monday morning update

friday ... costco, wal-mart, visit with my parents and all-you-can-eat-sushi with Alli, Rob and Peyton. A quiet and fun Friday night!

saturday ... we went to Chad's friend's (Wes and Allison) wedding. It was a good time - but a gong show. Below are the photos of us on the way to the wedding and then the next morning ... wonder what happened in between?!? :)

sunday ... soccer game - we won 2 to 1 - yay! To my parent's house for lunch and then off to look at a house. We might actually put an offer in - VERY SCARY! Beef dip with my parents and then home to bed. Slept from 8 pm to 7 am this morning ... really hoping to beat the start of this cold/flu that is trying to attack me!

abbey's first soccer practice

My little cuz Ms. Abbey had her first soccer practice last week. I am so proud of her because she is starting even younger than I was when I started. I hope she has a lifetime filled with wins and goals. xoxox

monday morning update

friday ... Costco and then soccer party at Gillian's. Good times had by all :)

saturday ... running around, Chad's uncle's house to pick up some gorgeous wooden benches for his mom and sister-in-law and then to Chad's parent's house for Maxine's birthday party. Home to watch "The Heartbreak Kid".

sunday ... met the rents and went to Denny's for some breakfast. Then drove around Langley looking at houses and visiting open houses. Home to quickly change and then off to soccer in White Rock for a 6:30 pm game. One ball in the face and then a head crashed into my head - home to nurse myself :) But we did win 3 to 1. YAY! Dinner, bath and bed.

Happy Week Kids!

billy buddha ...

Check out my new piggy bank! He is a symbol of FAITH and helps remind me to have faith in myself. I know I should have a more "spiritual" name for him but TK named him Billy and apparently that is final!

this too shall pass ...

I see myself living a life in which I’m absolutely and totally healthy. Everything is working together for my own good and well being. There’s prosperity flowing through me. I’ve found true, beautiful love with an honest, respectful, thoughtful and balanced partner. I’m only doing work that I enjoy and that I find both fulfilling and rewarding. I spend my time on hobbies that I love. I’m providing value everywhere I go.
