Maybe I should have some info about me and my family.. I was born in Quebec, Canada.. I am a french canadian. I married a nice scottish guy that had moved to Alberta in 1970 and followed him in English speaking country..And it did seam like a complete different country then, specialy that my english was not that great.. Sorry to say that all the words that I had learned in high school did not prepare me for putting a sentence together..But with the help of a few ladies here. I finally gathered my courage and did my best to make myself understood..Over the years I made a lot of people laugh... and still after 30 years I still manage to do it..There is always some words I can't quite pronounce right.. Oh well..At least we can laugh about it..
I have 4 wonderful children and 7 grandkids..And I loved them all..
My oldest is Brian , with his wife Ruth-Ann they take care of 3 sweet kids..Jackson 2 years old and the twins Lara and Liam that were born in December 2009.. Brian is in the Canadian Navy and is proud to work for his country..
My second one is Johnathan ( we call him JJ ) him and his wife Jennifer have also 3 cute kids.. Cayleigh , who is 5 years old, Ashleigh 3 and Connor that is 18 months old..JJ is working for Wright construction as a assistant superintendant..
next one is my lovely Christina..She has a son named Kael 3 years old .He has lovely eyes with really long eyelashes that everybody envy..Specially grandma..She is a Doula and Breasfeeding consultant and his working on her LPN degree..
Then finally for the baby of the family we have Jennifer... She is an animal lover..She has 2 dogs, and 4 horses.. She has a degree from Olds college as a VMR.. But now decided to go back to school to be a Vet. So she is working and doing some upgrading ..And will be following her dreams..

one of those day..

My day did not start too bad.. until I went outside...Chris was over to pick up the truck and trailer to bring it to Regina , where Andrew is working..and He saw a dog in the bushes.. We had heard some howling for the last few days.. and were thinking it was coyotes, or wild dogs from the reserve.. I sent JJ last night to check things out with the quad but he could not see anything..the reason why ? It was in an area he can't drive thru with the quad..but anyway this morning we saw him half way up the hill in the chokecherry bushes. So i went up in the slippery mud.. just to find Tiny ( Doug's Rottweiler) with his 30 foot chain all tangled up .. For the one that don't know who Doug is,, he is my husband's brother.. It took me 20 minutes to get him free..He raced back toward his house stretching my arm for an extra few inches... or at least it felt that way..So that is when i discovered that after i had spent so many hours putting snow fence to makes sure my cows would not sneak thru the barb wires fence and go to Doug's place, His dog made holes in it..So i was not to happy..Andrew ( my husband) works away from home ..He is in Regina doing an expansion on a Walmart till July.. So he is there for 2 weeks and comes home for one..A lot of the stuff outside I end up doing.. and I don't mind..but I do mind having to do things twice or more because of some idiot .. At 52 years old , I do not want to spend my life redoing things that I thought were done and should last for at least a couple of years..
