Cookie Baking Time

Would December 4th work for everyone to bake christmas cookies? What is your favourite kind?

Calendar Time!

I'm going to have to order Grandma's calendar very soon to have it arrive in time for Christmas. Please send me your pictures as soon as you're able. Each family gets 3 pictures.

You can save them to a CD and give it to us or try to e-mail, but our internet is slow, so I'd prefer a CD or USB if possible.

Also, Susan, can you e-mail me the family picture from the wedding as well? The one at the bottom of the stairs with the boys, please. That's what we're going to use for the cover. Thanks!

Annual Braun Formal Dinner

WOW Mom...another elegant dinner & fun with the family

Such an exciting October...can Nov. beat this

How about the Annual Formal Dinner & Christmas

When
Time

Will we be discussing Christmas at the Dinner?

One Year Today

One year ago we purchased our home, seems to have gone by slow, but yet a year is gone.

Since then we grew some trees, planted rose bushes, a garden, and renovated the basement.

Through the winter we hope to finish the bathroom, paint the livingroom and enjoy the wintery days to come in our cozy home with family and friends.

Beautiful Thanksgiving!!

What a night! So restless.....could it have been the turkey? Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Quick Question...

I have a friend of a friend from out of town that's getting married here next year and they asked if I knew any good photographers/florists/bakers/etc. Susan, could you tell me the names of the people you and Jason had for your wedding? Thanks a bunch!

Well Sept. is almost on it's way out...what will Oct. bring????

A new baby

Time change
And OF course Thanksgiving

What can you think of????

Happy Birthday Dad

WOW... the life in you shows right here, we love you

Juice for Jam

Just to let you know Ashleigh, I measured for 5 batches of juice plus 1 cup. Seeing Dad doesn't read this, I can tell you about it. See you on Tuesday!

HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR JONATHON,

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Birthdays for the Men of September?

Have we set a date for the Men of September's birthdays yet? I'd like to be able to schedule it in before everything fills up.

Ryan's bday wishlist...

So, if it would at all be possible...ryan would like one thing and one thing only...gift cert's for the Running Room. He is saving up to buy a running watch. If you have already bought him something don't worry about it. Or if you can't get there don't worry about it either. he is easy to please and would also be happy with gift cert's to home depot or Rona. The Running Room is on Pembina if you are wondering...in the south end.

I think it's time to do some shopping!

We had spoken about going shopping in September for our birthdays. Since Susan works during the week, and I work every other weekend our dates are narrowed down significantly. The 2 Saturdays that would potentially work are Sept 12 and Sept 26. Let's hash this out! Amanda and I will be running out of clothes to wear very shortly!

Gift List

hey all. for those of you i haven't yet given my gift list to, i would like gift certificate(s) to sportchek because i am in serious need of some new volleyball shoes. thanks!!

A Baby Shower

Just a few questions regarding the shower What should the time be on the 22nd? What kind of food? I thought about picking up some desserts at Doeners. Whos all coming? From my side Tthe usual(David & Lia, her cousin Sandy,maybe her mom, Nathan & Reesh, Tamara,us) Um is grandma coming or any of the Doerksen side? Or anyone else? ok I think that's all the questions for now

,

Birthday Party!

Susan, how are the plans coming for Tamara'a party? Do you have a time in mind and how many and who are you inviting? Give me a call re details.

Strawberries?

Hi! Is anyone interested in going to pick strawberries this week before they're done?

What are the hours of the place that we usually go? I don't even know what it's called, so I can't call them.

I was thinking Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday this week. Anybody else want to come?

FUN IN THE SUMMER SUN!!

WHAT A LITTLE TIGER!!!

Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad

WE LOVE YOU BOTH

Congratulations Amanda & Kim

More Parties!

Great Fathers Day celebration! Thinking about the next birthday party/celebration.....would it be possible to do Susan and Jason's party on the same day and invite her family as well? I was thinking that maybe Sunday the 5th of July would work the best for us. Any problems?

Father's Day

So I thought I'd get the ball rolling on our Father's day get together. We have a wedding to go to on the Sunday and so we were thinking perhaps Saturday June 20th would work. What works for you guys?

Sunday's party

Just want to let everyone know the party is still on, but if it works for everyone to have it at 6 instead. We would like to take the boys to the air show and make it back in plenty of time. Let me know if this is still ok for everyone. Thanks

2 birthday's coming soon

We are thinking June 7th Sunday, 4pm for a weiner roast here, for Josh and Triston. So let me know if that day works.

It really is officially official now...

The Spa Evening is May 20th, Wed, from 5:30-9 @ Laura's in Steinbach. Jayne will be there from 6:30-9. Ordering pizza sounds great. We will figure out any other details when we get together for Mother's Day? YAY!!!! SPA!!!!

I am wondering about our Easter get-together. This coming Monday evening doesn't work for Jonathan? Does the following Monday evening work for everyone? or would you rather wait until the weekend following that?

WOO-HOO camp Arnes and then holidays

Thank you from Jason & Susan Braun

We're extremely blessed by all of our family and friends sharing our great day. Thank you to all of you in making it the very best day ever.

And I especially want to say thank you to you Vince for being our emcee, it meant a lot to the both of us. And Ashley I am blown away by your help at the wedding, I have never felt so pampered it was awesome to have you there as my bridesmaid, thank you.

Kim and Amanda you made my whole day when you welcomed me into the family after the ceremony and your singing and playing with Ashleigh was so beautiful I would love to have the words to the song to put in my scrapbook, thank you.

Mom and dad I will never forget, nor have words to say thank you, how you touched my heart that night, God truly blessed the two of you.

Jonathan it was the best, thanks so much, and Ryan thank you again family is the greatest thing.

WHAT A PARTY!!!!!!

The celebration was absolutely wonderful. Thanks to all who made Jason & Susan's day special! We literally danced the night away. Love each and every one of you!

I have two wedding related questions ....

#2 Does anyone know when the bridesmaid dresses are supposed to arrive? If not I'll call them and get an update. I just wanted to know if someone else knew first.

That's all for now. See you Sunday!
