Happy Halloween
Hi all,
As promised here are some Halloween pictures, we had a nice time at our friends home, (Trish & Jeff's), it was to bad we had to leave a little early, since i had to go to work in the morning. Work was a bit groggy, but it went fairly quickly, unfortunately here it has started to snow, and is pretty cold, -17 C with the wind chill....brrr. Though since noon, we have been throwing logs in the fireplace and keeping the apt. nice and toasty (except for the part where I have to go outside and chop up more wood!!!)
Anyhoo, here are some promised pics, Jeff LOVES halloween, and pretty much decorated thier home inside and out with spooky things, apparently they even got a mention on the radio as well.
"Zapp Branigan and a Witch"
Roanna did a lot of sewing for me, I just used a lot of safety pins....
Some of the guests, last year most of them came as the Scooby Gang!
The zombie is Jeff, apparently even the living dead need to unwind from time to time.
Anyhoo,
Hope everyone else has (or had) a great halloween.

Friday Update
Hello all,
Once agian it has been a while since I have updated. Work has been going on, and I am trying to get full time. The Calgary Fire Dept. is supposed to be hiring lots more in 2007, but so far they are not taking applications, from what I understand, at least until January. Oh-Well....
On the Baby front, Roanna is doing well, yesterday she went for her check up, and everything is going well. The due date has changed from 13th April, to 17th April, though personally I loved the first date.
I was also able to hear the heartbeat when the doctor used a hand held ultrasound, so that was really cool, I have been grinning most of the day.
Well, right now we are getting our halloween stuff ready for a halloween party tomorrow, the camera is charged up so expect photo's of people you do not know.
Anyhoo, every one take care

Thursday Post
Hi all,
been a few days since i have updated. Roanna is doing fine, the results from the ultrasound came back last week, and everything is fine. The only news is that they gave the age of the baby at 11 weeks 2 days, (this was from the ultrasound results that were supposed to be taken on the 12th week).
Other than that, I have returned to work for a week, and for some strange reason have picked up a cold this time, luckily it is on my days off, so I have just been laying in bed, kinda sucks working part time since I get no money for sick days...
Thanksgiving, (which was on Monday) went well, we went to Debbie & Curtis's home for an early dinner, lots of good food, and a HUGE turkey. Guess what we are eating for the rest of the week???
Anywho, really not much else going on right now, we have a quiet week this week, so hopefully I can make it to the value village (2nd hand store) to pick up some items for my halloween costume.
Take care everyone
