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

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.

Jenica's Wedding Ceremony & Reception

You have waited long enough for the best installment of Jenica's Wedding Festivities... the Ceremony and Reception.

Brooke, Laura and I (along with 3 more of Jenica's friends) made up the woman of Jenica's Bridal Party. The Wedding Ceremony and Reception were held at Whonnock Lake Community Hall, which is a beautiful location for an out door ceremony.

It was very nice day, and any signs of rain stayed away for the very special day! Here on the West Coast (or Wet Coast as some call it) an outdoor wedding is hit or miss if rain will stay away, but it did! We were all so thankful for that!



I now pronounce you Husband and Wife! You guys sure do make a beautifully hansom married couple.

While the Wedding Party was taking picture the guests enjoyed an outdoor Cocktail Party. What you can't see from the photos is the wooden pathway that we are all standing is the beginning of a large dock leading to the lake, which makes this location so beautiful.

First Dance, Mother-Daughter Dance, and of course the infamous circle dance. You know it wouldn't be a party without a girls circle dance, right! So fun!

Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. S...

Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness!

Jenica's Stagette

I promised pictures from Jenica's Wedding Festivities, so here is the first installment.... Stagette!!

We spent the day in Yaletown, first stop was a private party at Pure Nail Bar, where we were pampered while enjoying some Drinks and Appies.


Pure Nail Bar was very accommodating and because this was an after hours event they allow you to bring in your own Food, Drink and Music. For sure this is a definite must do, even just for a night out with a bunch of girls.

After the Spa we went for a Private Wine Tasting at Taylorwood Wines


The beauty of Yaletown other than the sights, the water, shopping, and nightlife is you can walk everywhere, and so we did, and most of the girls did it in 3" heels no less. But those smart cookies had a secret hidden in the their purses, flip flops which saved the night walking from one stop to the next.

We enjoyed dinner at Relish, a night out on the town, finished up at the Edgewater Casino, and Cabbed it back to the Hotel when the sun was rising.

I don't remember the last time I was out that late, but I guess that is one of rare advantages of having no kidlet's yet, well except Chloe (English Bulldog) she's our baby.

It was a night to remember!!

Johnny's Update

"I cannot believe what happened today!

This wasn't supposed to happen,

they told me that this wouldn't happen...

it is amazing that it happened...

I am enjoying every minute!"

This was Johnny's wife Britt's Facebook status update today. There has really been a miracle today, with Johnny realizing where he is and talking, on the phone no less!! He has been moved from a 4 on the Coma scale to a 12 yesterday and a 14 today (3 being the worst, 15 being the state that we all are in), and now the healing has to continue for his head injury, and of course broken bones & neck.

He is still in the Kamloops Hospital and I don't know when he will be transferred closer to home here in the Lower Mainland, but when he does he will have many many friends that will be wanting to pay him a visit.

On Saturday there is a ATV Ride fundraiser for Johnny at Larson Hill "Ride for JohnnyKTM" which I am very excited to go to. I can't wait to show my support for this family, and get to talk to Britt.

On behalf of the family thank you for your prayers, keep them coming!

Please Pray for Johnny

On Sunday our friend Johnny was in an ATV accident while away Camping in Kamloops with his family. I'm not sure of the exact details of what happened, the extent of his injuries or prognosis, but he is now in a Coma.

I ask that you please Pray for him, his wife Britt who is by his bedside, and their 2 young children who are now back at home being taken care of by family.

Johnny we are all PRAYING for YOU!

Jenica & Jeff's Wedding / Events

This was a very big weekend for all of us, Saturday June 20th, 2009 was the BIG DAY for Jenica and Jeff. Their Wedding was amazingly beautiful, and we all enjoyed ourselves so much!

I will follow up with pictures from the day, but I'm going to first catch you up on the events leading up to it including her Bridal Shower, which there was two of, but these pictures are from the Shower we had for her.

We enjoyed some good food, and fun Bridal Shower Games, with a bit of funny dress up for Jenica when her answers didn't match Jeff's video taped answers to The Newlywed Game. Oh and of course Jenica was spoiled with lots of wonderful gifts.

I will return with some Pictures from her Stagette.
