Miss Brieanna Lynn Rixen

Please allow me to introduce my very beautiful new niece Brieanna Lynn Rixen. She was born on on Oct 20 2007 at 8:47AM. She was 5 lb 6 oz and 18 inches tall. She sure loves to eat and can down 2 oz which is impressive for a baby her size. Both Sis and brian are doing very well and Dailyn has been very very helpfull on checking in on her little sister and letting mommy know that the babys hungry, or smelly or is just plain cranky. Mom and dad left on friday night and arrived on sunday morning to the sight of sis, brian, dailyn and Bri all waithing for them. Wish I could have been there to see it, but i will in may so i can spent my dads birthday there with them.

from coast to coast

Well i'm back in calgary after and amazing trip home to nova scotia. one i wont soon forget. started off with heavy fog in Halifax and us circling over greenwood ( where i was going ) for a good 30mins or so. You see the fog can get pretty thick in halifax that we almost got diverted to Charlottetown PEI, which thankfully we didn't. we got in at 7am locl time ( 4am calgary time) and yes barry was there with my large Tim Hortons double double and once i got my luggage it was off to greenwood. a quick 2hr drive with a quick stop in Windsor for a pee break and a stretch. Once i got settled in at barrys and michelles place and being happily attacked by tango the dog it was off to get the tuxedos. as for that part well..messed up and we will leave it at that. ahhh saturday the day of the wedding gorgeous day out. about 25C ( 78F) and not a cloud around. wonderfully short ceremony and then off to you guessed it tim hortons for coffee with steve, tascha, alexander ( steves son) and rob and that was fun.
the reception was over at port lorne on the coast the hall its self was about 900ft form the coast so it was nice. food was fun, beer was cold and it was a good ole party. sunday was a relaxing day of visiting and shootin around. the rest of the week was just relaxin, drinkin (need i say more) and shopping. went for wings at the top-hat barand ounge on friday night and what a shock. the wing were not very good, major dissapointment but keiths was only $2.50 a bottle...gotta love it. saturday was more relaxin and chillin and sunday was well home time. we left the valley (me barry and his wife michelle ) at 3:30p with a stop in the mall tosee who was there but alas no one was. so it was off to the airport.we got to the airport at 5 and they had some stuff to do back in the valley so we said our goodbyes i went thru security at 6p and when i got thur it was almost 25mins later, after that i got my tims and went to the gate. the flight home was a bit rough but in all a good flight. just outside of saskatoon a lady passed out and we almost had to make a emergency landing in saskatoon but we didnt so i was happy. so we got into calgary at about 10:3pm and by the time we got off and EMS took the lady off it was about 11pm..so by the time i got home, lobsters in the fridge showered and into bed it was 1am. but its good to be home and now its time to get back to work and start savin for xmas.. thinkin i'll go back in 2yrs for a visit and hopefully i wont be alone !
