Today I spent the day at another quaint town called "St Andrews by the Sea" with my friend Ronda. I usually spend some time here everytime I come home. We did the shops, spent some time by the ocean and had lunch outside at one of the sidewalk cafe's. It was another very hot day, but the ocean gives off a nice breeze so it was beautiful. It was another great day!! 3 More Days and I'll be home! I'm getting ready!! PS We also had a tour of the Ganongs Chocolate Museum and we could eat all the chocolate we wanted while there! As I said this trip has not been good for my waistline!!

Well yesterday I just visited with Ken's Mom most of the day. I did visit with Ronda and we were starving so we went to pizza delight for lunch. Emily said supper wasn't going to be ready until 7PM. Just as I was finishing eating, Ken called and said his mom called to tell him to call me because supper was ready. (that was a mouthful!) She made roast beef, mashed potatos,homemade rolls, asparagus, carrots and apple crisp for dessert!! I dared not tell her that I had already eaten, so I had to eat again. It was delicious and God must have helped me to eat it!! If anyone is reading this that talks to her, you are sworn to secrecy!! An hour or so after supper, Earl went to the store and brought home icecream and we all had icecream cones. I am going to be a blimp when I get home.
Tessa, I am scared to get on the scales when I get home, but Emily's scale says I am exactly the same. I haven't sat still much though , so that is probally helping!!

Today I will just visit some and I'm thinking of getting a realtor to show me some lakefront property. Then there is church tonight.
PS I haven't posted about the fourth of July yet because my camera battery died and I had to use a disposable one, so I'll have to develop it and scan those photos later.

Here are the types of homes you will find in the new subdivisions in Fredericton. They go for around 300K Give or take depending on size etc. Amazing eh? I love them!!

.Today, Day 9, It is 35 degrees today. It is very hot! It has been another wonderful day spent with a wonderful sister!
Fonda and I went to the Delta Hotel for lunch. It is a tradition with us. They have an all you can eat pasta, salad, and dessert bar. You choose your own pasta and sauce and what you want in it. It is very good. After that we went to the downtown Fredericton shops. I will be leaving to go back to St. Stephen tommorrow to visit with more of Ken's family, so I may not be able to post pictures.

Berry picking at Fonda's. We tried to explain to the kids what to look for in a berry so they could pick good ones. When we got home we realized that Destiny had it all figured out. She would take a bit out of it and if it tasted good she would add it to her basket!
We are having beautiful weather here!!
