'Un'safe road hazard!

I feel the need to apologize to all the drivers out there who feel that I'm an 'un'safe road hazard.

1. I'm sorry that I honked at you, it was completely my fault you felt the need to pull right out in front of me!

2. I'm sorry I'm not going fast enough, go ahead and speed to the next red light. I'll meet you there!

3. I'm sorry to inconvience you when I have the 'right of way' to turn left onto a service road. I should kneel at your feet with gratitude.

4. I'm sorry I didn't yield to you turning left while I was going straight through an intersection. How careless of me!

5. I'm sorry I'm merging onto the highway right beside you. Please don't worry about making room, I'm sure I'll fit between you and that semi!

6. I'm sorry I'm only going 15 kilometers over the speed limit. Feel free to pass me while waving the finger, I deserve it!

And on a more serious note:

I'm sorry I didn't see you and DID almost drive out in front of you. Feel free to stop, hold up traffic and cuss me out, because I'm sure you've NEVER done anything like that before!!

I must need to take driver's ed all over again...

Drive safe everyone!

Happy Easter, BABY!!!

So, again... we forgot our camera! You would think that by placing it by the door you would remember to take it with you... NOPE!
Anyway, Friday morning Colin, Brant and I went to the Calgary Zoo, and met up with some friends there. It was fun! Brant called every animal he saw a puppy, even after telling him that that large grizzly puppy could take his head off.
After the zoo we drove the 3 1/2 hours to Oyen, Alberta. My Great-Uncle and Aunt bought a home out there and completely renovated it and wanted everyone out for Easter dinner before they sold it.
We felt kind of odd out there on this Easter weekend, what with it being General Conference and all. We missed out completely on all 4 sessions, and Colin mentioned he didn't think he had ever missed a Priesthood session before. But, thanks to modern technology, we will be able to catch up on all we missed over this next week.
It's also was a bit of a dissappointing Easter for Brant. Not that he knew anyways! But I guess the Easter Bunny will have to come back tomorrow! Colin and I kind of dropped the ball on that one! My Grandmother had sent Brant a little dark chocolate Easter Bunny but we totally forgot! I'm thinkin I'll head out to Walmart tomorrow and find him a few goodies and then take pictures of memories sake.
We did have a little bit of exciting news... all 6 pounds 14 ounces of it! My aunt had her baby girl on Saturday. We had a phone call around 3:30 saying her water broke and she was off to the hospital. Then not even 3 hrs later, at 6:15 we had a phone call telling us little Claire Alison was born. We were all so excited and recieved pictures of her right away! (Again, thanks to modern technology!)
This trip was fun and good for us, considering with Colin's job and school I never really get to see him, or have a day where there is nothing on our agenda. But as always, trips are nice to think about, but end up being more stressful than you anticipate! We are happy to be home and sleep in our own beds.
Hope everyone had a happy Easter, and enjoyed Conference.
