So I'm married ;)

Do I look any different?? :o

No? I don't feel any different either. The main difference to me is just thinking that I now have a 'husband' and that I'm now a 'wife'. Weird...

But well, I am married and so far so good :D Though it's basically only been 2 weeks so far...

I had some time off of work after the wedding, which was awesome, and I just got back this past Wednesday. Scott went off to work on Tuesday to cover for someone, and he gets back today - yay!

What can I say... it was an awesome day basically! Tons of support from family and friends, and everything went surprisingly smooth considering how packed the day was. The weather was a little overcast...but that actually ended up being pretty nice for not only pictures, but also aiding in not being too roasting hot. ;)
Thanks to all who were able to be a part of it, and all the hard work that was contributed. I especially thank those who traveled to be a part of my day - love you!

One thing I noticed upon returning...is that I actually reached my 200th post while I was away (2 posts ago I believe...). SO yay me for reaching 200 posts!



Another thing I noticed...I have a ton of blog reading to catch up on! Jeez... I didn't realize how many blogs I read. *.*

Other than that, life has basically been continuing as per ush! Still trying to get everything settled in the new place, still enjoying the sun whenever possible, and still trying to enjoy things to the fullest!

Hope all is well out there! What've all you been up to the past few weeks??

Peace for meow :)!

Uhhhh ya...hey there

Basically...I've been busy. Not overly stressed, just lots going on. One of the main things being Stampede!
Scott and I went Friday to wander around the market and park and hit the grandstand show (as Scott had tickets for buying the new truck). Monday I worked a half day and then headed back to Stampede (because I had some family going {nice to see you all! :D}) and to hit some rides! We also had a couple friends join us for a bit.
Anyways...we didn't go on a ton of rides, but it was still a fun time. But boy...was it HOT - real hot. I wanted to take another gun picture to replace last years (my facebook profile picture) but alas, I didn't. Oh well, no changing it for now I suppose.
So, we walked a ton...spent a pretty decent chunk of change...had delicious deep fried foods (and lots of ice cream, and lemonade)...sweat buckets...saw awesome fireworks...enjoyed massage chairs...lusted over the massage chairs...but mostly, just had a good time :)

Here's a few pictures from that:


These dudes are creepy... A million times creepier in person. At least.
Sweet little dummy...
Scott and I on a ride...I'm a dummy too.
:D
What have you been up to? Are YOU going to Stampede? And how's your summer been so far?

Yesterday, Scott and I got an internet guy to come in...so we now have that taken care of, which is nice. 
We also got to go to Lake Midnapore with Scott's (and my future) sister in law and and niece (so cute). It was awesome, relaxing, and super hot. Then we got to spend a little time with them at their house :) Annnddd drink slurpee's. 
** TODAY JULY 11 IS FREE SLURPEE DAY AT 7/11 (first 1000 customers)**

Other than all this...just still trying to get things sorted in the apartment (kind of), get all wedding things together, and also have a good time.

Hope you're enjoying the heat!

Ta ta for meow :)!

PS. I'm getting married in 3 DAYS! *.*

ABC about me!

 Some ABC's about me and what's been happening lately.


A - A nice day on the beach. And luckily for me, in August I'll get some of those :D

B - Biking and bum workouts. Yesterday I went for a little bike ride, and a long walk and did a little bum workout. Gotta love the bum burn ;) (Unless it's a rug burn on your bum... I would imagine that to be unpleasant).

C - Cookies. I have a niece that has been obsessed with cookies lately and talks about them quite frequently. So cookies were bound to come up. C is for cookies.

D - Driving with the window down and the tunes playing... it's just kind of a peaceful relaxing time (mainly when it's not in city traffic...).

E - Exercise! Love it. I'm grateful when I'm well enough and have the time to do so :)

F - Family and friends. I've always appreciated them...but they've also been especially helpful in regards to my wedding. Thanks everyone! Love you!

G - Groceries. A full fridge and lots of options. I like that.

H - Having someone there for me almost all the time. Scott...I love you and appreciate all you do for me.

I - I think this is a joke. You obviously know it's ice cream -.- duh. (Home made FTW!)

J - Jumping and leaping! Lately I've been going on lots of walks (and also watching sytycd)...and for some reason I've been enjoying jumping around and being a weirdo. Normal, right?

K - Knives. Good knives are wonderful things! Not so wonderful? Not using them safely and slicing your finger... :( (you can use your imagination for what I was doing).

L - Laughing :D Oh how laughing can change/brighten up a day.

M - Market mall Petland. Oh how I love going to see and hold the pups and kittens :3

N - Not having to set an alarm clock. Those glorious days when you can sleep 'til your hearts content!

O -Opening mail...and packages! It's just kind of exciting :)

P - Personal pizza, home made pizza! That's what we had last night - delish :3

Q -  Quiet time to myself. I don't like it all the time...but sometimes, it's really really nice! Need to recharge my Trudyness.

R - Rain no more! RAIN GO AWAY! WE'VE HAD ENOUGH! Kthanks.

S - Summer & sunshine :D If only some sunshine would stick around here...we've had a few decently warm days, but not much sun :(

T - TV...namely SYTYCD  (as S was already taken) ;)

U - Upper floor heat. As in the upper floor of a house being unbearably warm and uncomfortable. (Like out in Strathmore {they have no A/C}...it gets so hot by the end of the day! Thank goodness I get to sleep in the basement...)

V - Vehicles...new vehicles. (Scott gets to pick up his new truck today - GMC Sierra 1500). Makes me get the itch for a new vehicle, not enough to actually scratch the itch though...just make it mildly uncomfortable (if that makes sense at all...).

W - WAX! As in waxing my legs. Let me tell you something... I hadn't shaved my legs in a long time, over a month - possibly 2! Anyways, disgusting or not, my leg hairs were at maximum capacity! And it didn't really matter because no one really saw them and I didn't care! But yesterday, I looked down at my legs and thought to myself...Wow, that's gross - I can't take it anymore. But I couldn't just shave it away, I had to wax it! So a niece and I biked to Wal Mart, some supplies were acquired, and then it was back home to get down to business! Anyways, be disgusted if you wish...I was too.
PS, this was NOT just one pull...more like half a calf
And then the irritation of the waxing began to set in! (As you can see by the little red bumpies).
But the result was smooth, much less hairy legs ;)

X - X-citement (what, was I supposed to put xylophone?!!) for the wedding, our upcoming vacation, time off work, and a new life to spend with Scott :)

Y - You! To the few people that read, thanks :)

Z - ZZZ! Sleep. I haven't been getting as much as I'd like...but life is busy and things have been good - so it's ok! Soon I'll be able to get some! (Hopefully...).

Byeas for meow :)!

A week!

Day 18 is here with only 7 days (one week!) until Christmas! Ah! This week will either crawl by at an unbelievably slow pace OR it will rip by way too fast! I'll take fast if you please ;) I want this week of work to be done, I want my fellow to be back, and I want Christmas to be here! But soon enough, this will all come to be.

On the 6th day of Christmas a Trudy gave to you, 6 snuggly pillows, 5 kinder eggggs, 4 awesome nut trays, 3 French toast, 2 candy canes and a nice, warm, fuzzy toque :D

So today was the last Sunday before Christmas and our church choir sang 'The First Noel' and 'Angels We Have Heard on High'. Anyways, they went...alright. Since we have a lackage of people who come to choir, I've had to sing Tenor...and let's just say 'The First Noel' could've been better. Don't get me wrong, it was still alright.

So tonight I shall do some reading before heading out to the Strathmore to visit some family and do exciting things! (I'll fill you in tomorrow) ;)

Keep it real. Keep listening to Christmas music :D

Byeah for meow :)!

RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME -- I love swimming! And I realized I haven't been in a long long while and I miss it :<. Don't get me wrong, I'm not all that good with my doggy paddling...but I love it nonetheless :3
