we are blessed to have amazing friends. thanks to the bennetts for letting us camp in their backyard on May long weekend. we set up the tent at 12:30 am in the pouring rain. so cold.

my best friend jessica got married in february. here are two pictures from her wedding day that i ordered and framed. they both sit on my bookshelf and i just love them.

i did two posts today. the one below is more boring, but read on.

weekend

this weekend was really good. friday night we went to see "how to train your dragon" which was soo cute. saturday morning we got up at 7:45(earliest i've gotten up in months) to go clean the church. afterwards we went to Cora, an amazing breakfast place that serves crepes and tons of fruit. then we walked around the mall and checked out the new Ipad... afterwards we went to the grand opening of the shopping complex i work in. they had a BBQ, snacks, prizes, testers, entertainment. it was pretty fun actually. i won a really cute apron from "twisted goods"-my favorite home decor store. then enjoyed being at home and cleaned the house a bit. sunday was stake conference and it was so good. i love hearing from leaders within the church. i especially enjoyed elder pace's talk. afterward, we went back to the grand opening for some more free food. haha. cam, michaels brother, came with us to that.

i finished organizing all my photos and videos!! but i'm going to put off getting a camera until i really know what i want. even after looking at so many different cameras, i still dont know what i want. so i'll let you all know when i get a new camera!!

my michael


when i first saw all michael's childhood albums, my heart honestly melted!! i just think he's soo adorable!! here are some of my favorites that we used in our wedding slideshow, which i should actually upload on here. 

taking a nap... sad thing is, WE now have this couch. its old, springs are gone, but because our place is soo small, we can't fit our furniture.
what a little STUD hey?
here is michael with his big sister jody.
first bike i am assuming. 
so now we take you into the hair-bleaching stage. i believe this photo is from the paper is his hometown, vermilion. apparently he was quite the basketball player, but since i didnt meet him until seven years after, i wouldn't know from experience.
michael and devin goofing off- in their long haired stage. there are some pretty white-trash pictures from them in this stage, but we'll keep those a bit more private. haha

michael is a lifeguard. he worked at the ramada for a few years during university, and then also at the henderson outdoor pool in lethbridge one summer. i dont think many of you know this but i use to have a crush on michael when he worked at the outdoor pool in lethbridge. a friend and i would go there summer after grade 10 nearly everday for about a month, and michael caught my eye. his job was to keep the kids entertained and play games with them, and i just thought that was the cutest thing. he wore a tank top (different uniform than above), and sunglasses, sometimes a hat, and swim shorts. i wouldn't follow him around or stare at him because i knew he had to be much older than i (which is true-7 years) so i kind of just had a crush. 3 years later- i met him, when he had moved to waterton for the summer, while i was living there... and when i had realized it was him, i didn't want him to know i even recognized him, because i didn't want to seem creepy, which it probably is. anyways, i ended up marrying a crush i had when i was in high school! haha

camera

michael told me when i got all my pictures from my computer onto CDs, I could get a new camera. sounds easy right? it's not. when i got my computer, michael transferred all his pictures from his computer to mine. i also had my external hard drive, and as well as my memory on my computer. so i used iphoto, and it was good for a while, but then all my pictures wouldn't show up. they are now scattered all over my computer. i probably have over 2000 photos on my computer, and about 1500 of them are missing. so i have to manually go through and find each photo and put them into a new folder. very time consuming. i am now organizing like mad, really wanting to get this new camera i have been saving for. so i have about 500 more to go. i can also put the new operating system on my computer when all this is done. so my goal is to finish finding the photos by end of next week. lets see how i do.
