At least my girlfriends would date me!

4 girls. Kelowna. A long weekend. Mad libs. Bieber Fever. 3 hour traffic jams. Dance parties. Cheetahs. Nina Pantazopoulos. Amazing food. High school reunions. Ducks in pools. Police....actually ambulance vehicles. Shopping. Snorting. Stuffy noses and one lost voice. And too many laughing moments to count.

The fact of the matter is, I can't even go back and begin to describe to you the moments that were captured over my long weekend. But I can confidently say it was one of the better ones I have ever had. One of those times in your life where you are grateful for everything around you, and more importantly the people you are with.

Like the Shop Boys say: We partied like rockstars. And I wouldn't have had it any other way.

And in the sound and wise words of Amanda Hooker--"well at least my girlfriends would date me!"

Things I Learned About Myself by Moving 5,000 KM + An Ocean Away from Home

Call me crazy - but 1 month after getting married I told Matt I was ready for an adventure.  As if getting married wasn't a crazy enough adventure!  I learned very quickly after being with Matt that I needed to stop  asking for things because he always had a way of making them happen!  March 2015 a job posting appeared on the island of Kauai.  At first it seemed like a pipe dream...I mean who wouldn't just apply for a job in Hawaii?!  So that is what we did, applied for a job...had 3 long distance interviews...told our families + friends there was "potentially" an opportunity...they flew us out there for a final interview...we had a job offer...and sh!t got real!  After a lot of back and forth we decided to book 2 one way tickets to Kauai.  And here we are, 1 year later; and it's been the biggest adventure of my life so far.  Like most curve balls in life there is always a lesson waiting for you to be learned...so here is what I can honestly say has been my learne

Good things come to those who love....

I believe, or at least I hope that I believe that everyone will fall in love at least once. Others may experience it more, some less. I have no idea where I land on this continuum . I imagine somewhere between never wanting to date again, and wanting it all. Bit of a wide range, but you can never be too hasty! However, there have been a few experiences in which I never wish to relive, in fact even better, I have started to compose a list of things I would rather do than have to be left standing alone at the gas station of love using the self-service pump, aka go through that again! Get a hundred thousand paper cuts on my face Contemplate if everything I though was right is wrong (black is white, up is down, short is long...) Slam my fingers in a door (again and again and again! But only 3 times, any more than that is risking permanent damage) Shove an ice pick under my fingernails Wear black leather in the hottest weather Hit a tree, these fender benders aren't really killing me Ju

The things I am thankful for

Image
With Thanksgiving coming and going this year I was blessed with the opportunity to sit in a room of 20+ people and share and listen to all the things in which the people whom I care the most about are thankful for in their lives. While this list can be entertaining with 9 wonderful nieces and nephews who spout off answers like "chocolate cake", "Auntie Rachel", "Dad" and "Lego", it is also filled with heartfelt answers of family, health, love and appreciation and of course with 4 girls in one family a few tears. I spent this week thinking about the simple things in life I was thankful for.... A brother who who always takes the time to listen Big sisters being patient with little sisters Cab drivers who know when to talk and when to be quiet PVR - so I never have to worry about missing all those girly shows Good friends who always make the bad days seem not so hard and the good days feel like heaven A mom who worries about you night and day but wo
