The Bouncing Bambi Snow Bug






















Hello gang and welcome back to the Welshman's news from Cannuck land / Obama Land
Jan 16-17-18 weekend brought my darling over the border to Alberta Canada on a last minute flight plan. It was on her birthday in May when Kells last visited the Great White North and it was so nice for her to see the kids again. Luckily she did not have to experience the chills that Canada normally brings to us at this time of the year.
She is one lucky beggar I tell ya! ha ha.
We had a great weekend with many friends eager to say hello and share a glass of Vino. Saturday night took us to the Redstone Grill where we met the kids and a lot of my close friends for some great food and cocktails.
We had a nice afternoon on Sunday at the cottage barbecuing and taking pictures with Bryony Sean and Conor.
I even managed to get Kellee out onto the lake, she thought she would fall through the ice until she found out it was two feet thick ha ha!
Somehow I managed to get a snowball in the back of my head on our short walk back to the pad.Nice eh!! I lend her my gloves because I thought her hands were cold only to find out she is packing a nice frosty one for me.

Payback is coming soon!!!!
Maybe Mexico in a few weeks will bring her a surprise ha!!!

I just got back myself on Tuesday morning from a 5 day weekend back in our Michigan home with Kells, Shelbey and the one and only Bugster.That Canine beauty is so much fun in the snow bouncing around after her ball. I think she is a Spaniel Bambi cross Ha Ha!
Did a little playing at a local pub called Duffy's which is really close to Kellee's office. Kells Mom Sheila came down for a couple of Zinfy's and had a bit of fun with us. A good time was had by all. Check Kells blog for pics at Duffy's, she is always so prompt and on the ball with her blog and my band blog updates. Thanks baby " I Love Ya"
Sean picked me up at the Airport and flew me back down HWY 2 to get to see my eager little guitar students.I thought I was on another flight in Sean's mean machine. Gonna buy him a lighter pair of shoes to drive in. ha ha!



Anyhow I am outta here
Take care gang

Engaging the New Year






Happy New Year everyone!
Christmas went great and the gathering at our home was a lot of fun with an abundance of food and soft drinks ha ha!
New Years Eve took us to Knights Steakhouse for a great meal with Sheila and Phil
and then back to their home for a glass of wine to finish off the evening.
At least that's what Kellee thought! I however had a different plan to end 08.
Yes! when I say engaging the New Year, I really meant it.
I picked the right moment, got down on one knee and asked Kells if she would marry me. Thankfully she said "YES" and I am now one relieved and Happy Fiance. Phewww!!!
From the first day I met her, I knew she was the person I would be with for the rest of my days. We are both very happy and will keep you posted for the big day.
We are planning a very simple beach wedding in Mexico on Feb 14th 2010.

Hope 2009 brings you everything you need.
All for now
Ian
