Hello Family and Friends, we are officially in our new home!!! We finally got everything moved and cleaned up from Shannon's and are no longer the basement dwellers of 4169 Verte Place, but the Home Owners of 259 Derby Place. Whoo Hoo!!! Very Exciting!!!

Of course it has not taken long for my nester wife too make this place feeling alot like home, even when she has one bum hand. So once we find our camera we will make sure to get some pictures posted for ya all to see.

We also got our new fancy washer and dryer yesterday, which was almost as exciting as getting a house. Anyway we are doing great, maybe a bit tired, but great none the less. Thanks for all your prayers and would appreciate more as we have a few new bills and expenses to worry about that seem to come along with purchasing a new house.

Love you all tons

Candy's been cut

Well Candy had her wrist cut today. So far she has been a great patient. Not too many complaints as of yet. We will see how the next few days go.

Seriously though, she is doing well, except for the extreme pain she is in. She will probably be out of commission for about a week or two and off work for at least a month according to the doctor. Lucky me gets to pick up the slack, which is alot. I am now the cook, cleaner, packer, bra undoer, butt wiper(kidding), and much much more.

We have also put an add in the paper for the suite in our new house. Already I have shown the house 4 times and have another showing tomorrow. Its been fairly crazy around here the last few days. I am so lucky to have a wife that likes to get stuff packed up early. She has pretty much everything done except the eccentials. I think she knows I don't like to pack and that I am a bit of a procrastinator. Must have something to do with the 9 and a half years of marriage or something.

Jeff and Heidi leave on the 16th, so we will start to move stuff in as soon as they are goon. Get a jump on things so we don't have to do it all in one day.

We are very excited to be moving into our own place after almost ten years of marriage. How Exciting!!!!!!! GOD IS GOOD!!!!!!!!

Love and miss you all tons

A day in the life of Patrick and Candy

Goodmorning Family and Friends!!!!I was sitting on the couch this morning with Eddie and drinking my tea when I thought,"Its not fair that Elizabeth and Leah get to put all these cute pictures of their goings on during the day." So with my brilliant mind I said to Candy,"Hey Candy, why don't we take some pictures of our day to put on our blog." She just looked at me with a stupid look on her face, so I proceeded in my own humour that she obvious didn't get.

Any hooo!!!! Here are some pictures of the things we were up too today. Enjoy!!!!

Our Christmas Present to Us!!!!

Well family and friends, we have some very exciting news. As some of you might know, Jeff and Heidi McNairn are moving to Kelowna because Jeff got a pastoring job there. So they needed to sell their house.

Candy and I have always like their house and thought, "Hey, we should buy it!!" So we did!!!



You are now(or at some point) looking at the pround new owners or soon to be owners of 259 Derby Place. We are so excited for this to finally be possible. And all the praise and thanks goes to the big Guy up stairs. God is Great!!!

We will be taking possesion January 31, 2007 @ 12:00 pm. So if anyone wants to come help us move you are more than welcome. Candy will be out of commission at that time because she is getting surgery on her right wrist on the 15th, which is also great news. The house has 3 bedrooms and 2 bath, kitchen etc. upstairs and a spair room downstairs with an office and laundry. And it also has a 1 bedroom suit. It is just perfect for us and sometime in the, lord willing, near future or family.

Did I say God is Great yet!!!

Wel, thats it. Hope you are all doing great and enjoying shopping for the big day. We are ooking forward the fun times we will have in the next few days, but we will also be missing my little sis and crew a ton.

Love you all, BLESSINGS from your Bro,


Patrick

PS. I will get some pictures of it up as soon as I get them from Jeff.

Happening's in the Animal House

Well, not much has been happening around here. Our two little ones aren't as exciting as my sisters little ones, that I adore by the way. I had a great 30th Birthday party with friends and family. It was great to have Elizabeth and the family here to celebrate.

Jack absolutely loved the snow. He would go outside and play for hours and not want to come inside. He stayed out so long his feet froze and started to bleed. Crazy dog!!! Candy would have to tempt him with a treat to come inside. Eddie was a different story. He chose to watch Jack from inside.

Candy is now back to work part time because her claim for short term disability was turned down(dorks!!!). But she is happy to be back doing something again. She was going a little squirrely being cuped up at home. I am enjoying being full time now. It is nice to see and get to know the patients each day. They all miss me when I am not there which is flattering.

Well, I think that is all I can think of to tell you. We will try and take some pictures to show you. But we always seem to forget.

Love you all tons,
Patrick and Candy

PS. Bucky the rat is no longer. Somehow he got caught in a thing called a Rat Trap. You might remember it from the game we used to play as kids at grandma's
