k34: Fellow Owen Sounder? O.O Wow. Small world! Depending on your age, I might have gone to school with you!

Oh sorry... was in Chicago for turkey day so I just saw this now.

Yeah it is a small world! I find I run into Owen Sounders pretty much everywhere!

I went to OSCVI from '89 to '92, then St. Mary's in '93.

My husband works at UPS, so he's basically banned from taking time off around this time of year. Maybe in a couple of years, if things change, we'll be able to head back to Vancouver and the (lack of) snow. My family traditionally does an informal get-together on Christmas Eve; we have a Secret Santa to ease the stress of buying gifts for everyone, and we eat potluck turkey dinner and drink tons of wine and whiskey and play charades. Christmas Day is recovery :lol:

Nini - Vancouver BC, Canada (she's the one who does the forum thing)

Bee - Devon PA, USA (he's the one who gave her the shiny ring)

Getting our sanity tested by bureaucracy since 2007.

Here we go again...

Removal of conditions @ VSC

9/4/2010 - sent!

9/14/2010 - NOA

Ohh a vj Canadian meet up! That sounds like FUN!! I would totally be up for that!

woohoo! danforth dinner and wine perhaps? Anybody whos going to be in the TO area around then is definitely welcome :)

I will swing up there to TO if you guys do it..as long as the weather is okay.

Darnit! I totally would have been up for that if I was back home for Christmas.

so my brother and his wife and my nephew are for sure coming for Christmas :dance: they are going to drive down to Seattle and fly to LA from there.. their tickets cost about 400 bucks for the both of them... They are getting here on the 23rd and leaving on the 31st..

Awwww. That is so nice for you, Marilyn. :)

I have family in Midland...lol..seems strange to see so small a town so well represented. :)

OMG, I know Midland too! Dock lunch anyone? :lol:

This year we will be in NC with the inlaws for Christmas. :( But my friends are coming for New Year's so that makes up for it! :dance:

Oh! So instead of going home for Christmas we are going back for Family Day in February! My family started a new annual tradition last year where everyone gets together and goes bowling. I've never been so excited about going bowling before. :lol:

Heeey dock lunch is in Penetang! Get it right!

Just pulling yer leg! I love the fact that they let you put gravy on your fries yourself, I have stood there at that gravy dispenser many a times trying to decide whether or not it would be a good idea to just stick my head under there and drink it. :lol:

But yea Midland, many great memories in that place! There was another girl on here from Midland but she doesn't come on any longer, in fact I worked with her mom at the Best Western. It certainly is a small world.

Donne moi une poptart!
