Christmas Vacation


I have only been home for 4 days and loving every minute of it!
I started my holidays with staying an extra night in Vancouver to spend a night out with the girls.

Goodness what a great time! I spent the night at my friends house (I haven't done that in about 4 years, which made me feel like a single girl all over again)
The next day my man met me on my side and we went all around Granville island where we found walking gingerbread men, the Granville island brewery, and a kids paradise. It was this huge toy house that was packed with different toys and has a giant play area! Wish I could have brought my little one to check this amazing place out!

We headed back to the island on Sunday where we just relaxed in our lovely home. :)
So since then I have been cleaning and baking treats to give away. I finally finished my Christmas shopping! Together we spent about $1200... Next year we are going away on a Vacation instead of buying a ridiculous amount of presents! I know its not about the presents, but I cant help myself... My friends and family buy things for us so I feel obligated to do the same even though we really should not...
I cant wait this year to see my little princess' face when she wakes up in the morning and sees that the cookies and milk are gone, and Rudolph has eaten the carrots! We didn't have her last year for Christmas morning because her mother had her... This is going to be magical!

Day 23: 30 Day Photo Challenge

Day 23: A picture of my favorite book.

Yes, I know I missed a couple days... I am on Christmas holidays. We are having our first Christmas in our home for the first time! I have been cleaning like a crazy person and baking like no ones business!

So today is supposed to be a picture of my favorite book... I can't even remember the last time I read a book for fun. This is my fourth year in school and I read textbooks... lol my favorite text book is... Hum... Atlas of common oral diseases. I know I'm a dental geek!

Day 22: Something I wish I was better at

This might sound weird, but I truly wish I was better at listening. I am very good at making it look like I'm listening, but I get distracted very easily!

Day 21: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 20: Something I wish I could forget

I know I said I wouldn't write any negative things in here... but its part of the photo challenge... Well, this is kinda depressing... but here it is. I wish I could forget that my father is soo lame. Its not the kind of lameness that parents tend to have like when they do something "uncool" it is lame from all perspectives! He knocks up women, marries them then cheats on them then they divorce him... There have been at least 5 wives (that I know of)... How many children you ask? None from the first marriage, 3 from the 2nd marriage, 4 from the 3rd marriage, 1 from the 4th marriage, and the latest woman is pregnant. So that's... 9 children. Financial support you ask? Nope! Nothing is given out except to the youngest boy... oh did I mention we are all girls except the last child? He is also an old man! The oldest daughter is 26, and the youngest well... in the womb. He is 62... Like women, mens sperm should stop producing after a certain age!

Isn't there research showing the importance for a child's relationship with their father? Interesting...

The worst part is that the children literally suffer. I know, I am one of them. My father cheated on my mom twice... the second time my mom decided she could not deal with it and left him when I was 8 years old.

On the positive side, I was raised by the greatest mom in the whole world! She went to school to become a nurse, bought a house from absolutely nothing and raised 3 successful girls. She is incredibly beautiful, can do all renovations to a house, roofing, but in the evenings she dresses up in ball gowns and goes dancing to galas and keeps a positive attitude the whole time. I am so proud to call her my mommy!

I do forgive him for what he has done, but I will never forget...

Day 19: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 19: A picture of a letter

I wasn't 100% sure what this means... after all who writes letters? I am also not living at home (relocated for school) so I didn't have much to work with, but I wanted to keep up with this 30 day challenge... the next best thing?
Sticky Notes!

This is a picture of 2 sticky notes my man wrote me in 2007 my first week into my first year of school. I was feeling a little overwhelmed at the time and this was his way of cheering me up. I have kept it with my school stuff ever since.

Day 18: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 18: My greatest insecurity

I would probably say one of my insecurities is loosing my teeth. Tooth pain is one of the top 5 pains ever to endeavor! I have dreams about it all the time... or that one of my front teeth break in half... I think it might be part of going to school for dental for the last 4 years...

Day 16: 30 Day Photo Challenge





Day 16: Photo of someone who inspires me.

This is my younger sister. Last year my momma got breast cancer and without thought my younger sister shaved her head so my momma wouldn't feel like a "non-woman" as she called it. Shonnie just rocked the shaved head and raised quite a bit of money through her high school. People were coming up to her in the hallways telling their stories and some would just start crying on her shoulder. I can't believe she is my sister. I am so blessed to have her in my life!

You can inspire people at any age.

Day 15: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 15: Something I want to do before I die

I would love to go to Venice. Something about being in a boat paddling down along streets sounds so romantic and quite the experience!

Day 14: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 14: A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without

Yup, my man, and his little angel. It has been 4.5 years together now. I have never been happier. Sure we have a our battles, but common' don't you have them with your siblings? Parents? Best friends?
How we met: I was studying for an exam for biology with one of my friends, when my older sister phoned me up and asked me to pick up her and her boyfriend and his friend. So I said sure, if I get something in return... Her boyfriend's friend (my man) offered to make us all dinner. So my study buddy and I went over to pick them up, studied while he was making dinner... I didn't flirt a whole lot, but I did do the arm touch while laughing... I was instantly attracted.

How to attract a girl... through her stomach...

I love you xoxo

Day 12: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 12: Something I love

I love my man with all my heart. xox
Someone told me the other day that you shouldn't get married unless you completely understand that there is a possibility that one of you during one point of your marriage might want out. Do not get married if you are not comfortable enough to be able to deal with that.
I would do almost anything to fix my marriage, would you?

Day 10: 30 Day Photo Challenge


Day 10: A picture of the person I do the craziest things with.

It all started almost 6 years ago...
It was grade 11. Tatianna was my best friend in the whole wide world. She was the devil, I the angel.
We had no pants parties, many fake "class projects" and got picked up on the side of the road from cute boys to order 26 waters and an apple pie from Mc Donalds. (they gave it to us)

Yup it was a good 3 years! Miss your pretty face. xox

Day 5: 30 day Photo Challenge

Day 5: A picture of my favorite memory

This was our Christmas 2009. Enough said.

Just kidding. These are my crazy friends... We decided to purchase the most random presents (that may/may not be useful) and pick names out of a hat to pick the present. My present was a spatula and I bought someone ice-cream cones, nothing else... just the cone part. haha
There were snacks galore, a couple beers and many giggles.
Love you my peeps ;)

Day 4: 30 Day Photo Challenge

Day 4: A picture of my night

I couldn't find a picture of an amazing night, so I thought maybe daytime would be ok...
Me and my man take turns making up dates once a month to keep us sparking. This was his turn. He decided it would be a great idea for us to go out kayaking.
It was our third time taking our little Falito out on the kayaks with his little life jacket. He took turns sitting in both our kayaks. He seems to love jumping in the ocean.
It was our longest kayak trip yet. We paddled to a small island just off "the island." It took a couple hours to get there. What an amazing place. We packed a picnic lunch for the 3 of us, and brought a blanket to rest for a hour or so. We jumped in the ocean, and snuggled on the rocks.
What an amazing day! Love you lots baby! xoxo

Day 2: 30 Day Photo Challenge

Day 2: A picture of a person I have known the longest... not including family



This is my girly. We have known each other since grade 1... So 6 years old... thats... 16 years. Oh goodness... Yup time sure flys!
We don't see each other every day, or even talk every day... I mean not even every month. She has moved away a couple times, but every time she comes back its like nothing has changed. I love my sweet girly!
In this picture we went on a beautiful hike last year around Mt. Washington. When I say around I mean it! We got very lost and what was supposed to be a couple hour hike turned into a full day hike! It was quite fun though! Somehow we made it to the top of a hill? (not the best photo but one of the best memories)
I miss your pretty face! xoxo
