My world (Lee) has involved lock jaw for just about 8 days. EIGHT DAYS!!! I have had massage, chiro and taking muscle relaxants. I am seriously starting to freak out. Anyone know any tricks???
I'll serious try anything about now!!

My encounter with Yukon

So I went horseback riding for the first time in many many years. I have this frightening fear of horses. I have no idea why. its weird being the animal lover I am but horses FREAK me out. So on my staff retreat this year we booked a 2hour trail ride. My horses name was Yukon. What a great horse. i swear he could tell I was terrified. he had the most beautiful eyes and was definitely the smartest horse out of the bunch.
Anyway I did it. Didnt love it at all but didnt hate it either. So maybe I'll push myself and continue riding and get over this fear!!

Our family is growing

So 3 weeks ago our family grew a little bigger. we adopted Cherry. Our 15 weeks old Beagle. She's super cute but a REAL BIG handful. She has cherry eye as you can see in the pictures. It looks painful but they say it isn't. Who is they you ask.... no fricken idea. people who read dogs minds and therefore know what hurts them and what doesn't cause you know... they don't speak our language or us theirs...
but anyway there is a surgery to fix it but we'll do that at the same time we get her spayed.
But anyway.... and then there were 4!!!

Our New House

Upstairs dining area

upstairs kitchen

our cute little house

It's official. We are now the proud new owners of a gorgeous little house in Westpark, Red Deer, Alberta, Canada.

We are super excited to move in. We take possession April 30th and we are counting down the seconds.

We still cant believe we actually bought it. We found the open house by pure fluke. We had just finished looking at the most disgusting place I had ever seen and was traumatized by the basement when we were standing outside discussing how gross it was I saw a little open house sign across the street with an arrow pointing down the road. So we walked down and stood outside the house and thought "well this is kind of cute".

Then we stepped inside and I think all our jaws hit the ground. it was gorgeous. It had obviously been gutted and rebuilt on the inside. As I walked around I fell more and more in love with this little place. Upstairs is perfect. downstairs is just as perfect. exactly what Cameron and I were looking for.

We walked out, discussed the price and whether it was in our range and less than 72 hours later we made a deal and we owned the house. YIKES!!!

So now we wait. For April 30th and the moving weekend. Can't wait.

Stop by and visit us in our new home!!

Knock on wood but is it 'actually' spring??

Is it really 2010??

I cant believe it is 2010 and we are still...STILL... seeing so much intolerance and hate. seriously it is getting boring and old...
for those non-north americans you may not have even heard about the superbowl commercial controversy.
I encourage you to go to this link and watch this funny commercial that has now been ban from playing during the superbowl.

CBS claims this ad isnt up to creative standards. WTF?? Then turn around and approve an anti abortion commercial. Soooooo the message here is what??

seriously I would love to know what you think?? It concerns me that the message of HATE and religious bullshit is less offensive than same sex kissing. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! This makes me want to scream.
