HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!!!!



My poor attempt at a maple leaf cheese cake.....we had the house decorated in Canadian flags and flew a few of them outside our house, we really miss all the festivities back in the home land.



Broken Bow Okalhoma about a three hour drive from Dallas and worth every second. We would go out there many times to camp and fish and just get away from the big city.

Christmas in Cancun with the Paso parents. What could be better than deep-sea fishing, snorkeling and laying out in the sun while everyone was freezing back home.
The ALL STAR GAME came to Dallas!!





Days before Lehi's Birthday the all star game came to town. What better gift to give a Hockey Fan than tickets to the skills competion and the all-star game. Everywhere he looked there was some famous hockey guy that he pointed out to me. From meeting Ron McClane the Hockey Night in Canada legend along with Kelly Hrudy and even getting a chance to meet and take pictures with Evgeni Malkin. We got to see all the stars from to Sid the Kid and Alex Ovechkin at their first all-star game and my personal favourite Martin Brodure. I don't know how to top this one for the next year!!

Congragulations Lehi on craming 4 years of school into three straight years without any breaks except a week or two between trimesters, when you would have to study for boards. I couldn't be more proud of you and what you have accomplished for our family thanks for working so hard. No one can ever take away the fact that you are a Dr. and I think that's pretty awesome!!

Family reunnion with Lehi's family on a 7 day cruise.....thanks Dad for making that happen for everyone, the R and R was much much needed. We had a few days before the cruise set sail that we were able to see Disney land, Sea World and the guys saw a NFL football game. The Cruise left from California and took us to Puerta Vallerta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas.



At the Texas Motor Speedway "if your not first your last" thanks Ricky Bobby. We got tickets from our good friends the Nagle's and pit passes which I guess if you are a Nascar fan it's like a golden ticket. To me it was just a bunch of tires, tools and a travelling trailer park. I mean if your into camo its the place to be, its all camo all the time. Sorry Nascar you haven't made a fan out of me yet, but it was a fun experience nonetheless.


Even though we were in Dallas and never had real snow we still had some opportunities to get some much needed snowboarding, a day at Brians Head was tons of fun....we just need to go more than once a year how else can I perfect my skills.






American Thanksgiving.....we clebrated with deep fried turkey (we are in the south), green bean casserole and all the fix'ns. The Funny thing was most of the people there were Canadians, oh well who can say no to two Thanksgivings one in october and the other in November.

Lehi's first salmon fishing trip and definatly not the last, within his first hour out on the river he hooked into a big fish, probably bigger than the one I caught earlier that day...good thing the fish helped me out and got away.....maybe next time. Anyone who knows my family knows that salmon fishing in Terrace BC is an annual family event!!



Houston we have a problem.....at the Houston Space Center
