Winter is coming..

It's that time of year again. We are bracing ourselves for winter as it begins to really cool off. We've had a few freezes already and my plants out front are dying, so it's a sure sign that snow is soon to follow.
We've been pretty busy the last couple of months. Things are starting to slow down for me, but starting to pick up for Logan, so it'll still be a busy little bit for our family! Logan is enjoying his job at Toyota and doing a wonderful job there. They really like him! He even convinced his best friend to apply for a job there and now they are working together again. They had previously worked with each other at Peace Windows where they met, so it's fun for them to be able to "relive" old times!
Adrienne is growing like a weed! I had her weighed earlier this week and she is 14 pounds and 5 oz. They didn't take her lenght measurement as it was just a drop in weigh in, so i'm not sure how long she is, but she is getting so big. It's bittersweet.

She continues to be such a ray of sunshine! She is an incredibly happy girl and you don't have to work hard to get a smile out of her! To get her to laugh on the other hand you have to work fairly hard. She seems to get the giggles before bedtime so we like to play with her then and then have our story time to calm her down again :)

So far she still looks majority like me although "I" am seeing more and more of Logan. He doesn't believe me, so we'll leave it at that :) She has her chubbiness from him though as I wasn't really ever a chubby baby.

 We had her dedicated on September 7th along with the other 5 babies that were born so far this year

 My mom always puts her pants on her head when she changed her diapers :)

Her favorite toy is her Jumperoo. Every day i put her in there and she just goes to town jumping away! She has a little elf dance that she does from foot to foot when she's in it. It's pretty adorable :)

We are getting excited for the holidays! We are still not sure what we are going to do as this is Logan's first year at Toyota and we aren't sure how the holidays work around that time. We may go to Regina which would be great! If we aren't able to get much time off we will most likely stay here or go to Edmonton, so either way we're hoping to see family! It would be our first christmas with family that we've ever had since we've been married, so it would be lovely! 

I hope this post finds you all well! Until next time! 

Wedding Photos!

I still don't have my wedding photos, so these aren't the real deal...I just finally figured out how to save photos off of facebook now with the new album system, so here's a sneak peek of our wedding photos!!

Hola Dominican Republic!

We went to the Dominican on our honeymoon and it was fantastic! It was extremely warm though! It felt like it got to around 35 degrees Celsius every day! Needless to say, Logan and I got sun burnt pretty bad that took a few days to recover. We decided it might be best to wait until the hottest part of the day was somewhat over before we ventured outside again.

Married!

Our room. They were really nice! The first time we got there there was a towel swan with flower petals on the bed! They also tied balloons everywhere for us too :)

This is pretty much what the resort looked like the whole way through! So nice. Amazing the world change though once you leave the resort gates.

First day there, had to go to the beach!
The buffet at the Resort had a really great arrangement! Almost every little tray had some decoration like this!
A picture of my wonderful husband and a sample of the buffet place. Pretty fancy!I don't know how it happened, but at some point I was eating with 2 forks and didn't realize it for awhile....I think this is the only picture of the two of us...other than para sailing!So one night I got up to go to the washroom and this big cockroach skittered across the floor, I jumped on the bed and repeatedly *screamed for* asked Logan to kill it...so gross!Relaxing in his new favorite shirt :PWe went para sailing! I was so scared. I hate heights, but Logan really wanted to do it, so we did! It was so fun!! It's actually not that bad once you get up there. I was quite relaxed and enjoying being that high in the air (far above the palm trees!)

I'm having issues with uploading videos, so I will try to upload them a bit later!

We're Engaged!!....and I'm finally telling the story!

Yes, the long wait is over! I have been procrastinating. Mainly because my computer has been down and I just bought a new one and just got my monitor and installed photoshop back on my computer yesterday, so I was finally able to convert my photos to post! Phew. All done now!

Anyways, Logan and I are engaged!! He popped the question on December 22, 2010 at around 8:45 ish. I was working until 8 that night and was planning on doing roomie christmas with my roomate! Now maybe before I tell the story, I'll start out with what I was expecting. It's more humorous that way :)

I knew Logan was going to propose sometime either in December or January. We were wanting to get married this summer and I really like the month of June. So he asked me how much time I would need to plan a wedding. I told him around 6 months, so he made his schedule :P Since I knew he was going to propose soon, I was planning on looking as pretty as I could. I was expecting him to maybe take me out for a nice dinner and then ask me afterwards, so I was planning on having some time to get all dolled up. I had sparkly jewelly I was going to wear, I was going to do my makeup, wear my best clothes etc. But he happened to propose to me when I was totally surprised. I was also sick that day, so my nose was red and runny, my hair was a mess and my eyeliner was running. Not to mention my eye was also bloodshot. Needless to say I looked SOOOO good :P Anyways, now that you have the picture of how great I looked, I'll continue.
I come home from work around 8:35 ish and walk in to the apartment with all the lights turned off, except the hall light. All the way from the door to the kitchen were red and white rose petals. I immediately knew what was going on. I walk down the hallway, and on the kitchen table were roses all laid out nice and a vase of roses in the middle. There were a few candles spread out throughout as well, and in between two candles was the ring! I was just shocked! I looked into my living room, and there he was, handsome as ever in his suit. I didn't even really notice the ring at first, so he got up, pointed to the ring, and then got down on one knee and popped the question!! It was so wonderful and exciting, and I just can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him! The official date is June 11, 2011. 5 months away :)

This is what I saw when I walked into the apartment

The beautiful arrangement of roses that my roomate Michelle delighted in helping him with!

The ring in the box!!

The absolutely GORGEOUS bouquet of roses he bought for me! Just one half of it though :)

This is pretty much exactly what my ring looks like. The only difference is on each side of the big diamond, there are seven diamonds instead of 6. Also on the front and back of the big diamond is one small diamond. Absolutely gorgeous! He did a great job!!

*EDIT* I also took a picture of Logan sitting in the chair in his suit, but it was on another camera and the pictures were on my laptop that's in Edmonton. I might add that one in here too, once I get it :) But don't worry. He looked great!
