Winter Update

Long Time no post - just to update you all - have had very eventful and snowy winter - and have pics to prove it. Other news includes: Jared has his drivers license, he is going to the University of Guelph in the fall and he had the staring role in his schools play. Max has made at triple A Baseball team, the school soccer team and he has had one of his poems published in a book called Urban Voices. Never a dull moment.

Spain and England

Well we are back from our trip to Spain and England and what a trip it was. Complete with all the usual Bishop hiccups including a flooded villa (which we like to call the indoor pool), inopertune (I am sure that is not spelled right) power outages, forgetting to book a car and planes that leave at 1:15 am instead of 1:15 pm (good thing we checked, no wonder it was cheap). Flooding seems to be a theme with our vacations, just as the Bongellis and the Meloffs about last year's Virginia Beach vacation. Oh well, it all adds to the fun.

As promised pictures, once I figure out how to add them to the Blog. I apologize to all re the pictures with me in a bikini - the three day diet before the trip did not work Warren!!!!

The first two are at my Aunt and Uncle 25th Wedding anniversary party. Gary and I were actually best man and maid of honour at their wedding as they eloped to Canada. The tshirts they are wearing were made by Jared.These pictures might be a little boring for those non-family members viewing, but we are a handsome family!! For those of you who remember that little baby that attended my wedding - 19 years ago yesterday - that is him posing with his girlfriend of two year India - my how time flies.

I think I will publish this post now - see what it looks like and then add some more - so bear with me.

The best of Spain!!
