Another Fairmont season has gone by. If I were Celine Dionne, I'd be singing, "These are the special times". Aside from loosing on 24 hours due to the flu...I was good to go. Also can I mention a full roast beef dinner, an incredible breakfast and smoked turkey dinner as well. It's funny...when I'm sick...I think I'm dieing and I was singing the death scenes from any play/opera/musical I knew in my tiny "sick" closet (couldn't be near the baby...how sad!). My sister told me that I gave her all my money...and then I told her to make sure I split whatever I had between both of my sisters...and then I gave Calista my baton. I also compliment everyone as apparently I figure it's the last time I will see them. Very funny.

Mom and I

My mom and I in the vest and touque I gave her for Christmas by the waterfall!

The family

One of my favorite families! Calista, Lori and Darin

Stacy

My sister Stacy on a hike

wind

A VERY windy day. We could lean in the wind and it would keep us up. I'd seen nothing like it before and I'm from Lethbridge.

tyler and danielle

They are always like this....

Snowboard

A Tyler and Danielle gift...my first snowboard. I think I might be sick in this picture.

Snowman

Our snowman with honeydew eyeballs. Carla and I decided to make a children's video for Calista on building a snowman and it was full of Christian conflict, resolution and big intense happy smiles like above. I think it could sell at Blessing's. I'm not kidding. We were pretty funny.

Lee and Drew

Taking Lee cross-country skiing the lazy way. Rode the chairlift up the hill, found the path and went down. The ladies in the ski shop made us feel stupid and made us tie shoe stings on our skis on the lift so when we got off the lift we'd look and feel like fools.

the gang

Stephanie, Mike, Andrew, Tyler and Danielle. Right after some cross country. This is Tyler's favorite sport now. He loves it. He's quite passionate about it Mike and Stephanie taught us this addicting dice game which is basically sort of like "Deal or no Deal" but instead of that being a TV show, it brings the drama right into your living room. I can't handle games like this...I get too greedy and lose. I think I hit a new low when my 93 year old "safe playing" grandma beat me twice.

Back to school now. Feel disorientated. Give me three weeks...

Oh the tried, tested and true '3 week rule'. That Prue is one wise woman I tell ya . . .

Sounds like an incredible time . . . A nice edition to the 'fairmont saga'.

So, have you received any emails from your fairmont guests regarding their fairmont experience? I hear it's the cool thing to do you know . . . get a little fresh perspective.

My tongue is so far in my cheek right now I think I may actually be cutting off my oxygen supply. That's ok, because I find myself to be quite humorous.

My family bought a deal or no deal game not too long ago. We played with Brent and Mary-Anne over Christmas. [Delaney helped a bit too]. I had a glorious moment in which it came down to all or nothing. I am a strong advocate for holding on to what you've got. You've gotta have faith. That's what it's about. I know, cause I won.

That's all she wrote.

Hey Andrew Snyder,

Did you sneak into the pool this year?

If you don't get the video into Blessings then you should at least post it on You Tube so the world can enjoy it.

Hey andrew, is that dice game about rolling 1's and 5's and triples? 'Cause if so, it's pretty much our favourite game down here in lil' ol' bahamas. We're addicted to it as well. 'cept that in OUR playing of it, we don't get "Greedy and loose" - what is that?!?

loose.........goose..........moose..........noose........caboose..........papoose.
lose.......cruise.......ooze..........booze..........snooze........

Oh to be Swedish.............

But traditionally Andrew does get 'loose' after 10:00pm.

Did you have Mozart Balls? Huh? What about singing Irish Blessing with only tenors and altos. No? Did anyone go sliding and land on their heads? Kananaskis? I thought so.

Seriously though, it looks like you had lots of fun. I want to see this video you speak of.

it's basically like a fairytale land, that i only hear about and read about on your blog.

pretty cool.

Hi Andrew!

Just wanted to let you know that I now copy and paste my blog entries from Blogspot to Xanga, so that those who prefer Xanga can see what I'm up to and yet keep my main one going for the others that use Blogspot. So which ever one my friend uses, they will be able to get the same news at both! (So that means you only need to check one or the other, not both! ;) )

hey how come we haven't heard from you in such a long time?

Posted 6/30/2007 12:37 PM by carmweb - reply

I actually came here first to comment . . . but then remembered that you don't really use xanga [or haven't since january], so I commented on mine. My logic was clearly faulty because if you weren't going to check yours, why would you check mine?? For that I am TRULY sorry and I hope you can forgive, and even POSSIBLY forget . . . only time will tell . . .
