Thanks for the Support

For some stange reason I decided to run for town council out here in Rouleau. There are twelve people campaining for six positions. I will find out on Wed if I made it or not. I will post my results once I know. Jay put a sign in the yard for the competition, not sure what he was thinking, thanks for the support, Jay lol. Cody was nice and made a sign for me. I put a sign on the house but I was not sure how many would see it so I put some signs on the side of my van too. I just wanted to let everyone know that I didn't get enough votes to make it onto town council. I wasn't at the bottom of the list, I beat out a couple of people so that was good. I am not too upset that I didn't win. I can try again in a few years lol.

Gearing up for hockey

Jay helped the boys try on all of their hockey gear last night. The boys were so excited, it made their night. Zane had a hard time moving around but I am sure he will get better after he has it on a few more times. Hockey starts in the first part of Novemeber.

oktoberfest

the school had oktoberfest the friday before thanksgiving. the kids had to dress up, and they served perogies and sausage at lunch. These are my homemade costumes.

Snake!

Jay found a snake outside of his work shop a and thought the boys might like to see it, so i went to go and pick it up. The boys wanted to keep it so we put it in an fish tank. The snake turned out to be good at escaping. Yesterday the snake got out of the tank and was loose in the house for 4 hours. After we found him we desided that he would be happier outside and we let him go.

Welcome back BBQ at school

The school had an open house and BBQ. They also had a clown that made ballon animals, face painting, bingo and fun games going on in the gym.
