election day, etc.



ok, start watching the news, i voted today and the conservatives are coming out on top. like they said in their campaign "Stand up for Canada, Stand up for change." i had to laugh as i was given my ballot, as it looked pretty much like the snap shot above, kind of like a junior high note passed from some guy that had "if you like me check the box". quite simple, almost too simple is seemed. well who cares, i did it and feel good.

we went today to the drug store to let eli hand pick some new kids shampoo, soap and bubble bath. this is my way of hoping that he will actually get in the tub and wash his hair. for some reason bath hysteria has occured at our home and there is no way eli is washing his hair. it is quite uncharacteristic which is why we are scratching our heads about it, but i think we have made a breakthrough with him actually wanting to pick his own shampoo AND actually talking about it without completely breaking down. we will see. will let you know.

today was so stinking nice out, i got the hose out and washed the floor of the garage, getting rid of all the mud and gravel that was brought in from the cars. it is so nice to see a clean garage...

i was also able to get a hold of old friends from our south pasadena days, nate and bethany callister. so good to talk to bethany and catch up, it was like we didn't miss a beat, and we haven't spoken in almost 4 years. now there is a good friend.

I hope eli enjoys his bath now! Dahl loves his bath, but he hates getting his hair washed too. He always freaks when it is time to wash his hair. Good luck!
