I'm Pregnant!!! Woooo Hooooo!!

Hey everyone!!!! As some of you know I have some medical problems that gave Colin and I some worry about whether or not we would be able to have children of our own, and if we did we were told it would most likely take a long time to conceive. We thoguht a lot about it and givent he situation, decided to start trying and we our so excited to tell you all that we are now expecting. It took a few months wich at the time seemed like forever but now seems like it was so short considering it may have taken years, if ever. I am 6 and a bit weeks pregnant and so far things are going fantastic and I feel great, not to mention very happy! Our families are very excited and supportive and have been all along so thank you to our families who encouraged us so much. Thank you for everyone who prayed fro us and who prayed for me to have patience and trust that everything would be fine! We love you all, thanks fro the support, I'll keep you updated! : ) Please keep up the prayers for the health and safety of the baby!

Workn' on the house!

Last week Colin and I had our one year anniversary so we decided to celebrate by taking a few days off and working on the house, which is the same thing we did for our honeymoon. Colin worked non stop tiling our counter top and backsplash and it looks incredible and I worked away at painting tidying and moving furniture in the front room. (originally this room was panelling....eww) So now the house is looking spiffy and we are so happy we were able to get both jobs done before winter. Thanks cooks for the home depot gift card, love you. Happy anniversary Colin, thank you for working so hard on the counter it looks incredible.

The Three Legged Race

On the weekend my brother Ken and I entered the church picnic three legged race. We have never lost a race together and this race has become a tradition for us. This year a bet had been made to race my mom on her own with us two tied together. The deal was that if we lost we had to clean my moms bathrooms and if mom lost she had to make us home made pnacakes from scratch. Needless to say mom was busy making pancakes the next morning. Matt and Brendon think they can beat us next year but we'll see about that!!!!!

A New Friend

My brother, Norm, asked me to take care of his fish and snail while he is away fro the summer. Things were going great but after a really hot weekend the snail sadly passed away. (heat stroke) So I moved the fish downstairs where it became the new salon mascot, "Red." I went to the pet store and bought a new snail, named...snail. It is orange and so the two have become good friends and are living happily in the salon.

Maggie loves the cottage!

On the weekend, Colin, Maggie and I went to the cottage fro some R and R and Maggie loved swimming and sniffing round. We went on lots of walks and had lots of naps, maggie explored a little rock island. She is learning to swim these days, getting too deep makes her nervous still so she is working on it. Colin and I had a great weekend and we woke up sat monring to find a deer on the front lawn. It was a great weekend!

Camping at Bass Lake

On the weekend, Colin Rachel, Derek and I went camping at Bass Lake just near Orillia. We spent Friday night until Sunday there and had a fantastic time. The weather was amazing until late saturday night when we got a huge thunder and lighteneing storm. Saturday was beautiful though, we spent all day on the beach and we cooked outside and did the whole tent thing and had a great weekend. Thanks for coming Rach and Derek!
