Coming Home!

Friday can not come fast enough...I am so excited to go home I can hardly stand it! Not really excited to see everyone in all my 8 month prego glory...but I don't care because I AM GOING HOME!!!
Bring on the sisters, the girlfriends, the shopping, and the good food. I miss so many restaurants! Is that sad that I miss the food? I guess it is allowed when you are pregnant and that is all you think about.
I am technically not supposed to travel but I am risking it so just pray I don't go into labor. My mom thinks it would be great if I did and I told her ok then you are paying the bill! One good thing about socialized medicine FREE Baby.

Hank and I are getting really excited for this baby girl to join us, I feel like it can't come fast enough yet I am not really ready either so I guess I need time. I will finish teaching my aerobics classes in the next two weeks and I think my body is telling me it is about time. I have loved my job here at Heavens Fitness and will continue teaching while on maternity leave and maybe work a little too, we will see.... yet I am really excited to be done for awhile and have time to prepare for this little one to join us.

Thanks for reading my ramblings....SEE YOU SOON!!!!

I love Halloween so much. I was very dissapointed in the lack of trick-or-treaters that came to my house however, now I am stuck with too much candy!!!!
Hope you all survived and are having a good sugar high today.

Nelson Weddings

Well another Nelson took the plunge...I think they might be on a record for the most weddings in one year.
Ingrid and Will got married in Los Angeles on Saturday and it was a beautiful wedding. Hank and I made the trek up and were so glad we did. It was filled with a lot of good times with the Nelson family. Needless to say they know how to party and they are not shy at all. They were married in the Los Angeles temple and then did a ring ceremony and reception at a small unique chapel in Brentwood afterwards. It was a great day and the bride looked absolutely beautiful!
We were happy to be home until we stepped off the plane and it was -6 degrees celsuis...California I want you back!










As you can see we had a good time! All my non wedding photos are not uploading so maybe you will get lucky with a double cali post to come!

Fall Fun

Well here in Calgary it has been so warm these past couple weeks it has felt more like summer then fall, but we decided to kick off the season by heading out to the Calgary Corn Maze with some friends.
I am sorry to admit we did not defeat the corn maze, but we had a blast just hanging out with fun friends....Mason maybe next year we will actually make it through the corn maze and you can claim defeat!






I can't wait for more fun Fall activities to come...it is such a fun time of year!

CRASH

Well it happened I was involved in my first ever car crash! IT WAS NOT MY FAULT which is a huge relief but it was a little scary. Nobody was hurt and I feel just fine but my car is smashed in and Hank is really kicking himself for paying $3000dollars for my new bumper 6 months ago! I was going straight from a two way stop and the other lady was turning left and apparently the sun was in her eyes and she didn't see me. We weren't going very fast but she was driving a huge SUV and unfortunately my little Jetta got smooshed! Today I have had to deal with all the insurance and police reports and calling back and forth and it is not fun. I guess I am glad that nobody was hurt and that me and the baby are fine!



POOR LITTLE JETTA!!!! (actually I am kind of wishing it was totalled, then maybe I could have gotten a new car)

I have a Yard


I have a yard with bushes and trees and grass, I thought this day would never come...but after a few threatening e-mails it happened. Now it actually looks like I live in a house not a dirt pit! YEAH! Backyard still to come but at least it looks pleasant from the street.

Suz was here but now she's gone!


Here is my one picture proof that my cute mom was here to visit me. I am horrible at taking pictures lately but I did get one of my mom in Banff. My favorite part is her E shirt. Whenever she comes and needs a shirt for when we go hiking or biking she borrows this shirt and says I wear my E shirt for my E!
We had a blast shopping, hiking, biking and just hanging out.
I am not going to lie I woke up depressed and lonely today knowing she was gone.
Thanks for coming mom I love you!
