I am back at home now and slowly starting to back into the normal groove of things around here. Well my new little niece Kitten had a fun baby shower while I was in Regina, SK. We smelled and tasted baby food, wracked our brains with memory and guessing games and played gift bingo. My sister Kim made the diaper banner and a really cute diaper cake. Kitten got more gifts than I have ever seen at any type of shower. They just kept coming and coming. Grandma and Mom (or should I say Grandma and Great Grandma?) made strawberry shortcake, Aunts Y and G (great Aunts???) provided fruit kabobs and fruit dips that were so yummy, and there were all sorts of pink candies as well. I made chocolate dipped pretzels and Aunt Y made a cute bassinet shaped basket for them. There were about 30 people at the shower. It was fun for me to able to get together one more time with the ladies from where I grew up. I really do miss them all! Click on any photo to view full size.

"I am not a homemaker because I had too little ambition or education to make anything else of myself. No—I am a homemaker because God has given me the infinite honor of being a wife, and I delight in employing every ability that He has equipped me with in this glad career." ~Mrs. Lanier Ivester, 'I Am A Stay-At-Home Wife'
Me:
The Chatty Housewife
I'm most likely sitting with my hot tea and a good book, somewhere comfy, in beautiful Northwest WA, USA.
I'm a Christian, saved by grace. The Mr. and I were married in April 2002 and we are loving it. There is nothing nicer than spending your life with the person that you know God has chosen especially for you. I am a SAHW (Stay-at-Home Wife) or as others say, a Keeper at Home. That means I take care of the home, it doesn't mean I sit at home all the time! We don't have any kids yet, but we have a Boxer girl named Petra who we love a lot. She keeps life interesting with all her quirks and her smart mind. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis - fun, eh? (I had to add the "eh" in there, since I am originally from Canada.) Thanks to wonderful medical technology and most of all, the Grace of God, I can currently say that it is under control. I also have Celiac disease and eat gluten free.
