Beaver/Elk Lake

On Saturday for our training session we went to Beaver/ Elk Lake and ran/walked (more walk then run) the 10K trail. Kyanna did really well she ran/walked right with us. Here are some pictures of our trip.

This is what Beaver/Elk looks like

My Friend Tanya sent this to me via e-mail and I HAD to share it!!! If you can't read the text double click the picture and it will get bigger for you...SO worth it!!

Monday!

Ok I SERIOUSLY had a "Monday"!! Tonight Steve and I went and dropped Kyanna off at Sparks and while I was talking to the leader I noticed Steve's face was a little red and he was laughing.....as we broke away from the group I asked him what he was laughing at...and he told me he'd tell me later ...being a typical female (and having a feeling it was about me) I did not let it lie....and kept asking "what"......finally Steve gave in and told me to look down at my feet...................OMG!!!!!!

Happy Birthday!!!!

This week is a big Birthday week...........................

Happy Birthday to Tan and Jay

Happy Birthday to Shawna-rae-be

Happy Birthday to Grumps!!

Hooo Hummm Same Old Same Old

Well my life is officially boring, I seriously have nothing new or exciting going on. I'm training for my 60km walk by getting out and walking everyday today Steve, Kyanna and I went and walked Thetis Lake...apparently you can do "upper Thetis", "lower Thetis" or both we opted for lower Thetis which is about a 45 minute walk with Kyanna. I brought the camera along below are a few pictures from our trip.

This is what Thetis Lake looks like.

yup...just a picture of a mossy old tree...don't be picky...... in Alberta and Ontario they got nuttin but snow!!

A Water Lily of some sort...

Ummm...Steve's idea I leaned against a tree and took a picture looking up

One of my fav's the difference in height makes me laugh

Taken by Kyanna...awwww my little shutter bug...she did well....just ignore the finger in the corner!
Fit for a photo frame....I LOVE this one!!!!

Kyanna Lost Her Second Tooth!!

Kyanna has finally lost her second tooth on the bottom, let me tell you it's been a long time coming. It's been loose since December......when I accidentally ran over her with my crazy carpet and knocked it loose...but that's another tale for another time. This tooth got so loose that she could wiggle it from one end to the other. She even tried to tie dental floss to her tooth and then tie the other end to the steps of her bunk bed and pull....but she could not get the dental floss tied around her tooth. She figures the Tooth Fairy is bringing her a toy but I'm thinking the tooth fairy being a girl in a fancy dress and all wont be able to carry all those toys in her itty bitty pouch. What does the Tooth Fairy bring???? A Toonie and a pack of gum? A $5 dollar bill???

Below is a picture of Kyanna with 2 less teeth..her first one is already growing back

New Job!!

I've put in two days of work at my new job..........I've spent the last two days pulling charts, booking appointments and calling patients. Before I know it 2 p.m. has come and it's time for me to go...I LOVE IT. I'm still in the "honeymoon" phase and I'm sure It'll wear off...but it is definitely the change that I was looking for.

Goodbye PRA!!

Today was my last day with PRA.....My friends at PRA gave me a sweet goodbye with a little gathering in the kitchen with pastry and a prezzie. I received a wonderful card full of well wishes and encouragement along with a beautiful necklace with blue and green beads, from a local jewellery store called Artina's, it specializes in Canadian Handcrafted one-of-a-kind gold and silver jewellery by First Nations Artists as well as Contemporary Canadian Artists. Check out the website: http://www.artinas.com/ (you'll have to cut and paste...I'm still not that savvy with my blog...yet).

To those of my friends at PRA who read my blog I just want to say thank you for giving me the best last day a girl could have. I do know that I will miss working with you and seeing you everyday but I do hope to keep up the promise of seeing you on the "outside"...LOL

After my last day at PRA I was off to my new job where I had training to do and a new job to learn. The Dr's office I'm going to work for has a Travel Clinic as well as two Doctor's who specialize in Internal Medicine and Infectious Disease. I work with one other girl her name is Tenille, we seem to get along just peachy keen.....she's a newfie...need I say more?

This Saturday is Steve and my 6th year anniversary, we went out tonight for dinner at Montana's and had Ribs and then to the movies....we saw Wild Hogs with **sigh** Johnny Travolta in it. If you saw the trailer for this on TV and thought to yourself......... hmmm I might like to see that.........OMG it was SO funny!!! We laughed our asses off and then just because we had a babysitter who we had to pay, we decided to get our money's worth and headed to the Casino.....Steve and I both have never been and wanted to check it out. We split a 20 and got 10 bucks each to play the slots...................We won about 13$ in total and spent it just as fast as we won it. We left once the credit's ran dry and Steve was bored..........not me I was waiting for my "cherry, cherry, cherry"..... I don't think we'll be going back anytime soon but it was something new and worth the experience.

PURSE THERAPY

So my friend Glenda has got this purse addiction.....it's seriously bordering therapy.....hmmm purse therapy.......could it get any better? Anywho from what I understand she's got a closet ......or two full of em. She's been on this big spring cleaning frenzy lately and has been giving away some of her purses and because I've got the "in" with her...you know being a whole 2 cubicles away and all...... I've managed to get two of her previously loved purses. I've posted pictures of them below.


This is the one I got on her first cleaning frenzy in January, I've been using it for months now and I still love it everytime I look at it.



This awesome blue beauty was adopted just 2 days ago she'll be my "spring" purse. I can't wait to move in!!!!

THANK YOU GLENDA!!!!!!!!!!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GLENDA-BEAN!!!!!
