When the girls upgraded their phones a few months ago, I thought about upgrading too since my contract has been up for awhile and my battery really isn't keeping a charge. However, the price they paid then wasn't really in the budget for me and Conrad to upgrade our phones. This week's Black Friday advertisements in my email inbox proclaimed a smokin' deal for the iPhone 6. I sent Conrad to check it out and this great deal was price matched minus the "trade-in" allowance which they did not include....until the system went and resulted in an extra long wait and the salesman offered Conrad an additional credit of $30 per phone on our next bill. In the end, our phones ended up being $39 each instead of the $169 (that was a pretty good deal at that time) a few months ago. Not quite as smokin' as the $29 deal advertised but still pretty sweet...

Kezia took the van to school today and brought these gifts home to her sick Mom...a 2L of gingerale and a macaroon from Jenna Rae Cakes. She rocks.

While my friend Janice and I were taking a day trip to the States, Kezia was sent with a list to an art pop-up sale. Kezia texted me this picture of Kal Barteski scripting a birthday present for my friend Janice's sister. Kezia was also able to get the middle print in the back done for my friend Roberta and a mini print of our family name with "est. 1996" under it. I just love Kal's work and I'm happy to add to my collection and help my friends begin theirs.

Yesterday, 24 years ago, Conrad asked me out. Today we are the parents of 1 adult child and two high school students. Time flies...

When you're feeling a little bit overwhelmed with your job during this report card season it's such a treat to be blessed with not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4! gifts of love this morning from my Grade 1 friends. One stencil drawing, one Remembrance day colouring page, a perler bead heart and a leaf (that was covered in frost). I love Grade 1.

The volleyball season may be over for Kaden, but he was asked to do some refereeing for the Middle School team today where I teach after school.... Not a bad way to make a bit of cash!

That time Kezia and her friend took the van to go thrifting and then came back to school to pick me up from work.

I don't often pop by to see Conrad at work anymore but today between dropping off Kaden at hockey and picking Kezia up for soccer we spent some time together at his work. It's hard to remember all the hours I spent there with the kids when we only had one vehicle and he was stuck with a customer. That season seems so long ago...

I bet these students didn't even know it was my half birthday when they brought me these gifts today! The cinnamon bun was delicious from a current student and the cherry coke was a gift from a former student's family.
