(don't worry, we got it out of her mouth the second it went in there!!!)

Friday night photos - Junos

Me (slightly afraid to get too close to Sass), Amy, Michelle, Terri, Angela
and of course our stars, Sass Jordan and Flex Farley. Sass and I are practically sisters. hahaha

Amy and I, practicing our red carpet walk. we wear our sunglasses at night... HOT!!!




A most beautiful Juno Ice Sculpture!
Note the limo. Not a huge sight for Saskatoon.



Us ladies and a random guy, in front of the most beautiful sculpture!




As close as we ever got to the promiscuos girl herself, Nelly Furrrrrrrtado.

Amy and I again, being foolish schoolgirls.



My beauty friend Angela, and I! At The Ivy.

Lovely ladies, Kristin and Michelle. Delightful!

reservations under "hotties"

so i was trying to make this look fun, you know, some pics to the left, some center, some to the right.... it totally didn't work. the funness shines through anyway.
girls night = total success.
there was myself, Lynnel, Jenna + baby Haylie, Kerri, Sarah, Kerilyn + baby Akele, Lilian, Cory + baby Tayah, Laura, Michelle, Danielle, Adrienne, Katie, Coralie, Colette, and Sarah Jane. We went to Alexanders, a perfect place for the start of girls night.
jeff and i actually went there for supper at 6 and i had the most delicious food EVER (my new fav restaraunt, how did i not know how good the food was there???). we were joined by a very creepy man who wouldn't leave us alone but we had a good laugh over it anyway. jeff was outta there as soon as the first girl arrived :)
the kitchen guys called us "the hot table". that was pretty obvious. just check out our hottness:

(Lynnel did so good. she only texted her new boyfriend ONCE! i was so proud.)

Haylie

Christmas Pictures

Haylie - the most gorgeous Christmas baby ever...

(this might be the best picture I've ever taken - I need KAG's photoshop to take out my mom's hand and the yellow baby blanket!!!)

My bro - Phil,
Sis - Jenna,
Brother in Law - Kyle

On Christmas morning
(above) I'm confident enough to put pre-showered pictures of myself :) he he. I just had to show off my most luxurious-ever robe that Jeff gave me for Christmas. I LOVE LOVE IT.

And Haylie looks so cute too.

This was taken Christmas Eve.

Baby had enough celebrating.

(above) Jenna, my Mom, and I playing Cranium. We lost.

(below) Kyle, a very overexcited Matt, Phil, Kayden and a barely there pic of Dad.

(above) the only pic taken of Jeff and I, and it's blurry. And I'm doing the over-smiling thing. Taken on Dec 23, as Jeff went home on the 24th. He's wearing the sweater I bought him, and proudly displaying the gift certificate for the Fishing Hole, along with his stocking that was jammed packed full of fun stuff. Lynnel and I also went together and bought him a little golf package - hat, oilers ball marker and golf balls for his birthday which is on Christmas Eve. Yes Lynnel. She insisted on paying for part of it because she wanted to get him a gift! It was cute of her. And also great for me.
I am holding the teddy bear that came with my 14 k white gold necklace that I am wearing, an awesome electric blanket to keep me warm and cozy at night (it's incredible), and a gift certificate for La Senza. The little green box is a fishing hook that was actually a joke.
He also surprised me on Christmas morning with the robe in the picture above that I had been begging for since September.

Haylie and Kayden in the play thing I bought for Haylie for Christmas. Haylie's sleeper says "Baby's First Christmas" and it was pretty cute.

So all in all, Christmas was just wonderful. I went to bed last night thinking it had been a perfect day besides Jeff not being there. We opened gifts from the family and mom and dad had bought me this absolutely gorgeous glass jewelry box from the Bombay company, along with some beautiful jewelry to put in it (seems appropriate doesn't it?!). I think the tassle is going to have to come off soon :) The parents also got me one of the most fun-filled stockings ever, with lots of chocolates, Body Shop goodies, scrapbooking supplies, lotions and potions, etc, etc. Phil got me the Snow Patrol CD, Matt got me 3 very trendy picture frames from Twisted Goods, and Jenna bought me a NYC calender and a girly book to waste my time on which I love. I still have a gift coming from Jeff's mom and dad.

I feel a little bit spoiled rotten this year.

After presents we had a huge delicious brunch and spent the afternoon relaxing, napping and doing whatever. We went for Christmas dinner at the Hilton and it was amazing and lovely and elegant. Nobody minded that we didn't have supper at home one bit. Then we went through the Enchanted Forest, supposedly the biggest light show in Canada, which is always a good Christmas thing to do. After that we came home and watched "Miracle on 34th Street" which really puts a smile on anyones face :) Oh I'm being so cheezy.

But it really was a great Christmas! I think I'll spend my last day off cleaning my very messy room, trying to figure out You Tube to download a very funny little video of Kayden to share with you all, and eating leftovers. PERRRRRRFECT!

So maybe for the last time (this year anyway).... Merry Christmas everyone!

Some Pictures

Halloween at Denvers House!


A visit with Carmen and Cate!

And here's my sweet pea.

Well it's been a busy month so far. First Haylie, then my big presentation which as you all know I had been freaking out about. Well it ended up going just fine and I'm so relieved to have it over and done with. It was actually kind of fun. A bit of a rush. I have a bag that says "do something every day that scares you." Well that sure scared me alright but it felt so good to do it and to do it well. I've been running three times a week and rewarded myself with lululemon pants which I basically live in. They're wonderful. School is still insane even without a presentation to deal with and I'm tired all the time but feel a bit rejuvinated after the long weekend. Thanksgiving was perfect. I got to see Kristy-Anne and also Tania who just got engaged last week! Both of them were delightful as always! And there was plenty of family time watching football and a couple movies, eating lots of good food, playing games and all that fun stuff. And holding Haylie. I barely did any homework and allowed myself to read War and Peace for the weekend. Perfect. So that's all for now, I'll let the pictures do the rest of the talking.
Love me.

Starting with little Haylie Anne Jade. So precious. She is beautiful isn't she?

Hehe, not as beautiful in this picture but Jenna is holding her a little bit funny.

A cute picture I think!

I love her eyebrows in this. She already has so many funny faces

and expressions!!!

A lovely visit with Kristy-Anne and Lynnel, also Jenna and myself
at Boston Pizza over Thanksgiving Weekend.

Nana giving Haylie a sponge bath. She almost looks like she is smiling here!
And just look at that curly hair!

Jenna and "the kids" in the back of Kyle's big truck. Both of them were fast asleep. Kayden was so disappointed that he missed the trip "downtown" when I went to pick up my new lululemon pants last week. Jenna just drove around the block instead of parking since the little ones were sleeeping.


I love Saskatoon in the fall! It's so darn pretty. This is the street by the university where I park my car every day and get $6.00 parking tickets at least once a week!


University of Saskatchewan


This is Lynnel and I trying on $70 masks at Winners! We were having a blast! Too bad they're so expensive. They'd be fun to have around Halloween time.


This is Angela (aka Angelina Jolie) and me. I am a bridesmaid in her wedding next August. This was at her engagement party last weekend.
She just became an auntie this weekend!


Me and my man. Had to include one of us too. I love us. haha.
My hair looks so short in this but really its just the top layer
sticking out of my bunnyhug.
Anyways. No one else would probably notice that.
What a handsome couple!

i simply cannot stop taking pictures
