Yay...Mountains again!


It's all booked. Our flights. Our car rental. Our hotel. Our itinerary. It wasn't too fun planning...the prices of EVERYTHING kept fluctuating from minute to minute, and I am not exaggerating...I called more than 12 hotels before finding one that 1. wasn't over $300.00 a night 2. completely sold out...booked solid (how can there be THAT many people staying in hotels in downtown Vancouver, even if it's a long weekend???). Everything is coming out to be more than we intially wanted to spend...BUT...i figure this is probably going to be our LAST holiday as a twosome-non-parents...so I think we can splurge a little bit. Our hotel is in the West End of Vancouver, blocks from the beach, funky gay district, and many cafes and restaurants...so fun! I can't wait to see everyone! Our week is jam-packed...two days in Vancouver to see friends, one day in Whistler/Pemberton enjoying beautiful BC just the two of us , two days in Mission to see Rob's family, and a few days in Penticton to see my sister/family!!! We've honestly missed BC (and the people we love there) tons since we've moved!

Hi Joyce. Can't wait to see you soon. That's great news that you got a hotel room booked. We solved our hotel room problem too for this weekend and I'm less cranky today...(or at least for the moment). Talk to you soon.

In response to your questions, I kill bugs EVERY day in my house. Ants are the bane of my exsistence. Just be grateful you don't have mice. Not that I do, but, who wants mice.

And also in the picture of me I am eating caramel popcorn. It had melted in the sun to form large globs of caramel. mmmmmmm......
