Brush up on your math: 1+1=3

Attention family members,
Suzie and Calorado would like to share some pictures with you...
Can you guess our news?
On May 19th 2014, a permanent guest will be joining us in our new home. 


The ring on the left did not come in time for the proposal in Mexico. Calorado, with the help of his mother and father and family to be, was looking for a replacement ring in the Calgary airport. The one on the right is the ring that Calorado and his mother and father stumbled upon. The next day, Suzie passed by the store the ring was displayed in. She pointed at the exact ring that had already been purchased as a replacement, and said (jokingly!) "If you want to marry me, you're going to have to buy me a diamond that big!" This brought a smile to Calorado's face.  And on November 4, in Mexico on the beach under the night sky, Suzie said yes.




At this time, Calorado has started a new job apprenticing as an electrician for Tarpon Energy Services while continuing to pursue a career as a Fire Fighter. He works in his free time at the County of Grande Prairie as a paid on-call Fire Fighter. 
Suzie is still working in the Intensive Care Unit in Grande Prairie.  Luckily, she has had no morning sickness, just an abundance of fatigue and narcolepsy on her night shifts. She will continue working as long as possible until the time comes for Baby to arrive.

We are pleased and anxiously awaiting the date for the second ring!
Actually - there will be three babies at the reunion: Christina in February, Susie in May and Addie in June!! Numbers 22,23 & 24 = I think I'm counting correctly. An even two dozen! So much fun!

Love,
