Happy 40th Mark

Image
By
Folks,

It's Mark Bochsler's 40th birthday today, so I was hoping we could all join in and sing him Happy Birthday - only to let him know just how much we love him I thought we could do it in rounds.

I'll start and when I get to the "Happy birthday dear Mark" part someone else from this side of the continent can join in. Then let's just work our way west until Fred Ford belts out the last verse.

Here we go...

Now Pat wait a minute... what about David? Wouldn't he be last? There should be a loooonnnngggg pause and then David would continue.
You never did study geography...tsk, tsk, tsk.
Now about that blog entry with your lovely family...

Happy Birthday Mark, Wow 40 and gettin' hitched. Next it will be 50 and having kids then 60 and buying a car... You have a nice relaxed approach to things.

I hadn't forgotten about Dave, I just made an executive decision to keep the singing within the boundaries of this continent.

I mean really, it's a simple round of Happy Birthday; there's no point in making things complicated...

I'm lost for words.....oh are we starting on 3 or 1. Please make it clear and does starting on one include everyone on the continent at the same time or are we going by time change..does that actually affect the count or not.

Happy Birthday Mark. I think I'm singing all by myself!!!

Bochsler Family Update

By
Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...

Remembering Sean

By
The remaining Barrys. This picture was taken at Sean's funeral. Sean's absence is definitely felt. The last time I saw Sean, was about a year ago, the end of March '06. My husband, Brian and I showed up unannounced at his place and he graciously entertained us. If he had other plans, he never mentioned them. My brother, Brian has a pub in Camrose, AB. Sean apparently would stop in daily and drink coffee, wanting to stay in touch. Brian had a new year's eve party a couple of month previous, so I asked Sean if he'd gone. He said no, he'd quit drinking and realized that a new years eve party would probably not be conducive to achieving his goals. He'd also recently quit smoking. I remember thinking that was a lot to give up all at once, but of course didn't want to say anything to discourage him. Sean also had a dream to buy himself all new camping gear and go on a camping trip. This he did at the end of the summer. After achieving his goals, his heart gave...
