Micah had been growing out his hair to look like a Viking (insipiration: Ragnar Lothbrok from the tv show Vikings). But he thought he should cut his hair before the baby comes!

Renovations to the downstairs are coming along. One thing we really wanted to change is the stairs! Here is the before picture (note the ugly yellow/orange wood everywhere...)

Finished another crochet project today- a puppy hat!
Picture
September 22 2015
Today we had 8 cords of wood delivered! Now we have some cutting and splitting to do along with the million other projects we are attempting to do!

Micah and I think its good to keep learning new skills and to maintain old ones. Last year I was taught how to crochet granny squares and now I've ventured into other crocheting projects. Micah used to play the euphonium and was very good at it. We decided to buy him the instrument so he can start to play again!

I've started crocheting again and this time wanted to make a blanket without granny squares. I ended up giving this grey and purple blanket to Arya Ambs, the newest member of our branch, born September 2!


The blanket is made with just a double crochet stitch and I used the pattern from this website for the ruffle around the edge- Ruffled Baby Blanket for Beginners

Although I was sure it was girl, today we found out that we are having a baby boy!

Picture
July 4 2015
We are excited to announce the opening of our brand new online store- Ammon's Ties. It started out as a hobby collecting polyester ties for Micah and I thought it would be fun to share the love online! Feel free to look around!
June 24 2015
Today we made a video- our favourite movie theatre is having a contest for free movies for a year. We decided to enter with Micah being our movie star. It was so much fun to make! Laugh every time I think about it :)

Our little kitty Raven almost died! We had to rush him to the vet in Winnipeg. Thankfully he is okay now but it was scary!  Read more about it in our Journal section.

May 5 2015
Yay! We are excited to announce we are expecting! A much better ultrasound result than last time- a tiny baby with a beating heart :)

Picture
April 24 2015
Micah has outgrown the Bowflex! He does the max weight for all of our exercises so we decided to get some free weights. 
Picture
April 8 2015
Today I got a Nintendo 3DS plus a game for free using my Shoppers Optimum points! Micah thinks its the best thing I've brought home from Shoppers ;)

Happy Birthday Dad!

Today we had our Birthday dinner at my parents' house and I got to see Sassy, the 22 year old cat! :)

This recipe for Banana Bread Brownies was posted on Facebook and we thought we would give it a try. It's really good! Here's the recipe (make sure to add the walnuts or even chocolate chips!)
Picture
March 6 2015
Today we met my parents for lunch at Casey's in Kenora. We had a nice time but I have a really bad cold!

Goodbye Redbox, so sad it's leaving Canada!
Picture
March 2 2015
So for the past couple days we have had no running water! We have been bathing with our drinking water and flushing toilets with melted snow! The plumber came out today to see what the problem was- we thought it might be a frozen pipe from the well! But he found that the heat trace wasn't plugged in and as soon as he did, we had water! At least it was an easy fix :)
Picture
February 28 2015
We found a new co-op game, Divinity: Original Sin. So far pretty good, very old school RPGesque!  
Picture
February 22 2015
So far the winter has been pretty nice but that last couple of days it as dropped to -45 with the windchill! My car wouldn't start so I had to get it jumped a couple of times to make it home from work.

We bought season 1 of Vikings and started to watch it today. It is super good- our new favourite show! 
Picture
February 9 2015
Today we had a full day in Winnipeg! We met with my Grandpa and we took us to his museum he has out at Finmac Perimeter Lumber. We then met my parents at The Keg for dinner. After that we watched two movies- Seventh Son and Jupiter Ascending!
January 6 2015
Today we finished making our Top 10 Movies of 2014 video and uploaded it to YouTube. Enjoy!
