than watching your best friend get married to someone you know she really loves.
Congratulations Kelly and Rene!
What an awesome wedding! From the rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception the whole weekend went off without a hitch, it was so fun.
I did take lots of photos but here are only a few.
Love you Kelly. So thankful to be a part of your special day.
Yesterday Murray and I celebrated our 3rd anniversary. Nothing fancy but we did have a good day. Monday we went to see the latest Harry Potter as our 'just in case' anniversary, as in 'just in case Murray had to work late on our real anniversary' at least we did something. Turns out he did not have to work late on Tuesday night so we went out for dinner ( at our fav chinese food restaurant) and then went camera shopping. Why did we buy a new camera? Well our old one (which we both love) can be a little big sometimes to carry around so we invested in a cute little point and shoot (Canon Power Shot SD1000 Digital Elph). It's so cute!
I can't wait to really test it out at Kelly and Rene's wedding (only 3 more sleeps)!
Pictures from our new camera.
Happy Anniversary Murr
I love you with all I am.
Well actually we have been back for a week now but it took us that long to get adjusted and back to a regular schedule. It was such an amazing trip, so much to see and so many things to do. At the end of two weeks we were happy to come home but sad to leave just because it felt like there was so much more to see. Out of London, Paris, and Rome, Rome was our favorite city. We would love to have had two weeks just to visit all around Italy. This would like our teaser trip. We were bit by the travel bug for sure.
We took so many pictures on our trip. I have been procrastinating posting only because of the time it will take to create an album to share them with you. Here is a small sampling of our trip they are out of order but it was they best I could do.
Thanks to Krista and Andrew for taking such good care of our house
while we were away. Except for the cats and plants being alive and
healthy it really did not look like you guys lived here at all.
Remember you are welcome anytime.
Thats right we are off to Europe! Can you tell I am excited (and a little nervous)? We will try to post during the holiday but if we don't get a chance you can bet I will have pictures to post when we get back.
Happy Monday.
No, we are not finished landscaping the backyard yet. The cement is taking way longer than expected but hopefully it will be finished soon. Now that we have our camera back I thought I would share some photos from around our house.
The moss basket I planted myself this spring at the greenhouse.
We have dug out where the cement is going to go. Notice the stairs are off the deck. The dirt to the left will be our garden bed.
The start of our perennial bed. It even has a few plants.
Now we need to move this big gravel pile that is sitting on our driveway.
Happy Wednesday.
What a great trip. I think Micheal and Katie were very surprised when we knocked on the door of the hotel room Thursday night. It was wonderful to see them and spend time together as a family. We did not take many photos but here are some highlights.
Murray and Michelle gambling in the airport as soon as we arrived.
Our dinner at the Stratosphere.
A view of 'The Strip' from the restaurant.
Thanks everyone for a great trip.
The camera came back the very next day. We thought it was a gonner but the camera came back. All fixed up and new and ready to travel...yeah!
Kelly's Stagette last weekend was crazy...and so much fun! Can't wait until the wedding!
Teacher's Gone Wild!
Tuesday was Murray's b-day. We had a small get together to celebrate him. No candle blowing would be complete without GB and R to sit on his knee.
Today is my official first day of summer holidays. Yes, our school finishes earlier than most. I am so excited for this summer mostly because Murray and I have a lot of trips planned.
Can't take too long to write this blog. I am off on a field trip with G and her Kindergarten class to the zoo. Then, this evening, we are off to Vegas (a return trip) for the weekend. We booked it last week so Jason could surprise Michelle for their tenth anniversary this month. We will also surprise Micheal and Katie who are already there and do not know we are coming. Should be a good time. I will blog more when we get back.
Happy Thursday!
