7:30am... out of bed, in the shower.

9am... arrive at the church for "Project Noah". An awesome ward party where Air was teaching a First Aid class and we learned about food storage and emergency preparedness. Included a delicious breakfast!

12:30pm... meet up with Tam and Jadey in Fort Saskatchewan to look at the new model homes! Yes, we do this for fun!

4:30pm... meet the rest of the family at the Olive Garden for dinner! Where most of us ordered chicken parmesan and they bestowed upon me this lovely birthday ribbon:

.you say it's my Birthday?

You're right, it is.

And for the first time I'm starting to regret allowing the years to pass.

26 is too old for me.

I'll go with people's most common guess at my age and say I'm basically 18.

.Today

20110223 air shaves (2) edit2

Oh not much, just seminary then work from 9 to 5. I talked to a lady with cancer during my lunch break. We talked about cancer... and life... and the losing of one's life to cancer.

Air picked me up at 5:12 on his way home from work.

He told me he might be getting a promotion soon?? We are hopeful, but unsure… and careful of getting our hopes shattered at the same time.

We drove straight to the bishop's storehouse to pick up the food storage canner for a demonstration at a ward party this weekend. A little old man showed us how to use the canner, and then he gave us a free can! SWEET! I watched some ladies pack up boxes of flour to give to the poor.

My church is full of service and generosity. I'm extremely happy to be a part of it.

We stopped at the new Five Guys: Burgers and Fries on the way home... dinner. My burger was pink. Like really pink. I didn't want to be that customer. The one who complains and makes everyone uncomfortable, but Air was so sweet and took my burger up to the counter and exchanged it for a fresh one. He even managed to make all of the employees smile while doing it.

My Air is multi-talented.

Then we went home and Air said, "I think I'll shave tonight". I felt shocked since that hasn't happened for a few months.

I documented.

Then Air ate his mustache:

After looking at the clock in these pictures we figured out it took him approx 20 minutes to shave a full beard.

And the sink looked like this:

.after all

20110219 Cherry Grove (2) edit2

Take one guess what I ended up doing this weekend.

That's right! I ran off to Cherry Grove with the family after all. Lucky me!

Sure, I may have put a huge target on my forehead at work... but I guess I just don’t care that much?
(and for the record, I did get “permission” from my boss. So I shouldn’t be getting fired quite yet)

Family is important! And so is getting away from town now and then. It was soooo nice to be up there with everyone having fun!

Jaydon and Russ @Jaydon’s baptism

We went to the baptism, ate lots of food, played volleyball all night, went to church on Sunday, went to see Kevin’s cabin, admired the beautiful countryside, visited friends, and had lots of fun on the road there and back.

As we were driving through the country we saw this:

So we zoomed in to see what was up:

Oh, the beauty of the world…

.The Chubbs


I've got a bad case of the post V-Day chubbies.

I'm also kinda gloomy this week since I haven't been able to get work off for this coming Saturday ...when we were planning on going up to Cherry Grove to stay with family for Air's cousin's baptism.

Air is going up without me for the whole weekend just because of this dang shift that nobody could cover.

I think my manager hates me.

I think my manager is evil and hates everyone.

She "wrote me up" THREE TIMES this week for dumb dumb things.

I know that we should love everyone, and that has been pretty easy for me to do so far in my life. But gosh! This lady?? I may be wanting a new job soon if I have to keep dealing with her. She could be the death of me.
