Summer Girls

So, I thought I should probably write and keep everyone up to date on my summer. It’s actually been pretty busy, well compared to my other summers when I did nothing but work. I’m still working a lot but I’ve managed to fit in some extra curriculars! So thats always good. I’ll start at the begining! And in a bit there will be pictures from pretty much everything.

First I moved back to Red Deer and that night was Janapolooza (Jana’s going away party *sniff*sniff*), we had fun but it was bitter sweet cause she had to move away forever. But good news: she got accepted to UofL and so she has to drive past us all the time and hopefully we will still see her sometimes — Jana we do live closer than your family so you should just spend all holidays with us!!! And Jana’s coming down for Jodi’s birthday Luau next weekend!!! YAY!!!!! Then nothing really exciting happened. I got a full time job, I continued working the same old part time job and I still work 6 days a week, sometimes more ( welcome to my pity party).

Then in June we had the busiest weekend ever! We did the Cancer Relay for Life on the Friday night (Thank you again to everyone who sponsored us!!!!) and slept on Saturday. On Sunday we got up and met up with a bunch of other people and started driving west! We camped at Big Horn Dam that night and got up at like 5:00am monday morning and drove to Lake Louise (or as the french call it: Lac Louise) where we got picked up on a bus and driven over the BC boarder where they suited us up and put us in rafts and sent us (with guides) down the Kicking Horse River (and I now know how it got it’s name). Thats right — I went white water rafting!!! it was freakin awesome!!!! I want to do it again and again and again!!!! Anytime anyone wants to go I know at least 3 people that will go with you!!!! After a long day on the river they fed us some chicken and drove us back to Alberta. We started the long drive back to Nordegg area and then Red Deer, actually we liked it so much that we went back to BC first for a bit before we realized that we wanted to go East (don’t tell anyone though — it’s a car secret).

Then it was back to work and it’s been pretty tame. We Went to Ponoka Stampede last weekend —- I don’t think I have to explain that cause everyone who has ever been knows what a good time it is. We have been spending a lot of time in our bathing suits, just maxin and relaxin and it has been a pretty darn good time. So good actually that I never seem to have time to do laundry — so that will have to be tonight — while i upload pictures that is!

Upcoming: Jodi’s birthday Luau!!!
AND the most important event of the summer —– little baby Lulu!!! I can’t wait!!!
