The Balloon That Just Wouldn't

Leave us alone.
Remember this post where we picked up a handful of balloons?
If I had known that these balloons would last FOREVER and one day I would have one as a stalker- I would have left them behind.
As I am writing this post I can see the reflection of that pesky balloon behind me.
I am telling you it will not leave me alone.
Its favorite hang out spot is right in front of my chair.
In fact it is there right now.
I am just waiting for the opportune time to P-O-P it.
Meaning after Ruby goes to bed tonight.
I am tired of feeling a tickling on my foot or face while I am trying to sleep, or see it 'peeping' around a corner while we are hanging out in the living room, or 'feeling' it following me around while I am cooking.
I am telling you- this thing is creepy.
Here is a Noni telling the balloon whats what.
He's always looking out for me....

Alberta Boy Band

Some would call them the reigning champions
and that would be true...
But i prefer to call these two musical genius's or geni (however you prefer to pluralize that word) Alberta's number one boy band!
Or I guess technically that is what they prefer to call themselves...
They did it again
They came from behind and kicked optometry skit nights butt!
Who knew I would marry a musical superstar genius!
Congratulations are in order for the Alberta Boy Band that is Justin and Clark!
Here is a picture of them performing...

And what you are all really waiting for-
THE VIDEO!
Now you can all enjoy this moment as if you were there with all the other adoring fans...


They won for best skit of their year-
and we did come away with some prizes
(I say we like I had anything to do with it...)
(Well I was support... right jayne?)
Number one being bragging rights of course
number 2 being a 10 dollar gift card for the movies (which they have to share)
and last but not least
Number 3
These balloons

Which, if you want to be technical,- we stole-
or Ruby did
But I am sure they didn't mind- and they have not left Ruby's sight since she got them.
She gets emotional every time one pops.
We still have a half dozen that are holding strong...
Justin was even nice enough to tie a basket on the bottom so she could hoard more of her stuff.... How kind...
-don't worry mom- we don't let her play with them around her neck- contrary to what these pictures are telling you...
