It's been a while!

Absolute Perfection!

Since it has been a while...like always...I thought I would post. On my last post I think I wrote that we were going to get married in Mexico in November. But unfortunatly that idea has been scratched. But we are thinking about planning a wedding here in the Okanagan next summer. I don't have many details yet but when I do...I will be posting.

Here are some recent pics of my beautiful little girl.

Wedding!!!

For all of you that know me, I love to play ball. We play on the Salty's Pirates. One crazy team I tell ya. I have never had so much fun. This year we are going to a tournament in Mexico in November. Does that not sound like an absolute blast!!! Two weeks away with all of our friends in Mexico, playing ball...couldn't ask for anything better.

So because all of our friends are heading there at the same time. Me and Joe have decided to GET MARRIED there. Yes, we are going to tie the knot. I am so excited. All of our friends will be there. I don't think there would be a better time to do it. I am so happy. 8 years is long enough to wait.

Well, this is just a short post...just to let you all know our news. Exciting ehh!!!!

It's a girl....

Last night was a brutal night of sleep!!

Because, my best friend of all time had her baby at 2:11 am. Everyones happy and healthy. Kendra is a beautiful little girl. She weighed 7lbs 3 ounces and had a full head of hair. I love her so much and I haven't even met her yet. She is in Vancouver.

Congratulations Courtney and Justin on your new family. I am so happy for you and wish I was there to help. I'm sure you have lots of it though.

Love you guys!!!

Ball Fun!!!

We've spent the last quite a few weekends playin ball in the sun! It has been awsome fun and super crazy!!! Here are a few pics to prove it.

I saved the best for last. Newf and Ty. No, they are just friends. But isn't this the best pic you have ever seen.

Growin Up!

Starting next week, my precious little girl will start attending day care. I swore to myself when she was born that I would never ever put her in daycare and that I would spend every moment I could with her before she grew up. I feel terrible leaving her, she has always been with either me and Joe, but never both of us together. Because of our crazy schedules, time with family has never really existed in our household. I think it is important of us to spend time together and that is why we have decided this is the best thing for Jillian and our family. Me and Joe will be working together Monday to Friday and we will have evenings and weekends off. Which means we will be able to go camping and to the beach together on weekends and spend our evenings together. I am excited but sad at the same time. Jillian is growing up so fast and I can't believe that in September she will be riding the school bus. Where does time go?
As I am shedding a few tears as I write this post, I know it will all be for the best! Things will work out. They always do!

Torn!

Since I have started college. I find that I keep second guessing what I have decided to do with my life. Is this really what I want to do? Do teachers make enough money? Will enjoy all the bratty 13 year olds? Before I had Jillian I used to be very active. I ran about 4 km. almost every day, played every sport going. I was invited to joined special sports programs at school for people who were gifted (athletically). Since Jillian has been born, I have never gone back to living an active and healthy lifestyle. I have become incredibly lazy. I think it is because I know what kind of work it will take to get myself back into shape.
Well recently I came across another program at another university. It is a PHYS ED. program where I will end up being a phys. ed. teacher. And best of all, it doesn't involve all of the sciences like Human Kinetics or Kinesiology.
There is one major downfall with this whole situation. The program is at UVIC! We would have to move away. We would have to leave our cute little house in Trout Creek. We would have to leave this beautiful lake we live on, and worst of all, we would have to move Jillian away. This is a dream place to raise a family. I love it here so much. It's so beautiful and warm and I just love our little town.
I am so torn on what to do. I know it will be best for me and our family in the end, but we will all be incredibly sad to leave. It is not forsure yet but the idea is there.
I have heard Victoria is a beautiful city but how could anywhere be more beautiful than here. All I can say is it will be an incredibly sad day when we leave.

Almost Done!

Currently I am waiting to write my last exam. It feels so good. Finally done!!! Until I start my summer courses.
Am I ready? No, not at all. At least I don't feel like I am. I studied pretty darn hard for this final. Who knows I may be suprised when I walk out of there.
Keep me in your thoughts and hope the best for me. Please I need it!
Soon I will be able to update about interesting things. Rather than just how stressful I am.
Ta Ta for now!
