Jeff's Big Whoop

This year Jeff's big whoop actually was a big whoop. Last month he turned forty and officially became an adult. We had a fun party with super food made by me (why be modest?)

Ice Fishing

I realize I'm back-tracking, but as I see pictures I like I'll put them up. In February I took the kids up to my parents' house in Barrie Ontario. While we were there I went to my brother's ice-fishing hut with Malcolm, my dad and Michael (said brother). I wasn't so sure about walking a kilometre out onto the ice; I told Michael I'd walk behind him and if he went through, he was on his own. The ice, however, was super thick and we survived. It was a freezing day but the ice hut was surprisingly cozy! I don't know if I could spend large quantities of time in it, but it was definitely a new experience.

Current Hobbies

Jeff posted a photo of my new bathroom taps on the family blog and entitled it "My Lady's Got Plumber's Crack." No matter how many times I asked him to change it, he no did do. For the record, I don't have plumber's crack. I do, however like to do small plumbing jobs, partly from the job satisfaction, and partly because my frugal heart loves to save money. So I can spend it on more important things, of course.
