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
