Ruby Tuesday for Jan. 3rd 2011/ Ruby Tuesday pour le 3 janvier 2011

My Daughter and her boy friend came for a visit during Christmas, and here are a few pics. Also here is my other little girl Asia the Shih-Tzu
Ma fille et son petit ami est venu pour une visite à Noël, et voici quelques photos. Également dans ce pic est mon autre petite fille en Asia du Shih-Tzu.

She was here for her birthday and traveled here from Halifax, Nova Scotia.
Elle était là pour son anniversaire et est venu ici de Halifax, Nouvelle-Écosse.

Of course we had dinner as well. It was really good and my daughter helped me with it ~!!!!!
Bien sûr, nous avons dîné ainsi. Il était vraiment bon et ma fille m'a aidé avec elle ~!!!!!

Her better half serves our Great Nation in the Navy, out of Halifax. He is on the HMCS Athabaskan.

This is the Badge for the HMCS Athabaskan. I served on her myself in 1981 and threw to 1982

  1. Your daughter is lovely, I'm sure it was a treat to be able to celebrate her birthday together and how cool that you and her boyfriend both served on the same ship.

  6. You have a beautiful daughter. It's a good thing that you can celebrate together. Like Terry says, she must love you much, to travel this far.
    I also admire the tastefully set table (in Canada's colors, red and white).

    Hope the forth guest also had a good time.
    HMCS Athabaskan is a proud Lady.
    How special is that, both you and your daughter's friend have served at the same ship.

  8. Sorry bout that test comment. You can delete it. I had trouble leaving a comment in the usual way. Not sure why, but google doesn't allow me to leave comments on some blogs. A few people say it's because of the "embedded below the post" comments format. Who knows. In any event, I'm glad I found a way around it this time.

    The highlight of my holidays was a visit from my younger daughter, though she is closer by in Boston. They continue to light up our lives, don't they? She is a lovely girl.

    Happy new year to you and thanks for the blog visit!
