Pictures of what's around me

So here I am sitting in my blue chair waiting for Glee to finish recording ... iPhone in hand ... thinking what should I do for 45 minutes. So to kill time I'll show you what's around me! I know you don't really care, but I know you'll read on cause if you are anything like my wife you can't resist a chance to snoop! To which she'll reply "its observing, not snooping!" So here we go ...






This is a picture of my dog Zoey. I thinks she's a pretty neet.







I had kraft dinner got supper. This is the empty bowl. Yummy KD!







Eva likes her bouncy chair. And she also likes to suck her fingers. She's 4 months old today! Happy birthday Eva!







"what... Do I have something in my mouth?" Kathy up to her usual shananigins!







Is is time yet? ... Nope it's only 8:24.







Near ...







Far...







My family ... they're pretty swell

Well that pretty much all that is around me. Wow that killed like 10 minutes. I think I'll go and play some Monkey Kick off.

Until next time ...

p.s my high score is 5123. I dare you to try to beat it! Mwha! Ha! Ha!

Weekend Update

Hello blog-o-sphere! Hope everybody out there is doing well! So this weekend Kathy and I pulled a few firsts. First #1 ~ We went to Fargo, North Dakota for the weekend. We has never been there before. We went to Grand Forks last summer to do some shopping before Eva was born and also to get away for our 6th anniversary. But this time we decided to trek to the bigger center of Fargo.

Which leads me to first #2 ~ we have completed around 95% of our Christmas shopping before December 1st! We're the typed of people that leave it to the semi-last minute. Not to be confused with hte Last-Minute-Christmas-Eve shopper. We would prolly go around the 15th ish and do all our shopping. But this year cause we aren't going anywhere for Christmas and because nobody is coming here we needed to get things done early so we can mail it. Fargo was fun. The mall had some good stores and we were able to take in some excelent food deals. Like at Chilis, where we got an appetizer, two plates of ribs, a killer chocolate dessert and drinks for $25! Why can't the restruants here offer such deals! And speeking of deals Target is like the best store to get stuff. It's like Zellers only not sucky! I only wish I had more money to spend on stuff.

Also on the way to Fargo we saw a town that made me want to change my name. The towns name is "Manville Gilby". I think that totally sounds like an anchor man for the news ... "For CTV news reporting from the crazy happenings I'm Manville Gilby. Goodnight!" Or maybe since Kathy won't actually let me change my name to Manville Gilby I could write a book and that could be my pen name. So if you ever see a book by Manvill Gilby you'll know it's me and than you can say you know the author of a New York Times bestseller and I'll send you a signed copy that you could sell on Ebay!

Anyways that leaves me with the 3rd and final first ... which isn't as exciting as Manville Gilby but a first nonetheless ~ The Peters family went on their first family vacation as a trio! Eva joined our adventures in the US of A! She traveled soooo well and she also shopped well. I pushed her around in her stroller all day and she had a great time playing with her rings or napping or getting oggled over by random people who were in awe of her cuteness. This one crazy lady tonight at Applebys was like "she's so adorable. If she was crying I'd offer to hold her while you eat." I'm thinking NO WAY MAN! Who just offers to hold a complete strangers baby in the middle if a restruant? Psycho!

So now you're in the loop. Untill next time. I'm Manville Gilby

100 Miles

So I've joined the SRSS 100 mile club. The goal is to run 100 miles in 100 days. It's totally an achievable goal, the only issue is whether or not I'm motivated enough to run a mile every day. Today on my way home I drove around the Prov campus and planed a one mile route, and after getting everything together I went and ran the mile. It only took me 15 minutes ... So that's not too bad. It made me knees hurt though. Last spring I ran on the tredmill nearly every day but running outside is way different. I'm not sure what I'll do when it gets really cold.

In other news ... I officially got time off to go to the Olympics!! I'm looking forward to it! The olympic flame is coming to Steinbach in January I would like go see it just to complete the experience.

Anyways ... Like I said before now that I can update my blog from my phone I'll be able to update on my 100 mile progress!

Until next time!

Harry Potter was Awesome!




Hey everybody!

So yesterday I had the opportunity to go see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince! How was I able to do this since the movie doesn't come out until tomorrow you ask? Well ... I was listening to the radio on Saturday and I heard that they were going to give away a pass to an advanced screening. So at the cue to call I called and they answered and said cause I waited on the line for so long they would give me tickets even though I wasn't the first to call!

So yesterday Kathy and I went into the city to pick up the tickets. We got them at around 1:30pm and the movie didn't start until 7 so we had some time to kill. We decided to go to the Canadian Mint cause it was something that we have wanted to do for a while. It was a pretty good tour. I got to lift a gold bar worth about $500,000. It's the most money that I have ever held in my life!!

So after that we went for supper and they we were off to the theater. It was a good thing that we arrived an hour and a half early cause the theater was about 1/4 full and about 30 min later it was over half full. We got great seats.

The movie it self was awesome! I won't tell you anything about it cause that would be lame. You'll just have to go see it your self. It met my expectations. I can't wait until 19 November 2010 for part 1 of Deathly Hallows, and 15 July 2011 for part 2!

Here is a slide show of some pics
