Once again, my apologies for the lack of writing.
So the long weekend was fun. After a week of bachelorhood and late nights at work it was really great to relax. I got a ride home with my uncle the nabob. It is much more enjoyable to have someone to talk to on the drive, rather than staring blankly at the road. Mostly we just relaxed outside while the kids played in the sprinkler to beat the sudden heat. We visited my brother one evening and Evie got to play with a certain cousin who steals her toys. ;) It was cute. Evie and I spent an afternoon with my parents and she didn't even really cry. Yay! It's good to see her warming up.
So in other exciting news, I was mentioned on a podcast again! The may podcast from Zunior.com to be precise. He didn't say my full name, just my first, but I have the emails to prove that it was me he was talking about! At a podcast mention rate of once per year, I may yet be a pod-star. Anyway, Zunior.com is an online music store. They sell most albums for only 8.88 and they are in mp3 or flac format (lossless so higher quality) which means no DRM! Yaaay! They have mostly Canadian Indie music which is pretty fantastic nowadays. Check 'em out. You could start with Feist or maybe Wintersleep, but there's much more. It's a good way to fill up that 160 GB ipod...
I'll add some new Evie pics soon.

What do you write
It seems I have fallen off the updating bandwagon. Last week Damon and Sarah stayed with us the evening before her flight back to PEI. It was nice to see them briefly. Hard to believe the wedding is less than 3 months away. We have our plane tickets booked finally. I did some playing with Google Maps and found it very useful for plotting out our destinations.
We were gonna head back to Duchess for the weekend, but most everyone in Kristin's family were sick and we wanted to avoid that. Hope your bachelor party went well Damon!
We ended up taking Evie to the Zoo. That was a fun time. Evie did pretty well, even if she was more interested in people-watching than animal watching. There's a brand new elephant building that for some reason has a pool with rays swimming in it. The highlight for Kris was me spilling water all over her. So we got ice cream.Also that morning we went to the CBC/Calgary Reads Used Book sale. It was pretty great. We got a large pile of books for Evie and some books for ourselves. I remember as a child Mom coming home with piles of books from a garage sale. I hope Evie loves to read too.
