New Pics

Can you believe it? Another post in the same week!! Don't get used to this. I will probably write a bit more during the summer, but as soon as school starts I am sure it will go back to once a month or so. Mike seems to have lost interest in creating new posts...so it is all up to me now. Not too much is new since the last post. We had a few couples over last night for a BBQ, some karaoke and a fire. Today Mike and I went looking for ceiling fans and now Mike is working on creating a door for the downstairs crawl space. The cats love it in the crawl space, but they always seem to climb up into the space in the roof and it is so hard to get them down. It is beautiful again today...30 degrees. I sat outside most of the day re-reading some of the twilight series, while Mike sat inside. I can't understand why he doesn't enjoy the heat.

Mike has been trying to take some good pics of the cats to put up in the house, but Gordon can never keep his eyes open. We got a few decent pictures today and I thought I would post. We don't take pictures of much else...I'm just glad my dad doesn't read this because he definitely would not want to see cat pics...he despises them...LOL

Wish Summer Would Never End!!

Hello,

Mike and I are absolutely loving the time off. The best part is sleeping in for sure. We haven't been too busy, especially because we are trying to save some money. Last week we went downtown to a Vietnemese restauraunt with Mark and Jill and then went to see the Calgary Vipers play (baseball). It was actually a pretty good game. The weekend was beautiful. Mark and Jill came over to enjoy the sun. Jill and I suntanned for a few hours in the afternoon. We were lucky enough to have Mike making us Dirty Bananas and serving them to us! Then we stayed up pretty late and had a fire and made smores. Last night we had some friends over from Mike's work to have risotto and watch the premiere of Hell's Kitchen. Other than that we have been organizing the house and doing a lot of cleaning. I need to be ready for my mom's inspection at the end of July...LOL I think we are going to take a trip to Banff, visit the farmers market and just enjoy spending some time together. I can't wait!! Mike is also excited to cook her some of his fabulous dishes :) I really need to start taking more pictures so that I can make these entries more interesting. I will make that my goal for next time. Miss everyone at home.

HOLIDAYS!!!

Well the school year is finally over and Mike and I are enjoying our time off. We have just been spending time relaxing around the house and spending time with friends. I have recently become obsessed with the Twilight series and finished the four books in less than a week and now I am reading them again..it keeps me busy while Mike is playing video games. Not too much is new here. We finally took the cone off Gordon and are hoping we can keep it off for good. We are looking forward to having some family visit this summer. We are planning on doing some camping in the next few weeks, but it definitely won't be the same as camping at home. This will be the first summer that we don't come home. The Calgary stampede is on and we will be going tomorrow night with some of Mike's friends from work...looking forward to the deep fried macaroni and cheese...haha
Hope everyone is enjoying the summer so far! Talk to you soon.
