It's that time again... the 10th day of the month, when we take 10 photos for 10 consecutive hours. It's always fun. Today, I was working, so my photos may not be exactly right, time-wise, but I still had fun. I hope you enjoy them.
Missy says "Good Morning!"
Trucks full of potatoes waiting for us!
Hubby is bringing the car around...
An old photo of my brother, sister and I!
So, I am house-sitting for a couple in our church... These two plants looked lovely just two days ago, and now they are all shriveled up and sad looking! :( I think I killed their plants!
Peanut Butter & Chocolate Ice Cream!!

What a day! Let me start about a week ago. My sister took her daughter, who broke her leg, to Fredericton to see a specialist, and in a round-about way became quite obsessed with Costco! Fredericton is about an hour and a half - two hours drive away from me, but we decided to split a membership, and maybe take a monthly or so trip down to stock up on things. It will especially come in handy at Christmas time, I think. So, this past Friday, we decided we'd take Saturday for a girls day out, and head to Fredericton to go shopping at Costco. I decided I'd Instagram our day, and share it here. The day started out well, and ended on a very different note. Please enjoy sharing our day.
On the way!
Roxanne, my sister, came up to pick Mom and I up, and we headed back to her place to get her two girls. Mom is always the pilot for these adventures.... it's just better all around that way, since she deals with the backseat drivers the best. LOL
Here we are, picking up two more girlies.....
A stop at Tim Horton's for breakfast. There were no Chocolate Chip muffins, but when I requested them, they brought one out for me. It was still warm, and gooey.
Crossing the Longest Covered Bridge in the World, Hartland, NB!!
We did stop at The Lighthouse, a Christian Bookstore in Fredericton. It's pretty cool, but I find that the Promises bookstore in Woodstock has better deals. :)
We made it!
We finished shopping and had some lunch. Mom didn't want me to take her picture, but I told her I was going to take it either way, so she could smile for it, or not. This is what I got. I think it's much better than nothing. :) These are some beautiful ladies right here!
Love the Canola Fields... :)
When we were coming home, we got the message that Gram, Dad's mom, was quickly deteriorating in health, and that the family had been called in. She had congestive heart failure, so we knew it was just a matter of time. While we were at the hospital with her, the boys did watch a baseball game.... Sometimes you need a distraction.
We came home for a quick BBQ, and then Dad went back to the hospital for awhile.
Later in the evening, we went to Carl's Dairy Bar and had some ice cream. Then, we went to sleep, shortly after. Derek barely let me finish my ice cream before he was wanting to head to bed. In the morning, I found out that Gram had passed in the night. So, it started out as a beautiful day, and ended on a very sad note. We take joy in knowing, though, that she is now in Heaven with her loved ones, and that she is no longer suffering or in pain.
We love you, Gram! You brought a lot of joy to those around you.
