beautiful sunshine...please stay




The weather has been wonderful and I want it to stay. I am dreaming about the summer and all of the adventures I would like to have this summer.




Now Nath will probably have the summer off and our ideas of adventures are kind of different. He has been watching this documentary type show/reality show called man vs wild.


In this show this man travels all over the world, he gets dropped off in the most remote and difficult places to survive from the desert to glaciers. The point of each episode is to teach us all watching specific survival skills on how to get food water and of course how to make it out alive. I will never be interested in drinking my own urine or squeezing out camel dung so I can survive on the juices. I think my favorite was where he skinned a dead sheep, some how he skinned it perfectly so that it was the exact shape of a sleeping bag and he just turned it inside out so the fluffy wool was on the inside, he called it his sheeping bag. There was one episode where he found a dead camel and to sleep he carved out the insides and crawled inside to sleep. No thank you.




Anyway since Nath started watching this our little plans of hiking and camping have drastically changed. I am pretty sure I am not invited on the hiking trips planned now, I think I am too much of a princess for that.




I want to camp like crazy though actually i would like a repeat of the camping trip we had last year at stamp falls. So beautiful out there and the most amazing sound being so close to the water.So hopefully the weather will stay and we can plan the summer out soon! I am also very excited about the summer wedding at the end of August too, it should be a summer of partying!




It was the most beautiful morning yesterday when i drove nath to work. I wish every morning was this pretty, the mountains and the sun were so amazing.....so I had to take pictures.

Yesterday I was able to visit my friends at the zoo. I went with my mom, my sister in law and her mom who is visiting from England and of course Connor who is the cutest sweetest little man ever. I love the zoo!!!!!!!Not as much as the aquarium but so close, these are the places you get to go and be a kid and I am a kid I need theses places just so I can be the real me!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love the giraffe and I want one, but we aren't allowed a dog so I have a feeling the giraffe is probably out of the question. I am supposed to be writing out my devotional for tomorrows youth night but instead I am on here blogging, my mind is very busy today.


Nath is just about out of work the bridge is just about done and we are trying to decide what we should do, Steph and Jon are getting married in a few months, so there are a few things to plan and we are just to figure out what God would like us to do, so we are going to knock on a whole bunch of doors and see what opens and what our options are. If you have a moment and your praying please add us to your list, direction would be great.


I am excited for the summer and the plans we are going to make, I am excited to have Nath off for the summer or at least part of it! I want to camp like crazy and enjoy the sun which I really hope is going to visit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The new cat I want...............

I found a poem I love today, this is the cat that I want to have. I loved talking to my cat when I lived at home and sometimes I enjoyed so much that she never really said anything back, but then I read this poem and for today I want a kitten just like this one.


My kitten won't stop talking.
She just prattles night and day.
She walks around repeating
nearly everything I say.
My kitten never says, "Meow."
She never even purrs.
She mimics me instead in that annoying voice of hers.
She waits for me to speak,
and then she copies every word,
or begs me for a cracker,or says, "I'm a pretty bird.
"I'm not sure what to do, and so I simply grin and bear it.
She's been this way since yesterday;
that's when she ate my parrot.
