In which Amanda freaks out because Bev doesn't post often enough

Well, I used to be a faithful blogger but then along came a boy that thought I was pretty and I got a little distracted...
Haha, please forgive me, my faithful-readers -that-are-no-longer-faithful-because-I-don't-blog-often-enough. So life has been pretty sweet the last month or so. Joseph has been moving into his new place so that has kept us busy in the evenings... when I'm not working, which always seems to be at the most inconvenient times.
Jonny came home on Saturday... Elsie is the most thrilled of all of us I think!!! Got to see some great pics and all kinds of treasures that he brought back... thanks for my Tikal rock, Jon... good game last night by the way. Would just like to mention that I almost kicked a Dutch boy's butt in DUTCH blitz and did win the most rounds... who's the Dutch one now!?!? Jon gave a valiant effort for not being Dutch or a good multi-tasker!
Sunday we had a going away party for Heidi... who, I just realized, left sometime today... happy graduation!
I would like to state for the record that I have survived my first Laird family function ie. Easter dinner. They said they went easy on me, but I did keep Joe and Grant close as my buffer zones!!! It was fun, but cut short because I had to head home for a nap before work... again working at inconvenient times! They also said I was quiet but it was more like I couldn't get a word in edgewise!!! Good times, good times!
What else is new? Well, I never see my Chapler friends becasue I work EVERY friggin Thurs... I promise it will get better in May... I hope!
Gotta jet... maybe I'll blog again sometime... it's kinda neat!

World, meet Joe.. Joe, meet world!
He's a happy fellow and I LIKE HIM!!! 

Off the Market

Yes, it is indeed true, Bev Clarke is officially off the market! My deepest regrets to all the eligable bachlors out there (ie. Luke DeWinter!!!) who were hoping to get their chance... I AM NO LONGER SINGLE!!! Yeah, I'm a bit excited!
So for all my fellow Ontarionians (and my brothers in Switzerland!), I'm dating Joseph Bondt... most of you probably don't know him but you may have heard of his infamous brother and sister-in-law Isaiah and Isabelle Bondt. We've been going out for 2 weeks now and it's been GREAT! Sorry I haven't posted sooner but the whole cookies issue really put a damper on things.
Here's some stats on Joe... since I know you're all dying to know!
He's exactly 3 years younger (22) we share the same b-day!
He's 6' tall (my minimum requirement!)
Dark hair, green eyes (boo yeah!)
Darn cute!!!
Ex-farm boy, now is a district manager for Subway Restuarants.
And of course, he loves Jesus (wouldn't go for anyone that didn't)
And in certain ways remindes me of my dad (scary!!!)
Oh yeah, and he just bought a house, duplex to be exact... he's has a good business mind.
FYI... Beich... we were NOT on a date yesterday at Smitty's, we were there strictly for the fundraiser dinner... nothing romantic about that friend!!! Hahaha!
Well, that's it for now... so happy to have my cookies inabled again!!! Talking to you soon!
