Happy Birthday Hannah Banana!

This is Hannah Joy Gilbraith! My “Gangsta” Friend, who never fails to make me laugh!!!

So, Today July SIXTH, 2008, as my post, I am going to share my favorite “Hannah Joy” memory, in honor of her birthday! <3

So, i can’t remember when exactly this was, but one evening the Gilbraith’s were having a party and for w/e reason, Buffy, Hannah & I decided to sneak out. Our plan was to make a full circle of the house and so we exited the back door and the adventure began. :D To get past the side, kitchen window, we realized that we would have to get down on our knees and arm crawl across the grass. To us, the idea was a brilliant one!

In the pitch black back yard, Buffy, Hannah & I processed to crawl across the lawn. After we finished laughing and crossing the grass, Hannah looked down at her white board shorts and she gasped! “Guys! Look! I think I rolled in dog poop!” She had! Her white shorts had a HUGE dog poop spot on them!!!

Haha! Thanks Hannah for helping me create so many awesome memories! And Thx for still being my friend, even though I have an obnoxious laugh! lol ily Girl!

Happy Birthday! <3

Bags For ZaZa!

Here’s me modeling one of the extremely cute bags! XoXo

Hey Everybody! I just wanted to keep u updated on what’s happening with “Bags For ZaZa!” Well, first of all, for all you guys who don’t know what “Bags For ZaZa” is, it all started with my family deciding to adopt a little girl from Colombia. We didn’t know her name yet, and not wanting to call her “The Little Girl” or anything, my Auntie Jennie came up with the name “ZaZa” to call her. And it just stuck.

So, the adoption process continued and wanting to help “Bring ZaZa home!” my Auntie Jennie started sewing bags made out of scraps, left over material, and donated material. The bags started off selling for $25 each but due to high demand, we have started auctioning them off instead. Highest Bidder wins! :D

So, now every Monday morning the 5 new bags go up, and it goes “5 bags for 5 days!”

Check out: BagsForZaZa.blogspot.com!!!

Have fun bidding & thanks to all of u who bought a bag and partnered with us, to help bring ZaZa home!!!!!!

“Good day, EH! And Welcome to The Great White North!”

 

Bob & Doug Mackenzie

“The Two Greatest Canadians Ever!” lol

Alright, why the heck are Bob and Doug McKenzie featured in Larisa’s blog today? or Who are these stupid guys anyways? You may be asking yourself one or more of theses ?s. Well, it just so happens that today, July FIRST, is Canada Day! Oh Canada! My home and native land! True patriot love, in all our sons command! With glowing hearts, We see thee rise. The true nor strong and free! From far and wide, Oh Canada! We stand on guard for thee!  Ok, ok, forgive me. My Canadian blood shows through now and then. =)

Since the topic today is Canada and Canadians, we are going to talk about “Bob & Doug McKenzie”! (haha, my mom wrote on her blog, a Canadian history lesson!) Nope, we are going to waste time taking about these 2 TV Show hosts!

* Ok, first of all “Bob & Doug” weren’t even their real names and they weren’t even real brothers! They started a very amusing TV show which featured them (as brothers who just sat around all day talking about beer & back bacon) and the show took THREE seasons before the show hit the BIG leagues. CBC (a Canadian broadcaster) picked them up and “Bob & Doug” became a sensation! These Hosers were famous before they even knew it!

* “Bob” was played by Rick Moranis & “Doug” was played by Dave Thomas.

* Their Canadian voices were featured on Disney’s Movie ”Brother Bear”. (They played the moose, Rutt & Tuke!) 

See for yourself what great quality the show “The Great White North” was: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-llwCUTdQM

Hope you enjoyed that! haha! Major lolz!

Have a GREAT Canada Day! And take off you Hoser!
