Zabiran's are in

We'll be there with our desserts. Nuff said.

Before you respond...

There is a way to foil you all.

Jill, we'll take your kind offer.

Sue, we'll be there early. We have to leave right after to get to the condo.

You will just have to take my word for it that I am twirling my moustache right now.

July 1 Reply

I have a proposition that could make it more comfortable for those hesitant to respond -- Steve had requested early access to the condo in Canmore (ie:  July 1).  I had told him in no uncertain terms he could not come early (always trying to push the limits, isn't he).  However, if I were to offer him the opportunity to be in Canmore on July 1, the rest of us could feel at ease confirming back to Sue, knowing Steve will NOT be at the brunch.

With that in mind, Steve, it seems the condo will be open July 1 after all.

Sue, the Munks (Ironman Trevor included) would be delighted to attend.

Cheerio!  Jill

We'll be there with our Schwartzie's Hashbrowns (husband negligible-still negotiating with clients).  Have a nice long weekend everyone!

Canmore June 13,14,15

It appears we will not be able to take advantage of the condo this weekend, so it is available. The only issue is we have not got Ricardo to clean it. We did wash the bedding  - but did not vacuum.

We will try to get him in before the weekend - so let us know if you can get up there.

Thanks & Regards,

GM

So...

It seems now that we all know that Steve and Tina are going to try to crash the party, everyone is fairly quiet on the subject.  The Ross family is unable to commit wholeheartedly this early, Darren will be working some of those days, and our kids are still playing soccer, so if plans are made and we can make it, we would be delighted (even if S & T are there) :)

Nice!

Nice try, Robin, but we've learned our lesson about letting people know when we will be out of town. You'll just have to plan this not knowing whether or not if we can attend.

Also, the I'm-sorry-didn't-you-get-the-email-about-the-last-minute-change-in-venue tactic won't work either. We're going to follow one of you.

Dianna & Gord can handle June 28/29 or July 1. We cannot devote much more time, since Dianna is saving up her vacation days for our Europe trip in the fall. So, although Elkford sounds wonderful, we cannot travel that far this year. We are game for anything within a couple hours drive. Thank you Sue & Miles for the offer, and for handling the process so far.

We still have not figured out if Steve & Tina will be otherwise engaged - so let's stay on top of this!

Gord (& Dianna)

Wait a Minute

Hold your horses little lady - don't we need to wait and confirm that Steve and Tina will be in Canmore or Vegas or something before we go making any family plans???

Canada Day party

Hey there everyone -- I wanted to follow up from Sue's message re: July 1 party (or some date near there).  In some conversations it has been noted Elkford would be very far (although beautiful).  

What about a day at Sylvan Lake water slides?  Or a car rally (since fuel is so affordable), or a bike scavenger hunt through the river valley. . .  

My bigger concern/question is the date any such event might be held.  We have relatives from Europe (Trev's) coming and we would plan our itinerary with them around the family thing:  Trevor would love to see you all, and they'd love a day at West Edmonton Mall.  

I'm wondering if the weekend before would be a good option (June 28/29) -- the following weekend is Stampede, so we thought we'd take the Danes to the rodeo and eat pancake breakfasts (July 5/6).

Please comment on your availability and/or activity desires so Sue and Miles can confirm if they are still game to do the plan.

Cheers,

Jill
