2010

So my the time we hit the next decade Andrew will be 15yrs old. I will be 52 and Don will be 65. Yikes. That sounds so old. lol. Ewww yuck..

So today is the first day of 2010. I think we'll watch the movie 2010, how fitting.

Last night we just stayed home and had a little party, just the 3 of us.. It was good. We played games, and watched a movie.

Today we went to the ROM (royal ont museum).. It was half price today. Then we went and got Andrew's and Don's favorite fries at the chip wagon on Queen St, by Nathan Phillips Square. It was CCCCCCCCOLD out side. Brrrr. It seems like the older i get the colder it feels.. Yuck again.

Thanks for the gift (you know who you are).. You gave us a nice family day.

Anyhoo, i will post some pics from the ROM and then i'm going to watch 2010.

Happy New Years.

This is the subway stop at the museum, it's awesome.


This picture freaks me on 2 levels. One, we are looking at someone that was has been dead for over 2000 yrs and somewhat well preserved. Two, Andrew's reflexion as he looks down at him. Andrew was in front of me, that's his hand there, but his head looks like it's behind the mummies head.


A mummified cat.


An older mummified woman, she's lived about 3000 yrs ago. This is before mummification became well advanced.


I love the new addition to the ROM, they have done a fantastic job on the architect.




And then came the dinosaurs,,, I must admit, i really enjoyed seeing that exhibit.










And then Andrew bacame a paliantalist for a wee while.


And then he got knighted.


And the ROM has some of the nicest rocks and minerals i have ever seen. This was the last exhibit we went into, and by then Andrew was getting tired and cranky. I really wished i could have stayed there longer but oh well, next time i will know to go there first.








What a great start for what's going to become the best year thus far...
