Wishing the hub the best Birthday

I'm married to a 26 year old now...
that would be kinda weird if I weren't just a year younger.

A note to Air:
I'm sorry you can't have a cake this year hun,
I promise I'd make you one if you weren't on a diet.
As soon as you're off, ok?

At least you can be sure that you've eaten a lot of really amazing things in your life.


...and this isn't even one of them:


Thanks for being the best friend I've ever had...
the friendliest best had ever...
best ever hadder friend

You're real great. Really.

I'm a lucky gill.
And I love you!

Love me

.Campus

Yesterday I went to the University with Air again.

We loved walking around campus together.

It's such a beautiful place to be
I love all of the big old red brick buildings covered in vines.
But if you think they’re pretty outside, you should see them inside too!


I'm also absolutely obsessed with cute little old homes like these:



Lucky for me, they’re everywhere here in Edmonton!

.the great indoors

*isn't Canada beautiful?

Do you ever feel like your body is getting all twisted up and its getting harder and harder to move?

Neither do I.

That would be really weird though, wouldn't it?

...Unless you're playing this:



This weekend I wanted to do something fun. Like... ice skating! or sledding!

It was really cold outside.

We opted for indoor activities instead.

Also, I'm pretty sure that Tessa and I have an unhealthy addiction to Phase 10...

I love that game!

Another currently enjoyed winter activity is watching my long-favored show: The Bachelor

Which girl will Jake choose..... ?

My vote's on Tenley

.volley

One Friday night we were about to go hang out with some of our friends, when they called us and said they wanted to go play volleyball.

Our first reaction makes me laugh now. It went something like this:

Air: Aw man... I just wanted to watch a movie or something.
Me: Should we just call and cancel?
Air: Yeah lets do that. I don't really feel like playing tonight.


.....Eventually we decided that we'd just go and play anyway.

We ended up having lots of fun... I'm so glad that we got off our butts and went! It's great to get back into a sport during this long winter. Plus, we both love love love volleyball.

So we've been playing most Friday nights since October. Inviting anyone who wants to come play, and who can hit a ball fairly straight. It's such a blast

And now, I give you some sweet action shots!:

And you know what? Playing volleyball makes me happy!

.Snowman Builders

*can you tell we're having fun with Photoshop?

We live next door to an elementary school.


This sight really makes me smile when I drive by after recess.


Just dozens of little snowmen and snow balls all over the field.


I like kids. Kids are cute.


{funny how the word 'recess' alone brings back so many memories...}
