restock the store & birthdays

We awoke to a fogged in yard but it soon burned off. Busy day today is starting with coffee and a bagel. Sheldon had Shaina's jeep started and soon she was up and joined him to change the oil in it in the warm garage. BRRR it is a cold one out there folks. By 11 Shaina was off to the city followed by Grama and Papa heading the opposite direction to the Hat. Britt did come up to say good bye but was using her last day to be very laid back. I loaded up the car once it was backed back into the garage with items to go to the store.

Sheldon snapped these 4 pics while out rolling a bale

Sheldon rolled out a bale for the ponies as tomorrow is his first week long stint up north. After a bite to eat, he and I were off to Airdrie. I planned to do a quick return at Costco but after seeing the return line, we skipped it going straight to the booth. My partner was there already with her husband. She and I got busy reorganizing the booth, the fellows brought in my new dresser and end table and took out the cranberry, thanks guys! Then they were off to Tim's to visit while we finished up. They did bring us a tea back for our pickup about 2 hours later, here is the booth when we left.

It seems the cranberry dresser needed more room so the ride home had the little 140 year old chair riding on my lap ;)

We were back home at 5:30 hitting fog again close to home, the temperatures were all over with major -27 cold pockets to the house reading -16. A quick beverage and by 6 were were heading to town to celebrate Asher's 6th birthday. Today is also Mya's 8th and according to my call to her this am, her celebration is a movie with 3 little buddies later in the week. Hotdogs and kraft dinner were the supper menu followed up with picachu cupcake. Thanks for inviting up Paetz family and Happy cake day to my two little buddies!!
