What a Weekend!

Monday, November 17th, 2008

We had a fabulous weekend!

It started off on Friday, you can check out what the kids and I did over at Being Savvy Halifax …

Then Saturday J returned from another university tour/talk and we ventured out, like good ole Maritimers to the Parade of Lights! It was pouring rain most of the time. We do not own an umbrella (well Becca does but we forgot it at home!) I am determined now to buy an umbrella! It was super awesome and the kids had a BLAST! The rain for them was just a bonus! We were SOAKED. Good times.

Yesterday we went for a drive to an art gallery in rural Nova Scotia. I had purchased some pyrex pieces through Etsy and was picking them up. We drove by Lawerencetown beach on the way home … witnessed some amazing waves!

We also packed till we ran out of boxes! I am getting so excited! TWO WEEKS from today and we have possesion of the HOUSE …. *squeals of delight!*

To round off the weekend perfectly, Ethan slept from 8pm to 7am …. straight. Not once waking up. He got up all refreshed and happy this morning …. I am so hoping this is a new trend for him!

Time Inches Forward

Friday, November 14th, 2008

Will November ever end?

This week has gone by insanely fast, yet this month seems endless.

It is not that I do not have a MILLION things to do, but still. I would much rather do everything in my new house! December 1 is our closing date. We meet with our mortgage guy Monday, and our realitor the week before closing. It all seems so far away.

I still have a ton of packing to do. I have presents to prepare for shipping and Christmas cards to prepare. Yet my mind just wants it to be December 1.

Our anniversary was awesome. Our totally wonderful friends took our kids so we could go out to eat. We had a great walk and talked then ate at a pub downtown. Magical to send time with my husband! We totally need to start a date night on a regular basis somehow!

By the way, I am still going to blog here. Being Savvy Halifax is my paid gig. It is a total reflection of me and this blog with a direction. Preschool life in Halifax. I am sorry if I cause confusion with yesterday’s post. I totally understand that time is limited and we cannot read everything. I absolutely adore the support but totally get the time constraints!

Heading to Prince Edward Island was so awesome. J & I had discussed the kids and I going with him, but decided to be pratical. Then at the least possible moment we threw cation to the wind! I am so glad we did! It was the cost of food for the kids and I, plus a museum admission. I so so want to head there on a summer vacation at some point in my life time. It is such a beautiful place!

Today the kids and I are heading to a Fire Station for a tour … I tell you all about it next week! Any plans for the weekend? We have a few thing to attend and tour about …

Tonight I Celebrate My Love For You

Monday, November 10th, 2008

hehe now you will all have that song stuck in your head ALL DAY! MUWAHAHA!

Wait …

Now so will I!

arg!

hehe

Today is our wedding anniversary. Seven years married to my best friend. The man of my dreams. He is tall, dark and handsome. Smart, witty, geeky and fun. We have moved four times in the seven years we have been married. Across our nation, into another then back again. It has been a wild ride, scary and thrilling all at the same time.

We have always been there for each other, helping each other reach our goals and make life fabulous. We have had good times, hard times, miserable times and frikin fantastic times. The last year was the hardest EVER! Even harder than the months following our miscarriage. Yet here we are, on the eve of moving into our first home, we have two beautiful children, a wacky cat and each other!

I love you J! May the remainder of our years together be full of love and laughter.

We are going on a date this afternoon. ALONE. Maybe we will actually get a photo of us TOGETHER.

I am so excited!

I do however want you to pop over to Being Savvy Halifax and answer my question. I am a curious cat :)
