On Friday night we went over to Staples and picked up a kit, "Write Your Legal Will in 3 Easy Steps." I didn't think it would be difficult and this confirmed it for me - 3 easy steps. Step 1 - pick an executor - done. Step 2 - pick a guardian - done.

My sister Sarah was among them. This also marks roughly 10 years since my graduation from the same school. Her graduating class was 91 people, where as mine was 28, so her ceremony was a little bit longer. We recently purchased a new camera, and so I had way too many pictures to choose from. http://warren.cybr.org/j+w/2008/05/eml-class-of-2008.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Warren)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614667.post-5219938995250944472Thu, 28 Feb 2008 06:15:00 +00002008-02-27T23:18:50.297-07:00 I think that there's something else going on at the same time, but the real scoop at the Legislature Grounds is, well, the Legislature.

Key highlights: - We finally moved into the Condo - Warren changed jobs not once but twice and is now downtown doing something he is passionate about - I earned a second designation and after a year and a half my promotion went through - we had some great trips around the province camping with friends and heading around the south with the Sikkemas - my first http://warren.cybr.org/j+w/2008/01/happy-new-year.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Julie)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614667.post-5021042192416089722Sat, 29 Dec 2007 19:09:00 +00002007-12-29T12:12:04.494-07:00Last night Warren and I headed off to New Xmas at Casa Gordon/LeBlanc.

Friday night was a really well done play called Bent that actually stared some of Kerry's talented acting friends - if Edmonton theatre were half as good we might actually still have seasons tickets to the citadel.

I have to say I love having dinner parties - mostly because I enjoy bringing together vast amounts of food for consumption.

On Saturday Warren and I spent the afternoon doing data entry for the Parkinson's Society and then this morning I participated in a Read In at Parkdale School. All in all there were 100 volunteers from TELUS at the school this morning. All of us had purchased books and sat down with kids from the school to read with them.

First stop: Calgary. We took in the Shatner Art Exhibit and the Glenbow Museum before joining Premee and friends for dinner at Saltlik. We spent our evening at the Mariott and the next morning got up and drove down to Lethbridge for a week with Nicole and Marcel.

In addition to the Julie Renovations that occurred we managed to spend some time with our families and friends over the past couple of months. The first event of the summer was the 07/07/07 marriage of Marc & Cari Letourneau. Warren was best man and so Ang, also flying solo, and I hooked up for the night.http://warren.cybr.org/j+w/2007/09/summer-adventures-part-1-july.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Julie)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614667.post-9015101310747551081Sat, 08 Sep 2007 01:37:00 +00002007-09-07T19:40:52.753-06:00There are three sinks in the Bathroom at Haweli's downtown. While using the facilities this evening I discovered the "new" dual Moen faucet. First, I tried the hot water tap without success as there was no water hooked up. Then, I tried the cold water tap and to my surprise water came out ... of my tap and in the sink next to mine. Curious, I shut off the water and tried again.

Hope you have an opportunity to celebrate with family and friends in Sarnia. I would also like to hypothesize that with so many April/May birthdays that August must have been a very busy month ... Solange and I were both born in April. Then Erin, Elizabeth, Nicole, Kim, and Warren's Grandma.

Anyway, we have reconnected recently and since 98 she has changed her last name following marriage to a strapping man named Kyle Mustard. Last night they (well she for the most part) gave birth to a little boy - Logan.
