Aren't we cute?

We are all making angry faces! HeeHee!

Check out my green thumb!!

Turns out that I have had a green thumb all along. I have always thought that I am a bad cook and a plant killer. I killed a cactus once! How? I over loved it, too much water. But this plant, it was a little piece that a friend of ours broke off the dying plant and stuck in a glass of water. It sat in the water for a long time, then one day I said, "Krista, let's plant this!". So I did. I stuck it in a glass planter with some dirt that James had in the basement. I got discouraged because it wasn't doing well, the dirt was really watery and the plant didn't seem to be growing roots. I took the plant and dirt out of the planter, threw some glass beads in and spread them out on the bottom, then stuck the plant back in with a little more dirt. And Ta-friggin'-Daa!! The plant has now gone from one sprig of dying to a beautiful healthy plant!! So I am more capable than I ever gave myself credit for, it is amazing what you can do with a little time!!

Meeting the work pals.












Last night I met James' work buddies. They usually will do a wing/beer night at the end of a bunch of shifts and this time wives/girlfriends were invited! We went to a bar in Courtice. It was nice to put the names to faces. I have heard many a story about the various characters he works with. Also meeting the women behind these men was nice. I think that we will be hanging out more. When we got home after many beers(James) and 5 martinis(Krista), Frank was attacked. With love, mind you. And lots of it! James had just finished a 3 day, 12 hours a day work week, had many beers and he loves Frank. Let's be honest this is a serious Bromance. I was gone all weekend and they had some bonding time. Okay all together now, "Awwwww"!
