Yeah, a little too late for it but I am going to have a re-cap anyways.The year started with a bang with the birth of Ben in January, one year ago today, my water broke and I was spending the night in the hospital trying to get my body ready for birth, it wasnt till almost 2 days later the boy was born. It was bitter sweet, sweet to finally meet my little man but bitter that I didnt get my VBAC and I will not deliver at that hospital again.
We did a ton of traveling in 2008. Looking back, we were gone a total of 8 times last year I think, and we paid for only 2 trips. It was also the first time we had to pay for Ava.It was also the year we acquire a dog, I saw my very first polar bear (though it was half way being skinned but still) and ate bear meat.There are a ton more things that happened in 2008 but I think thats the highlight.
And today, I learned that Frank is a big David Bowie fan. I think maybe only Canadians know that I am talking about next. Lincoln Canada has this song for their new MKS commercial and I’ve been wanting to google and see who sings that song, well right off the bat, Frank said, its a cover, the original singer is David Bowie, Space Oddity..wow..Frank is old..haha cause I sure have not heard that song till I saw that commercial.


Hey Aida! I’ve been looking forward to your call – I guess things have gotten busy for you! When do you head back to Arviat?
I’m working in a classroom of grade four students who are studying Nunuvut for the next couple months and I wondered if you would like to be a resource for the students. It may mean they send you a list of questions about it’s like to live there that you can respond to or letters they send to you – I’m not sure yet. I wanted to check with you first to see if you’d be interested.
Happy New Years to you and your family! Dianna
