I have finally received the official confirmation in the mail from Ryerson - I will be graduating on Thursday June 10th with my BScN - yeah!! It feels like I have been working on closing this chapter of my life forever. Emily is so excited - she can't wait to see me in my gown. I am afraid that it might be a bit of a disappointment for her, I think she is expecting an Oscar style ball gown...we'll see.
I had a wonderful week off, away from work. I spent Wednesday at the pottery studio - all day, something I could totally get used to. It is so relaxing and gives me the opportunity to focus on one thing at a time. Thursday Mady and I spent the day together - reading books, planting some annuals, and doing laundry. Friday we spent most of the day playing outside - the weather has been fabulous - slightly too hot for a couple of days but overall sunny and breezy.

Happy Victoria Day!
Today marks the end of the first official long weekend of the summer. Normally this weekend is cold, rainy, and miserable - not this one. The weather this weekend was fabulous, and possibily even a little bit too hot. Yes - I did manage to get a sunburn :) This is so typical of me, make sure that the kids are slathered in SPF 55 (much too high for me - kidding), and then forget to put any sunscreen on myself.
Norb and I spent the day in Buffalo on Saturday doing two of my most favourite things - shopping and scrapbooking. My mom watched the girls and managed to keep them busy. Sunday we travelled up to Hepworth to visit Aunt AnnaLee and to tour the barn and visit John to watch the cows being milked. I think it is a toss up about what the highlight of the day was - sitting on a tractor or holding some relatively new baby cats. It is probably the kittens, we are still hearing about them. The milking, the horses, feeding a calf don't have a chance of being a highlight when you are able to hold a kitten that is just slightly bigger than a zhu zhu pet.
Today we visited a few garden centers, pulled some (lots of) weeds, planted some annuals, visited Norb's parents, and went to the park. It is hard to say who is more tired.
