I’m sad to see you go. The past year brought a lot of good things into my life. I began a career that I’m proud and happy to be a part of. I had some amazing visits with family and was able to surprise my parents for an unexpected vacation in July. I spent two wonderful weeks in Greece, a country I have always wanted to visit and was so much more in awe of it than I ever imagined I...

-make the bed and put away clothes on the floor
-notice the floor is dirty so I start to sweep and end up in the living room, where I...

So ready.
It’s been three and a half years since we moved west to Alberta and I can safely say I am more than ready to move back now. I feel that everything we set out to accomplish here, we have, and there is nothing holding us to this city anymore. We both graduated again, started our careers and discovered that we are capable of building a life when all we had was each other and two suitcases of...
For supper tonight
I made homemade onion rings. They are and were just as delicious as they sound. Ate them far too quickly to manage to snap a picture, but next time (oh there will definitely be a next time!) I’ll show you the results!
