"Lee drinks her own pee" birthday cake

Well its official. I am 33. Theoretically this should be a great year if I take into consideration numerology and 3 being my number and then being 33 ...this year should be fricken great...right?? I'll keep you posted.

Yes I seriously did get a bday cake that said Lee drinks her own pee. VERY funny!! Love it. and of course it was Dairy Queen ice cream cake so I was really content. I had a great bday. 1st I got to celebrate the day with family and tons and tons of phone calls (thank you everyone for the well wishes). I got my Lululemon from Cameron so i was pumped. I was spoilt which was fun with the little things in life you never get for yourself so that's great. And on the Sunday we had a bbq. It was awesome to be surrounded with good friends again and talk about life and where we are all going. its all exciting. Its weird to have babies at these things now. man thats a sign of age or what..ha!!

So here I am 33. Excited about whats coming, let go of what has past and going to try love every moment, live in the now as they say.

1st visit from Oz

Bridgie, me and Lisa

Lisa and I having a fire in the backyard

Isn't life awesome!! And amazing! Really?? I have been back in Canada 3 months today. And it doesn't seem to matter where in the world I am we can all stay connected. In less than 24 hours I can be back in Oz or you from Oz here with me in Canada. Hanging out in my backyard, snow falling, Aussies freezing and cooking griller sausages on the fire. My girlfriend Lisa came to visit for 4 days and it was just like old times. hanging out, no pressure to do anything, chatting, eating Tim Tams (thanks again Lisa), drinking Tim Hortons, eating bagels and cream cheese, watching movies...... just Being!!

It was great having her here and sad to have seen her leave knowing it will be a good year before we see each other again. but thank god for blogs, email and facebook....ha!!

So who's our next visitor???

Superhero Murder Mystery

I am the murderer!! ha!

Mike was Mr Fabulous (of course..ha) and Cameron was Red Wonder a Rapper

So our buddy Mike threw a Superhero Murder Mystery last weekend. We had so much fun. For some reason Cameron and I just love getting dressed up into costumes and getting into characters. Hence our love for Halloween I guess. We had a great time I was Blue Blaze and Cameron was Red Wonder the Rapper. I ended up being the guilty murderer which was fun. Great fun, great friends, great food (terrible P and J shot thanks to the Jester) and lots of fun!!

Steve the Playwrite

This past weekend Cameron and I along with family and friends went to support our brother-in-law Steve who had a play selected for a scripts at work program at Red Deer College. We were able to watch a dramatic reading of the last part of Steve's new play. WOW!!! very cool and very thought provoking. I cant wait for someone to pick it up and put the play on in full length to watch it all out together. The play is called Tumaini. Well done Steve... we are extremely proud of you and want you to know how wonderfully talented you are.

Easter 2009 in Leduc

Happy Easter everyone. Cameron and I enjoyed the first 2 days of the extra long weekend in Red Deer with the Wiebes, dark chocolate easter egg hunt and drinking beer in the sun.

On Easter Sunday we drove to Leduc to spend the night with my Aunt Hazel and Uncle Dave and all the girls and add-ons. Its growing as a family (husbands, boyfriends and babies) so it was very fun and busy. The huge meal was delicious and the mud cake desert was AWESOME!! and then after desert Cameron and I found out the easter bunny came to visit us and left a bunch of treats on our bed....ha!!

On Easter Monday we met Cheryl, Chris and Abby for lunch and then Cameron took me birthday present shopping. Of course I went straight to Lululemon and got spoilt....yoohoo!!

So all in all it has been a fabulous extra long Easter weekend and tomorrow Cameron starts work. Man how sweet it is!! (Literally ..... soooooo much chocolate)

University pays off

I just want to congratulate Cameron on getting a wonderful job when we thought it wouldn't happen and share this great news with our friends and family.
As you may know we are currently in Red Deer, Alberta and to be honest Cameron and I thought we wouldn't be staying here cause the likeliness of him getting a job in his field was pretty slim. BUT Cameron is now a Multimedia Design Specialist for a media and sound company in Canada. SWEET!!! So we are renovating our studio and super excited to move back in there and be debt free in 12 months. OH YEAH!! How great life is to us!!!

The week everything changes for 2009

So I was talking to my sister-in-law today (Hi Em) and she was saying that this is the week that 2009 is gonna become the amazing year we all thought it was going to be. I am very excited for this week to happen then....
It seems to me that 2008 was a hard or some would say shit year for most people, Cameron and I definately included. Pressure, loss of job, hard new lessons, big decisions to make with unknown results, scrubbing toilets, loss of friends, disloyalty......
But 2008 also held wonderful events and moments such as Cameron's graduation, a trip to Norfolk Island, a trip to Daydream Island, my first private helicopter experience, made new friends, time with my family, Cameron got tons of diving done in some amazing places and we both have our health.
So 2009 as of March 30th ....
what is in store???
I hope everyone is having the amazing year 2009 is going to be!!
