Mud Season is better!

As mucky as mud season is, I think it may be better than this!




2 years ago when I worked at the Holiday Inn, I met this women who was attending a Mary Kay event at the hotel. She was about 60ish and lived in Edmonton all her life. She said that in her whole life here in Edmonton, that a winter storm hasn't hit in April, only once-- that she can remember. And look it is now April and we are being hit with the worst storm ALL winter here. Many vehicles are stuck in the ditch, highways closed, school buses not running but schools open, and many power outages all over the city. What a day! And why do we remember people like I mentioned above, can anyone answer that? I always think of her as soon as I turn the calendar to April.

Spring Break 2012

The last couple of days of spring break we needed to get away. So this weekend we travelled to Calgary. It was a nice weekend. We just hung out at the hotel and swam, no agenda other than that. Enjoy the photos.
Dawson at Hooters having a coke. Enjoying March madness on the tv, (among other things!)

We went to a restuarant and I thought of Sarah. They had an Elvis section. Many Elvis dolls were in this section. My favourite was the smurf elvis! And no we don't know that guy in the black hoodie, looking right at the camera? I think he might have photobombed our photo!

This photo is for Carol and MJT. A new building in Calgary. The bow. It is 59 stoires high. It was supposed to be 79 however it violated the shadow bilaw in Calgary and had to be made 59 stories.

Finally a quick thank you to the local fire department who came quickly to our hotels false alarm at 8am. The kitchen doing up breakfast was smokin' hot! (haha) It turned out to be a sensitive alarm in the breakfast area. All was good.

Too Sweet



I can see Lily's Mom and her Gramma doing this for her too, if needed.

The girl in this photo is ME!



Something in this picture made me laugh? Maybe the fact that somedays I don't exercise and something inside me says this? Who knows? But as we are having nicer weather here, I am trying to get some exercise daily.
