Special Weekend!!

This past weekend was so great!! I was able to go home and spend time with all of my family. Lindsay, Becky and I drove down on Thursday night and missed the crazy winter storm on Friday which was a relief. Unfortunately Kristi and Jared had to drive right through it on Friday afternoon, but they made it safe and sound. Even though it was a crazy time to be on the roads and the weather wasn't the best I was still able to have such a special time on Saturday morning as I was able to go to the temple for the first time. I couldn't have been happier with how things turned out and feel good about this decision that I made!! Life couldn't be better. Having all my family there made it that much more special and I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. I appreciate all of them for making the trip to share this time with me. I also was blessed to have Lindsay there...she has been such a great friend to me and is always there when I need a listening ear!! I missed you Tanya, but realize the roads were not in the best shape. I guess that's what we get for living in Alberta.

Winter Wonderland!!

Does this look like a winter wonderland to you?? This is pretty much what my commute to work looked like this morning...everyone driving like a bunch of idiots and nothing pretty about this. This is why I hate winter and can't wait for Spring to get here already. We have been really lucky to have nice weather up until now, but I'm already done!! If the city actually did something about the roads it might be a little bit better. On the radio this morning they were talking about fining people who don't shovel their sidewalks within 48hours and to that I say then you better plow the roads. Oh the joys of winter in Edmonton!!

Found It!!

I found this dress last night for Lucy and I think that it will work perfect for family pictures. Amy may have to change the color of the bow, but I think that it was quite the find.

P.S. I'm Not Japanese

Amy might be the only one that will fully understand how funny this really is!! I went on a blind date the end of the summer and had a good time. There certainly weren't any magical sparks, but it is always fun to get to know new people and do something different. His view on the date was "she's really cute, really nice, but....she's not Japanese!!" Where do these guys come from??

As caucasian as they come!!

Best Medicine

Lately I've been feeling a little down and out, but last night I was able to go to an amazing show that made me feel 100% better. I was able to go see Carrie Underwood where Little Big Town opened the show. I wasn't the biggest fan of LBT...they have a couple good songs, but for the most party I just wanted Carrie to get the show started. The crowd went wild when she came out on stage and she is even more gorgeous in person and her voice is literally amazing. She's got such strong vocals and put on a great show.

Twilighted

I've been hearing a lot of smack about the movie, but I actually enjoyed it. Yes it was a bit cheezy and juvenile but you couldn't really expect anything but that especially since it is a vampire love story and the characters are 17 years old. I went it with no expectations and came away with a smile on my face. Thanks for a fun evening ladies!!

It's Black, It's White

On Friday night I hosted a Black and White party in which the whole purpose of the event was for everything to be black and white. I think that it turned out pretty darn good. The decor turned out exactly how I envisioned and thanks to the help from my good friend Lindsay who helped make it all look fabulous. It was fun to do something a little bit different and I hope everyone had a good time!! Amy...I think that I should move down to Utah and we can be party planners together. Either that or Lindsay...let's get something going!!

Another Happy Birthday!!

Ayden Thomas is 6 today...Happy Birthday little man!!

Last night as I was over at my sisters place Ayden made it quite clear that he didn't want any clothes for his birthday this year...only Wally stuff. Too bad I already have his present and everyone knows what Aunt Suz gives and that is clothes!! Love you Ayden

Mya Jane

Wishing my little Mya Jane a Happy 4th Birthday!!

I love you Mya and think you're sweet, spunky, creative, adorable, and the best cuddler around. You make me so happy!!

SANTA BABY!!

I've been kind of a bad girl this year, so I don't know if Santa is even going to come visit me. Here is what I would like him to bring me if he decides to grace me with his presence...

#1

#2#3

#4

Last but not least #5...he doesn't even have to look exactly like this, but one that knows how to treat a lady and is genuine and sincere would come in really handy!!
