Cutting Clan Up-date...

This past month has been a very eventful month for the Cutting Clan. Don and Wendy got married last Saturday, Nastasha had a baby girl, Ron retired from McGavins this week and Harv and Doreen are off on a two week cruise to some exotic place. Dad had an operation, which we are thankful went quite well and Madeline is back home again. Ken and Jade have set a wedding date for the end of July and Justine and Chad have moved to Vernon closer to their great grandparents, whom I hope they keep in touch with. Andrea is expecting a new daughter fairly soon. Not sure whats been happening in Dan and Donna's life but hope its only good stuff. Thats not bad for a family that can cruise along without anything exciting happening for long periods of time. We are not having a family reunion this year as Dad and Gloria are going to Sask. the end of June for a nursing reunion for Gloria. Next year I believe its in Kamloops all things going well.
So I am off to Langley next week on a quilting retreat, looking forward to seeing family and friends that I only see once a year and having a great time of shopping and laughing, enjoying each others company.

I can see clearly now...

My hubby owns a lot of stuff..tho'he doesn't own a welder he owns several welding masks. Today he goes over to Ted's to get his trailer welded up and takes along a welding mask with him. Now this a pretty fancy mask, it darkens if the light of the welder gets to bright and lightens up when it isn't. Here Ted, try this new welding mask and see how you like it, he says. Ted gives it a try and ,No, its too dark for me he says. Ed then turns the little dial to adjust it some but no it's still too dark, Dad. Along comes Colin to help out and Grandpa says, here Colin try this mask out. Colin then got his Grandpa good, he tries it on, takes it off and looks at it and says its too dark but maybe if you remove the protective coating you could see thru it!
That gave his Dad and grandpa a good laugh at themselves!
