Today is Halloween. Elina is super psyched! Super…she could hardly contain herself as she dressed up as Tinkerbell this morning for a school dance and special Halloween activities.
I took some photos, really super cute to see all of Disneyland in the school yard.
We’re headed out around 6 tonight to Trick or Treat (beg for [...]
I have been honored with an awarded with a “You Make Me Smile Award” from a friend far away in Norway – Tonje. She is a woman ahead of her times in Norway. A paper craft artist. It appears I now need to forward this award to a few others who make my day – [...]
This weekend, like any other weekend here at the Anker home was quite a busy one. Friday as usual, I was out. Saturday Elina has Sportball and Gymnastics, then a birthday party this week and next. Today we got to see Elina’s friends from her daycare at Emmett’s birthday party. She moved [...]
I have so much to do these days. Elina fills our weekends with many activities. Our nights are busy with supper, video and then bedtime. When Elina’s finally in bed I get to choose between laundry, stamping or just plain relaxing. Most often relaxing (aka watching TV or resting) wins [...]
Elina turned 4 in August and I’ve tried 2 other times to book an appointment to get her 4 year old vaccinations – MMR (Mumps, Measles and Rubella) and each time Elina would be sick (fever once and a cold the other time). Today we finally got it done. We went to the office knowing [...]
She likes bugs, spiders, ladybugs, small critters, ants, dirt, leaves and plants…

Today was 24c – for the middle of October, we’re wearing [...]
Just needed to add that Elina’s loving gymnastics. After this weeks session I asked one of the instructors how she was doing, (since she just started) and she said, she was following along as if she’d been doing this for a while.
Elina has some foot issues, she has this habit of walking on her [...]
Today I managed to stay at work until 2:30 and with all the energy it took to get home and crawl into bed.
I was woken up by a little girl and now daddy and her are making the kitchen messy with those YUMMMY pancakes they make. They just gave me one and its much more [...]
First off, I don’t think we would have ever been able to afford a Niagara weekend like this, even falls view rooms. It was really beautiful. I had a great filling weekend and most of all, learned so much about the board and my duties for the next 3 years as a Board of Director.The [...]
So this weekend I’m attending a Board of Directors and Staff retreat in Niagara Falls – Sheridan Falls View this weekend. I was elected to this board earlier this month. I’ve very excited at this opportunity and responsibility. Its a 3 year term, we meet monthly at lunchtime (so my nights aren’t [...]
