the "and then it Happened" series (for more info... http://laura-take2.blogspot.com/2010/03/day-71-and-then-it-happened.html ).  I somehow got suckered into being the "old lady". 

Just to clarify... I think it was because I was a "lady" not necessarily "old".

So... thought I would have some fun with it and went ALL OUT!  I had many people in the building fooled as to who I was I think and we laughed about it all day long!!

Oh... and if anyone is interested in reading this hilarious story, "Another Good Deed" from book Seven, feel free to read away here http://www.boysbookshelf.com/another_good_deed.html

Day 27 - Who doesn't love brown sugar!?!?!

This picture actually has more significance than just a little joke with my co-workers. ;)  Nothing makes a long day better than brown sugar and cinnimon on toast.  It has to be made JUST right though!  Toast hot out of the toaster with butter melted and a few spoonfuls of brown sugar (yes, I said SPOONFULS!) on top.  Then of course, a little sprinkle of cinnimon on top and mmmmmm.....  all the problems of the day just disappear.

Day 15 - Twilight Fun

A couple of the girls at work and I were having fun taking pictures of a shiney red apple that was sitting there.  I just couldn't resist this picture! ;)

Day 14 - Canadian Skating Championship

I got to go to the Canadian Skating Championships, compulsory dance at the JLC tonight with work.  What an opportunity to see future Olympic Skaters!

I'm sorry that these are great quality, I wasn't allowed my Canon camera in the JLC so had to use my tiny Sony Cybershot 4.1 !!!  I was just happy to get some kind of picture to remember this by.

Unfortunately I don't remember all of their names.  Maybe some of you skate fans can tell me. ;)

These last 3 are Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir.  They are from the London area and were FANTASTIC!  They were definately favourites tonight and placed 1st place in this competition.  How cool is THAT!

Day 12 - What am I??

I did a fun game with the girls at work tonight.  I went around this afternoon and took pictures of things around the residence.  They had to run around and guess what they were.  So... even though you may not be able to know what some of the things are... I thought I would share my macro shots for the day.

LOL... this one I found humourous!  What am I??

Day 6 - Just hanging out...

A very busy day for us!  I had to get blood taken this morning and Haley and I had an eye appointment this afternoon... her VERY first!  She did awesome and neither of us need glasses at this point.  YAY!  She really enjoyed the 3D glasses and capturing the bugs!  LOL

It was an eventful night at work tonight.  This is what we found hanging from the ceiling.  It reallly didn't want to leave it's comfy place of sleep and it took a few tries to capture it. 

Although I really HATE the things... it WAS kinda cute. :)
