BBQ

10:53 pm, April 28th, 2006

Well last Sunday Lisa and I threw a BBQ for our friends here at BBC. Jeff, Becky, Matt, Sabrina, and Dee came over. We had a good feed of burgers, hot dogs, steak, and pork chops. This was the last time this school year we were all together for awhile. Dee will be back over the summer a few times to feed her fish, and Jeff and Becky will be back in the fall. Matt and Sabrina will not be back though. Matt is doing his internship at a church in South Dakota and then will be done at BBC. Hopefully Lisa and I will be able to go and visit them sometime in the next couple years. I would love to drive out to SD since I have not been there in over 10 years and Lisa has never been. That would be a fun trip. Last night Lisa and I said bye to Matt and Sabrina since they were heading out early. Right about now they are somewhere in PA I think. Hopefully they will have a safe trip home. One good thing came out of Matt and Sabrina leaving though… we bought their LazyBoy off them that they bought when they moved here. So now we have two LazyBoys. Lisa and I enjoying the new chair greatly. Thanks Matt and Sabrina!
Matt and Sabrina if you are reading this you should have stayed two more days! Sully’s is opening this Sunday. Lisa is already planning on walking down to get some ice cream… We miss ya already! When everyone gets back this fall we will all have to take a walk down to get some ice cream.

The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe

9:39 pm, April 13th, 2006

Well as I am typing this a few of us are watching my birthday present from Lisa and Maddie… The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. I am sitting here with Lisa, Matt, Sabrina, Jeff and Becky. The only person here who has not seent he movie is Sabrina. This is my fourth time watching it, Jeff’s third time (second time tonight!) Matt, Becky and Lisa’s second time. Well Lisa can’t really count this as her second time because she is asleep on the floor as always… this time before the movie even started. She was snoring a few minutes ago like always. I woke her up long enough to tell her she was snoring and she told me I was not. Everyone then told her she was. Now she is asleep again and not snoring. Today was the last full day of classes here at BBC. That means most of the students will be gone soon and Matt and Sabrina will be leaving for South Dakota. :-( Lisa and I are going to miss them when they are gone. I am glad they were able to come over tonight. We will have to drive out next summer to visit them. That would be a really fun trip to take. Jeff and Becky will be gone this summer but will be back in the fall. I have been taking lots of photos for the school but need more. So I will be busy the next couple weeks with that. I have found one thing Maddie likes to do with me. She like to pay on my chest in the lazyboy and sleep. Just like I used to do with dad when I was baby. Time to get back to the movie…

Movie Night

Trip to Fredericton

11:33 pm, April 11th, 2006

Today Lisa, Maddie and I drove to Fredericton. I had to drive the copywriter for Bethany’s new viewbook to the airport. So we made a night of it. We called Carlie White after leaving the airport and went to supper at Wendy’s. Lisa wanted to go there and later told me that it was not that great. We should have gone to Pizza Hut like I suggested! you can never go wrong with pizza. After we dropped Carlie off at her dorm at UNB we went to Wallmart and picked up a few things we needed. Lisa then fed Maddie and we drove around for a few minutes and found a car we both like. Maybe we should trade in the Nissan. If you are wondering what kind of car it is take a look at the photos below. Also we had a new delivery to the house today! Lisa and I bought a LazyBoy recliner to sit in and and rock Maddie. It is much nicer than our old couch and chair we have. Hopefully we will be able to keep the cats off the chair and from scratching it  to pieces. I am trying double sided tape on the corners to keep them from scratching but I am not sure if it is going to work. Anyone have any other suggestions on how to keep them from scratching?

I’m 30!

12:01 am, April 10th, 2006

Well today was my birthday. I turned 30 and I think this will be my last birthday I will celebrate for awhile since Maddie’s birthday is one week before mine. Last night Lisa had a few friends come over, had cake and talked for awhile. Maddie seemed to like everyone being here until she got tired later on in the night. She has been doing well with noise. She is like me and sleeps though everything. Well if anyone feels bad and forgot my birthday I am missing something I have always wanted… a Porsche. So feel free to send one to me. Black would be nice but I will take whatever you want to send. Maddie went to church for the fist time. (Well second if you count a missions service we went to at BBC last Thursday) Everyone wanted to see and and hold her. She was good and never fussed once. Maddie just sat there and looked around at everyone. I am sure she was wondering what was going on and who all those people were. She is sleeping around four hours at a time and hopefully she will start sleeping longer so Lisa can get some more rest. Well here is what everyone is wanting to see… Photos!

Maddie Allilson Wilson was born at 2:39 today. She weighed 8 lbs. 2 oz. and was 19 inches long. She and Lisa are feeling great. No problems at all and the delivery was very short. Lisa was in labor for less then 9 hours and only pushed for about 40 minutes before Maddie showed up. Well here is what everyone is wanting - photos!
