Blogger Challenge Day 2

Day 2 : Post a recent picture of you and your friends...

Well, since I haven't been around all of my friends together in so long I don't have a recent picture of us! So here is the most recent picture of me and a friend.

Meagan and I have been friends since Kindergarten.  I love that I have a friend that I've known for so long. We have memories lasting from those early Kindergarten days, through elementary, junior high, high school, college and beyond! She isn't only the friend I've known the longest but we've been through a lot together and she has always been there for me! She even came to visit just a month after we moved here to Canada! I love her and am lucky to have a friend like her in my life. 

Blogger Challenge

I decided to do the blogger challenge which gives you topics to blog about for 10 days! Here goes!

Day 1 : Post a recent picture of yourself and 15 interesting facts about yourself.

1.  I have never been skiing and am looking forward to it this winter!

2.  I love dogs and would have several a few adopted strays if my husband wouldn't kick me out. = )

3.  I love hiking.

4.  I want to be on Amazing Race sooo badly, but not with my husband(we'd kill each other), with my dad. I think we'd be a great team!

5.  My husband and I met in college and were really good friends for a year before we started dating. I made him wait. = )

6.  I love Halloween but HATE scary stuff. You couldn't drag me to a haunted house. No way no how.

7.  I cannot wait to be a mom. I can't wait to get back to Texas and have babies!

8.  I LOVE to shop! (Who doesn't?) BUT I only bargain shop, this girl is not paying full price when it will be on sale in 2 weeks. I know, I get it from my momma.

9.  I love reality tv. LOVE it.

10.  I want to will go to a Bon Jovi concert before I die.

11.  I could live on Mexican food...real mexican food...and miss it SOOO MUCH.

12.  I love my dog more than most people do their children(kidding!).  But if I can love my dog this much, I can't wait to have children. = )

13.  I have always wanted to go to Bora Bora and hopefully will some day!

14.  Friends is and always will be my favorite show.

15.  I am deathly afraid of bugs. All bugs. Even June bugs.

Our First Snow

We had our first snow on my birthday!  I loved seeing everything covered in white! It has been COLD though, especially for this Texas girl!! Today it is 18 degrees! Well unlike Texas snow, (where it melts pretty quickly) we have had snow on the ground for a few days now! Chester wasn't suire about it at first but he LOVES it! However, after about 10 minutes he is ready to go inside! He has a sweater but we need to get him a jacket and some boots. We bought him some boots last night but they're a little small so we have to exchange them. And Kyle and I also had a snowball fight. (I won!) I love how everything looks covered in snow...so magical! I wish I would've had my camera last night when we were running around because the trees were so pretty covered in snow! Next time we go out I will definitely get some pictures around town. Here's the pictures I did take!



He loved running around in it!

"C'mon y'all this is fun!"

Even snow doesn't stop him from digging!

 He was cracking us up running around on the deck and sliding everywhere!

It has been beautiful these past few days! But I'm not gonna lie us Texas folks have been COLD! I don't know what we're gonna do when it's 40 below zero! = )

Birthday Celebration

This past Friday night a group of us went out to celebrate mine and Crystal's birthdays. We celebrated then because I knew Meagan would be here and I wanted her to be there!  We went to dinner at Earl's and then headed to The Red Piano, a dueling piano bar. It was a lot of fun!

Happy Birthday to us! : )

It was such a fun night! And I'm soo happy that Meagan was there to celebrate my birthday with me!!



Our First Visitor

Our first visitor! I was sooo excited for my childhood best friend Meagan to come visit us! I had been looking forward to her coming for over a month! I couldn't wait to have some time with one of my besties! We picked her up from the airport on a Monday night and we spent that night drinking some wine and catching up! Tuesday we went shopping at West Edmonton mall (the big one!) and went to lunch! Wednesday we slept in, watched our favorite show Friends that we used to always watch in middle school and high school and then went to lunch and went and got some pedicures! We baked a yummy dessert and cooked dinner. Thursday we went hiking at Elk Island National Park. Here are some pictures from our day of hiking...



The hike we went on was really pretty! On Friday we went shopping with my friend Crystal{yes, AGAIN!} and bought outfits for mine and Crystal's birthday celebration! Friday night, a group of us went out to dinner at Earl's and then to a piano bar called The Red Piano, it was a blast!! I have lots of pictures from that night that I will put on another post later.

I really enjoyed having Meagan here, it was like old times! Even if we were just talking and watching Friends, it was exactly what I needed!! I am so happy that she came to visit and loved having her. It was a wonderful week!!

Meagan Flynn, thank you for coming to visit, I had such a good time and loved loved loved having you here! Come back soon! : ) I love you!!
