It's in his blood...


Logan Kennedy...the Scottish piper! His dream was accomplished once the box was opened. He just needs a kilt and a bobby hat now!

Regina!

I just got back from a really great week off. Logan and I were able to go to Regina for a week! Logan's brothers and sister-in-law live there, so we went for a vistit! We really enjoyed our time there and the week went by way too fast! We flew out of GP at 7 am on Logan's birthday (Nov. 7) and the trip started off great. Really funny anyways!! We got to the airport and we both had fairly heavy carry-ons, so we thought it would be a good idea to put the straps of our carryons over the pulley handle on our checked baggage. We were already laughing and giggling, and then when Logan went to lift up his bag with the pully handle, the handle snapped right off and his luggage fell to the ground! I laughed for a long time while he walked dramatically away! I had to get a picture of it! Our flights there were pretty quick, but we had to stop in Edmonton and Calgary, so that was a hassle. Once we arrived in the Calgary airport it was about 10 o'clock and we still hadn't had breakfast. One of Logan's favorite restaurants is Swiss Chalet, and the Calgary airport had a Swiss Chalet express, so we went to go find it for a delicious "brunch." Well worth leaving security for!Another thing with Logan, he almost never gives me a normal face for pictures!!We spent a lot of time relaxing over the week, and Logan even got me hooked on Halo! We played together when Davis was at work and Jared and Liana were busy! I got pretty good if I do say so myself! Brothers and quality bonding time: Playing Halo Reach. This time I conceded defeat!Davis was eating a sucker and his tongue got stuck in a hole! Couldn't pass that up haha!Sweet little Vienna! We had so much fun with her! What a little chub eh?This was our last day there! Getting one last snuggle in with Vienna!This was one of many attempts to get a picture of me where it wasn't a picture of my neck or eyeball. Along with not making a normal face, Logan does not take normal pictures :P
The week was altogether very relaxing and uneventful! We did a lot of job hunting there to see what we could find. Then in the off time, we went Christmas shopping with Liana, Laser tagging with Jared and Davis, and then one night we all went curling at the same rink Oscar and Emma from Corner Gas went curling in! Thankfully we were all terrible curlers, so nobody was embarrassed haha :) The week went by way too fast and I'm definitely looking forward to the day we eithe move there, or go back for a visit!!

So spoiled...:)

I have been getting spoiled with roses :) The best thing is I never know when they are coming and they ALWAYS make my day so much better! Logan shows up to work with a rose every now and then and surprises me and everytime they are just gorgeous! Love him and love them!This is the first rose. Unfortunately the petals stuck to the plactic wrapping and fell off when I opened it :( Still beautiful anyways!This second rose my roomate loved so much she took pictures of so she could draw it in the future!
Then he really surprised me one day and brought me three! one of each color :) What a sweetie!
I currently have one more that I haven't been able to take a picture of and it's sitting over on my side table! I'm such a lucky woman!

Down South...in Alberta

At the end of August my family went down to Medicine hat for a camping trip! My brother and his girlfriend headed to Abbotsford for the weekend to visit Leah's family, so they weren't able to join us, but we still had fun! Logan and I left here and met up with my parents at their place, then we loaded up the motorhome and headed down south the next day! It was really nice to travel in the motorhome. Nothing like sleeping on a bed on a six hour drive! Once we arrived, we headed out to Elkwater National (?) park and camped there! It was a really nice relaxing camping trip and we had a great time! Logan and Terry's guitar playing attracted a few drunk ladies from the next campsite over, so that was pretty interesting, but funny nonetheless! Close up of Logan while we went up top of the hill to Horseshoe CanyonLogan's attempt to take a picture of me without waking me up. Nice close up! :P

The view from Horseshoe canyon!

Catch up on all the happenings!

So it's been a long time since I've updated...whoops! I'm going to try to make it a regular thing, I'll just have to find interesting things to post about :) I have a lot to catch up on so here's post 1 of a few!
This summer was my grandparent's 50th anniversary so we had a family reunion to celebrate! It was a lot of fun and we met at the end of July for a couple of days. We all met in Edmonton at my parents place and had a blast! We played lots of games and had some good visits, made some s'mores. It was so nice! As a 50th anniversary present, my parents and my dad's siblings bought them a trip to Nova Scotia because they've always wanted to go! They went with my mom and dad in September for about 10 days and had a blast! It was a really great way to celebrate and it was great to see everyone again! :)
My Brother and his girlfriend Leah! What a pair :)Everyone gathering in the tent for the cake cuttingGrandma and Grandpa 50 years later!

My Nephew Evan loved squishing his face against the screen door! I have many more pictures like this!
