Old Picture

My friend Laura posted an Album on Facebook of old pictures from way back in the day. So I thought it would be fitting since you have seen Our Wedding pictures from 5 years ago that now I show you a picture from the year that we started dating, circa 2000.

Look we both have LOTS of HAIR!! hehehe

5 Years

On this day 5 years ago was the start of our lives as Husband and Wife. I remember that day with beautiful memories filled with our excitement of the thought of our lives ahead, and that joy was shared with our Family & Friends.

It honestly feels like it has been longer than 5 years, and almost like we have always been Married, and I wouldn't wish for it to be any other way.

Here are some pictures from our Wedding; August 28, 2004;


Richard,
I love that you are my Warrior,
My other Half, and Forever my Husband.
Together we can accomplish all of our hopes and dreams.
Forever yours, xoxo
Nadine

Where have I been?

The answer to that question is, not far, just busy. Mainly spending ALOT of time with Brooke preparing for Georgia's Baptism. Yesterday was a beautiful day, and I promise to have photos to follow, but once again I was so involved with the activities that I didn't even pull out my Camera. (So a request to everyone that was there, please send me your pic's)



Update on 30 Day's of Blogging Challenge. My 30 days of blogging have come and gone, it was pretty successful; I posted 20 out of my 30 days. Not too bad considering that is about half of my total posts so far this YEAR! I look forward to posting more often than I did prior to my 30 Days of Blogging.


So with that said..... I will be back! With lots of pics from the last week.

Savings!!

Just wanted to pass on the links to a couple websites that will save you money. Thanks to our upcoming HST as I previously posted about every dollar in our pocket is much wanted and needed.

http://www.flyerland.ca/ is a Website that will not only give you access to your LOCAL flyer's, but also printable Coupons. There are coupons big and small, from $250 off a Used Car at Toyota to a Free Loaf a bread at Cobs. And if you shop at Michaels you will want to bookmark this site as they regularly have 40% & 50% OFF coupons!!!


http://www.save.ca/ is where you can print off coupons for National Brands for tons of things like Toothpaste, Allergy Medication, & Cereal. This site you will want to check back often cause they are always changing it up, and adding new coupons.

http://www.visaperks.ca/ This site gives you two options printable or promotional codes for all of your Online Purchases. The only glitch is you have to make the purchases with your Visa (but if you just pay it off anyways, there is really no difference, right??) I like to think of this site as a bit of a hidden secret, cause everyone I have mentioned it to has never heard of it. It has tonnes of different coupons for many stores that we all shop at... Old Navy, Gap, Suzy Shier


I personally love the idea of looking online for coupons or Promotional Codes when I want to make purchases. I am more than willing to sign up for Mailing List if it means I'm saving money.
Actually the excitement of a Shopping high that you get when you save money runs in our family. Brooke and my Mom all appreciate a great SALE!!

Long Weekend Recap...

It has become almost expected here in the Lower Mainland that with Long Weekends comes BAD WEATHER (well at least that is what is seems like), but our record breaking Heat Wave stayed strong, and we enjoyed wonderful weather all Long Weekend long.


Our plan was to go camping but it was TOO HOT for Chloe so instead we enjoyed a very relaxing and fun Long Weekend around home, so relaxed that I didn't take any pictures to show you the...


BBQ's with family & friends
Swimming
Long walks
at the lake
and
Lunch with family



The second best part of a Long Weekend is a Short Work Week, but I'm sure I don't have to convince you of that!!

Long Weekend

We have been having a great Long Weekend filled with Friends & Family. Unfortunately I've taken no pictures!!! I know it's shocking because I have my camera in my purse 24/7. So I don't really have an excuse other than I haven't thought of it. Oh well...

I will be back later with the full details of our Long Weekend Recap.
