idiot

I am an idiot! it is official! i somehow managed to lock the car keys in the car...not my keys or my car though....my mom's keys in her car. She has the other set but is not around anywhere near me....crap. So.......that leads me to the posting.....what else would one do on a rainy day with no car keys? blog of course! It was either that or clean the messy house.

Here has been a bit hectic lately. Lacrosse season is in full swing and if you have kids that play you know that they squeeze every ounce of free time out of you in a short period of time.
here are some pics of Matthew at a tournment












On top of that Taryn has been in dance competition......they got gold in all 3 dances and even made top 5 over all in their division(a big deal as they beat a whole lot of older kids) and got to perform in the Power Championships. They didn't win but we didn't expect them too....they were competing against a group of hip hoppers(18yrs old) who basically could of been on "Americas best dance crew". Funny how they are div 1(they are divided into divisions based on years of "formal" training and hours of dance per week)... Regardless the girls beat out 114 other groups to make it and were fabulous next to all the BIG kids. I have posted some pics of Taryn and her friends in Carwash and ballet and the one with the blue dress is her bestest friend who competes against her. They are from the last comp but i haven't got the others loaded yet...when i do i will load some.









PLus we had activity day (sports day for all you oldies)








and school and work and field hockey and Matthew's birthday.......let's not forget Taryn has her ballet exam on Wednesday and on Thursday both kids qualified for the district track meet....Matthew in the 800m and medely relay and Taryn in high jump, long jump, 4x200 and the medely.

Coming up....tap exam, year end recital, playdowns for provincials and then july we are in kelowna for a dance comp and if matthew's team makes it...Prince George for provincials......fun times.

For Matthew's bday we are taking the easy way out....pizza then taking them to a Adanacs game. we are making it a combo with Alex who also has his bday...fun times.....14 kids though so it shouldn't be so bad. I can not believe he will be turning 11....going to middle school next year and almost taller than me(not much of a feat but still...)

ok...so now i have not much else to say...i PROMISE to be more diligent in my postings to keep you all thoroughly entertained.
....almost forgot....one of my scrap layouts(old) got picked up to be in Canadian Scrapbooker in the fall.....
